It’s fair to say Cloverfield wasn’t a universal hit. In fact, many people hated it. Whether it was because of the handycam style of filming or the way the movie was presented, a lot of people weren’t impressed. I wasn’t amongst that group. I loved Cloverfield, and still watch it regularly at home. So I’m [...]
Cloverfield is a movie which split opinion fairly evenly down the middle when it was released. Some of the people who saw it at the theater complained that the handheld camera style of filming ruined it, making them feel ill in the process. It didn’t have that effect on me, and I consider it a [...]
As Kirsten revealed a few days ago, moviegoers in the U.S heading out to see Iron Man 2 this weekend are in for an added treat. The movie itself is worth watching, but so too is the first teaser trailer for Super 8 which has been sneaked in to the schedule. Super 8 is a [...]
I loved Cloverfield. I still do, actually. And I definitely think there is scope for another movie in the same mold. As do a lot of other people, including the guys who can actually make it happen, namely J.J. Abrams and Matt Reeves, who produced and directed the original respectively. The last we heard anything [...]
Regular readers will know of my love for Cloverfield, the J.J. Abrams monster pic that seemed to divide opinion right down the middle. Some thought it was too short, boring, and gave them motion sickness. While others, such as me, thought it was an entertaining and innovative attempt at bringing the genre bang up-to-date. Those [...]
J.J. Abrams is one hell of a busy man. He always seems to be working, not just on one project but several at once. If he’s not working out how to finish Lost without totally annoying every fan of the series, he’s working on films such as Cloverfield (which I loved but many hated) or [...]
Anyone who reads At The Movies regularly will know that I loved the Cloverfield film. I even went against another writer on the site to give an alternative view of the J.J. Abrams monster flick. And having loved the original, I want a sequel, but it may never happen. We’ve already heard from director Matt [...]
Any hope fans of the original Cloverfield may have had for a quick sequel to be made have seemingly been dashed by director Matt Reeves. Reeves, who was behind the first Cloverfield film along with J.J. Abrams, is using his talent on a different project, meaning any plans for a Cloverfield 2 have been put [...]
Cloverfield was probably my favourite film of last year, and unlike so many who complained of a poor storyline, a crappy monster, and the handheld camera effects making them sick, I found the experience to be utterly absorbing. You can read my review here. The Cloverfield DVD release is very close, coming out in the [...]
I’ve never known a movie to so polarise opinion as JJ Abrams monster flick Cloverfield, which has been out in US theatres for two weeks now. Us Brits had to wait until the 1st February to go and see the film which has as many haters as lovers. I read Angela’s review here on Snarkerati [...]
