I liked it. For the most part.

Pretty cool concept. What would it be like to witness a huge monster attacking New York City?

The characters were kinda goofy, and I really didn’t get into the story much. Let’s just say I was glad when the monster finally attacked.

I like movies with endings that leave you wondering. This ending will leave you wondering. You may or may not like that. I did. I wish more movies ended the way this one did, then I’d feel like it is harder to predict movie endings in general.

If you can actually believe that a goofy dude can stay a dedicated camera man through all the experiences that these characters are put through, good for you. I probably would have dropped or broke the camera along the way, myself. The guy with the camera was awfully dedicated to his contributions to new media and society.

If you like sci-fi or monster movies, you should find Cloverfield to be an interesting a short movie watching jaunt.
