Cloverfield...

...Just saw it this morning...and it's awesome! The hype is justified. Cloverfield is like Blair Witch crossed with 9/11 mashed in with The Towering Inferno and Godzilla. It's nerve-shredding, disorienting, relentlessly, bravely bleak stuff.

With its deliberate invocation of the 2001 attacks on New York and its unremittingly apocalyptic tone - there's no explanation for the attack or the...creature that carries it out and definitely (?) no happy ending - Cloverfield is the disaster movie of and for the 21st century. Lost's JJ Abrams has done it again. This is a fantastic movie.
