It showed the oil drilling rig getting attacked by "something" . It was a news report of sorts, with video footage from a camera phone. Look it up on You Tube....it should be there...
Interesting. I'm a little confused by why there seem to be ninjas on that oil rig when it is attacked..... but whatever.
This is what the monster suppose to look like, Dont know if its true, but they have showed the screening at some campus Spoiler http://zip.4chan.org/tv/src/1200027339683.jpg Spoiler And from IMDB board: Spoiler The movie was FUNNY. Very funny. Mainly because the movie is very REAL... the characters say exactly what you would say to some of your friends. And very suspenseful in scenes, but not as much as a lot of other movies. I mean, they chose to walk down a dark subway tunnel. You know something is going to happen. Anyways, I'm listing a few things about the movie. Read at your own risk. ------SPOILERS------ 1. Yes, the entire movie is from a hand-held camera. And it was AWESOME, though I did honestly get a little motion sick at times. But you really do feel like you're in the movie which is sweet. Leaving the building I kept thinking I was still there (and kept looking over my shoulder!). 2. As I said, the entire movie is from the camera- as in, there is no explanation for anything. It starts off with some small text on a black screen saying something like 'Camera found from formally Central Park' or whatever. And then it starts playing. And it just ends, too. Which is, in my opinion, a little frustrating. 3. Ok, so, what does the monster look like? Well, it's really hard to explain. You never really get a clear shot of it... it's always surrounded by a dust cloud and pops out only for a second (plus it was a HUGE lecture hall and by the time I got in, I was sitting pretty far back ). But from what I saw: It walks on four legs. Has an alien like face (with red sacs on the side of the head that inflate as it breathes). Super long whip like tail. The arms/legs it walks on are very long and some what human like.. maybe ape like. Long fingers that grip on to buildings and such. Hairless. Grey. Some what long face but HUGE jaw (that snaps out like an alligator). 4. Ok, big monsters aren't that scary. But what is? TINY HUMAN SIZED monsters!! (DUNDUNDUUUUN!) Parasites (or babies, who knows) drop off of the monster and turn into spider/crocodile things. They are FAST and MEAN. They're kind of hard to see in the movie since they move/attack so fast, but they have really long snouts and move with multiple arms like a spider. They can hang from the ceiling and their bite as poisionous. They are what made the movie scary for me. 5. The beginning is a little slow. I mean, over all, it's kind of a love story. This guy is leaving for Japan and he broke it off with the girl he loves and they get in a fight at his going-away- party. Then the monster attacks-he gets a call on his phone from her saying she can't move... and he goes (towards the monster) into the city to try and find her.
I just read his review and this movie sounds like it is going to rock. I am so pumped up for this. Why oh why do I have to be in Colombia. Who knows when its going to arrive here.
Take what Harry says with a grain of salt. He's known around AICN.com for being very biased with big-studio movie reviews. I'm not saying that his reviews aren't worth reading, but take what he says in context with other reviews.
He's more likely to be biased when reviewing movies made by his "friends" like Robert Rodriguez, Tarantino, and especially Eli Roth. He doesn't really review many movies anymore, seems like he only reviews movies he liked. Also, practically all movies are in someway connected to a big studio, especially on the distribution end.
Ya I know about Harry's reviews. I've followed that site for a few years. With that being said, I am still really pumped about this flick. The only thing that worries me is if the handheld camera thing is going to get annoying and be all out of focus when your desperate to see detail.
OK there was another review posted on aintitcool a few days ago. This guy is nuts for the film and the spoilers aren't that bad. NSFW Language http://www.aintitcool.com/node/35289
How do you guys put a spoiler tag on??? http://www.slashfilm.com/wp/wp-content/images/cloverfieldmonsterart3.thumbnail.jpg this aparently is what it will look like
I may have to go catch the midnight showing tomorrow night. That second AICN review ratcheted up the 'must see' level 100x. In fact, they tell you it's must see and place it in the same category as iconic sci-fi flicks like The Matrix, Blade Runner and the first two Aliens movies.
I remember one reviewer on AICN said that about Pitch Black. Probably not the same guy though (I hope).
