Movie Time: Cloverfield Review
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!!! These words kick Paramount's Cloverfield into high gear folks and that is exactly what this movie is, HIGH GEAR! AFC Reviews the 2007 Summer Blockbuster which is on it's way to DVD. And don't forget to check out HasbroToysShop.com for their exclusive Cloverfield Monster!

This one certainly doesn't start in high gear Figure Fans. We start off super slow with a celebration and quick cuts of an old home movie. First impression is "well, where's the monster?" Be patient. It's coming.

First it feels like an earthquake, then the head of the statue of liberty comes crashing by your front door! From there it's all out madness as our heroes attempt to escape New York City and get the heck away from the monstrous Clover!

The movie is extremely well done, and very original in the sense that it appears to be a video found by the government after clean up of a "classified" event which takes place in New York City, NY. There are no credits, no crazy camera pans and zooms, but there is plenty of action and story to keep you sitting on the edge of your seat.

The end of the movie leaves a little to be desired, but the door is open for a sequel and we hope that sequel becomes a reality!

Cloverfield is a thrill ride from (almost) the start to the very end. The monster is awesome and truly unique. The actors do a terrific job working with nothing but green screen at times (you really have to check out the documentaries!). It's a masterpiece and a sure future classic monster movie.
