Diagonaldi Very well executed

GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

waxysdargle i gave this movie 1 out of 10 stars because there wasn't an option for 0 stars.this film is basically... no wait... literally about two girls having fun pretending to be reporters or something. there are plenty of girl moments to be had here. they obviously just wanted to have fun. what was really interesting was the way none of their conversations were relevant. they spent a lot of time bitching at each other about the camera. it was pivotal at times, that camera. these girls look HOT when they smear bits of soot and fake blood on themselves. i was totally jelous of the white guy that was hanging with them, until he died inexplicably.a bunch of stuff doesn't happen, and then i think they died. i'm not sure. i'm not sure about anything anymore. there's a little piece of me that now just wants to move to tokyo and have fun with girls.feces for the mind.

okamsrazor22 I watched this because it was on Netflix and I was bored. The synopsis given by Netflix seemed decent, so I gave it a shot. The movie was just unwatchable. It was boring the entire way through and the acting is beyond terrible.It is seriously a movie about two women (in their late 20's?) who run around with the worlds worst camera. The movie uses the normal mockumentry features of the camera being shaky and some video being garbled...but this film overdoes it. The camera seems to go black, freeze footage, have pixilation, almost the entire way through. It is as though the filmmakers believed that video cameras in 2003 were not good for anything more than a paperweight.The film has numerous factual errors in it that could have been avoided with 5 seconds of research. My favorite is the characters referring to uploading the video to "Youtube" despite youtube not being founded when the movie was supposed to be taking place.The film starts bad, stays bad, and ends bad. There is nothing in it that gets "better" no matter how hopeful you try to be.

otaking241 There are two big surprises that came at the end of this movie: 1) realizing that they managed to stretch it to almost 90min and 2) this thing had a half-million dollar budget?! Here's how Monster got made: 2 girls with no acting chops and rudimentary filmmaking skills saw Cloverfield and thought, 'Hey, we can do that!' At least they managed to swindle a trip to Japan out of whoever provided the funding for this thing, though you'd barely know it. Over half the outdoors, identifiable scenes were filmed in LA's Little Tokyo, complete with LA skyline in the background! Gawd. Add to this the gobbledy-guk the one girl tries to pass off as Japanese, the non-Japanese actors passed off as Japanese, generally awful acting and persistent 'film damage' issues and you're left with an unwatchable mess. The 'creature' is non-existent, the special effects are generally poor, and there's no drama of any kind.Nitpicky issues notwithstanding, the film could be good if it had had some decent acting, a single interesting character or any semblance of a plot. Instead, we're left with two plain-looking, flat-affect, uninteresting girls stumbling their way through ninety-minutes of dull meandering through poorly set up scenes. Please give me the last hour and a half of my life back.

ricburger I don't know if this piece of drek was entirely coincidental to "Cloverfield" or not, but it doesn't feel that way. I understand when disaster happens, video equipment will get damaged and there needs to be some realism. But at least in "Cloverfield" you could follow the story. The camera malfunctions came so often that it was like watching a badly put together nickelodeon. The malfunctions themselves seemed to be unrealistic at times. I will admit the brief shots of the tentacled monster were not bad, but if it's impossible to follow the story, then nothing else matters. Oh, one more thing. On a movie this bad, I really don't want to see a behind the scenes documentary. That's like pouring acid on a wound.
