Product Description
Director Matt Reeves (THE PALLBEARER) and producer J. J. Abrams (LOST, ALIAS) turn a mysterious monster loose in Manhattan in the disaster flick CLOVERFIELD. The movie begins at a party for Rob (Michael Stahl-David), who has accepted a promotion that will send him to Japan. Hud (T. J. Miller) is entrusted with the responsibility of videotaping the party-and as the trouble grows, he holds on to the camera, recording everything that happens. In fact, the entire movie is seen through the lens of his camera, reminiscent of THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT. As terrified people in a post-9/11 New York City take to the streets, Rob decides to head uptown to try to save Beth (Odette Yustman), the woman he loves, though he's afraid to tell her so. Rob is joined by his brother Jason (Mike Vogel), Jason's girlfriend Lily (Jessica Lucas), Lily's friend Marlena (Lizzy Caplan), and Hud, who has a thing for Marlena. Rob is determined not to give up, even after almost being crushed by the Statue of Liberty's head and as the military shows up to force evacuation of the city. Reeves and first-time screenwriter Drew Goddard, who previously has written television episodes of such series as BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, ANGEL, ALIAS, and LOST, focus in on the central aspect of the story: people trying to survive the monster attack. Very little else is explained, since the story is told completely through the video camera. And there is no additional score to heighten the drama; the only music is that which is picked up by Hud and the camera's microphone, including snippets of songs by Kings of Leon, Parliament Funkadelic, Of Montreal, and others. The anticipation of CLOVERFIELD's release was enhanced by a viral marketing campaign that included Web sites built around the main characters and even the fictional drink Slusho. Michael Stahl-David, Jessica Lucas, Odette Yustman, Lizzy Caplan, T.J. Miller star. 84 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital 5.1, French Dolby Digital 5.1, Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English, French, Spanish; audio commentary; featurettes; deleted scenes; alternate endings.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Screenplay, acting, improvisation, special effects, and especially cinematography all done very well by people with proven track records.
Looking forward to Cloverfield 2
That was the goal... and they succeeded.
I just watched this... LOVED IT!
I live in Manhattan, so get readily upset when Hollywood screws up the logic & easily checked day-to-day geography facts of NYC. This was spot on. Every step of the way. They re-created as close to a real NY, NY, as they could on a soundstage. Kudos to the Tech & Design personnel on this movie. ONE glitch (for the sales / product placement office): NYC does NOT put ads on the outer tunnel walls in subway stations -- even the older, quirky stations. They'd be on the walls on the platforms somewhere... A minor quibble, but annoying. Otherwise, spot on...
1st consensus complaint issue: the "hand-held camera" approach. To all those bothered by it -- GO WATCH ANOTHER MOVIE!
The shaky, unnerving, claustrophobic environment that approach creates WAS THE WHOLE POINT, FOOL!!!
9/11 came at us out of nowhere. The Chelsea bombings this weekend came at us out of nowhere. The Boston Marathon bombing, the Great Johnstown Flood for pete's sake. All chaotic & out of nowhere to those running for their lives from... WHAT?? At that moment, you know Nothing. There are No Answers. Everyone is asking Everyone Else. The world around you becomes chaos, people make plenty of logical-but-realllllly bad decisions they pay for later and nothing remains familiar. THAT is the unnerving goal of the camera effect here -- shot by skilled cinematographers, NOT the cast. Every jerk of the camera was highly planned & carried out, not happenstance.
Did I find it bothersome. unnerving & scary? Of course. But then I was SUPPOSED TO...! That WAS THE POINT! I finally adjusted to it. Nobody ever promised you a Rose Garden. Go find another flick if you want to be spoon fed.
Hadn't realized that the Time Warner towers at Columbus Circle were that old. 2007... Thought they were newer. Just getting old, I guess...
My wife just informed me that we'd seen it before. I had echoes of "maybe --" but I remembered not one bit of specifics. So, like the really good Tokyo monster movies, this may be one of those you can happily see 20 times & have it be fresh every time... Good scary, happily vapid fun!
Kudos to all concerned...
Abrams/Reeves totally get it. Totally get it. Here is a movie that is from start to finish in a highly stylized hand-held technique, and it is night and day, completely different from, and other than, shakey cam, because Abrams/Reeves totally get it. I hope this will be the spike in the heart of shakey cam, and that we will never see another shakey cam movie, ever. Maybe they'll even gather up all the existing shakey cam movies and burn them.
This movie is gripping, captivating. I can't take my eyes off of it. It's not trying to be realistic. We're not supposed to think this is really a guy continuing to shoot a mini cam through the attack of a monster on New York. It's trying to be a stylization of realistic, and it succeeds brilliantly. And It's not trying to be another Mothra/Godzilla/King Kong. It's trying to be a stylization of Motha/Godzilla/King Kong, and it succeeds brilliantly.
This movie is fresh and new, intelligent and vibrant. Indeed, it takes everything that is ugly (shakey cam) and cliche (monsters eating the city), stylizes it, and spins it into a new fabric that feels good the moment you put it on, like a new friend you want to be with all the time. This is the long awaited new old days of movie making. Abrams/Reeves have proven that movies don't have to be stupid just because they're made in the 21st century.

Une remarque quand même, quand on le visionne bien tranquille chez soi avec la lumière allumée et sur un écran plat ce film ne fera pas le même effet (d'où l'intérêt de le voir au ciné, mais pour certains c'est trop tard...) En vidéoprojection, avec un écran de bonne taille et dans le noir ça le fera déjà plus, donc tout dépend des conditions...
Pour la qualité d'image, c'est très bien, c'est le rendu d'image que vous pourriez obtenir vous-même avec un petit caméscope HD. Puisque de toute façon c'est ainsi que le film a été tourné... ce qui confère dautant plus de réalisme à ce qu'il nous donne à voir.
Bonne séance !
the cameraman is the brother of robert hawkins [not the character from the tv show jericho!] a new york resident who is about to leave for japan to go and work there. The brother is recording his last days in new york before leaving, ending in a going away party that lots of his friends and acquaintances attend. as it's a camcorder tape it's been recorded over an earlier lot of recording on the tape, and some of that occasionally comes through, showing happy times for robert with a lady friend he has since broken up with.
and there are discussions about that relationship at the party.
this takes up roughly the first fifteen minutes of the film, and you may start to get a little impatient at the lack of action.
but then things change all of a sudden when the earth shakes and the lights go out. something is attacking manhattan, and robert and friends are caught in the middle of it. he receives a call from his former girlfriend who is trapped and in need of help, and determines to cross a city in chaos to get to her. the recording charts what happened next.
the film runs for roughly eighty one minutes [that timing includes some lengthy end credits] and as you can see from other reviews it's very much a love it or hate it movie. my rating of five stars reflects the fact that I loved it. It was a throughly involving cinematic experience. and a far better monster movie [as that's what's attacking the city] than the 1998 american godzilla movie.
maybe, based on all the reviews here, you should make up your own mind. just don't give me an unhelpful vote because you disagree with my rating.
one important thing to note: watch to the very end of the final credits. and listen carefully.
This is the single disc edition of the film, and the only extras are as a follows:
a commentary from the director.
And what they call cloverfield supplemental files. if you switch the option for these on an icon will appear on screen at certain points, and clicking on that will stop the movie and bring up a short production feature on how the scene in question was made. these are decent little documentaries.
the only language track on this disc is in english.
and the film has subtitles in english danish finnish norwegian and swedish.
and english subtitles for the commentary.
cloverfield is one of those movies that come along every so often that are a cinematic event and something a little new. and something new is always worth the risk
