Guys, go see this movie. It is all kinds of AWESOME!!!

No, it's not better than Deadpool, but don't let that stop you. If you are into good movie making, straight out suspense and fun, got see 10CL. It starts out slow, but then picks up speed until you realize you're into it. Goodman is gold, and the supporting cast is solid as well.

You know what it's about from the trailer, but if you haven't seen it, a young woman has a car accident and a good Samaritan helps her to recover. I will not go beyond that because it would involve spoilers. Suffice it to say it gets interesting from there. Here's a hint, pay attention to details.

I have to say that the script, written by Josh Campbell and Matt Stuecken, was brilliantly developed and laid out, almost as if they were building a movie made with simple Lego bricks. Piece by piece they present the character-driven story, and, trust me, this is not a low rent version of Cloverfield, although, at first glance, it appears to be. Remember, like I said, it's all in the details. I could easily imagine that the writers are Joss Whedon fans, the way this turned out.

Anyway, I could see this easily being a sleeper hit. But, I'm curious as to why they would release it now (a week before the whole Batman v. Superman flick). Do they know something we don't, or did they run out of opening weekends to present their story. This film was good enough to present during the summer season, and, IMHO, it could have done extremely well.

Two thumbs, way up! (with apologies to Siskel & Ebert).

I agree. Great movie. Its a kool idea to hav a movie based on the premis uv another movie, yet not involving the same karakterz.

There coud be an unlimited number uv Cloverfield quazi-sequelz!

Civil War. Probably not the best movie to release in current year, but it does look pretty entertaining...
