2008 is looking promising so far. Even this early, a completely original monster movie has graced theaters, and that is Cloverfield. The handheld camerawork is brilliant and unique, and thus is the best part of the movie. The plot was great, the action was engaging, even if you didn't want it to be (because the cameraman certainly did) The monster was interesting; not terrifying, but interesting, and completely original, which is a plus. All the characters are unknowns, which makes it seem like a real tape filmed by real New Yorkers during a real disaster, without the F-bomb. The search for Beth subplot got a bit too conveniently dramatic near the end of it, in my opinion, but the director made up for that with the fantastically creepy ending, which leaves you thinking. Keep the original movies coming, 2008; this was one good monster movie.
8/10
