just caught the show.. i thot it was quite nice though. pretty realistic... since it was filmed using those home video cameras

To accomplish great things we must not only act but also dream, not only plan but also believe.

Cloverfield Viewing Tips

I saw Cloverfield at an advanced screening last night. I won't review the movie yet, other to say it was awesome, but I'd like to offer some tips for when you go to see it.

1. You may get nauseous. I was...I didn't throw up or anything, but Dramamine may be your best friend. FWIW, I was fine when I saw Blair Witch, so YMMV.
2. Look for someone passed out on a couch at the party. That's all I'm saying.
3. Stay for the end credits. All the way to the end.
4. Have Fun!

LOS ANGELES - MONSTER movie 'Cloverfield,' about a giant lizard's attack on Manhattan, debuted at the top of North American box office this weekend, according to preliminary figures on Sunday.

The low-budget depiction of the fictional attack, filmed as if captured on a hand-held video camera, pulled in some US$41 million (S$59 million), according to box office tracker Exhibitor Relations.

Wedding comedy '27 Dresses' about a woman's frantic search for the perfect bridesmaid's frock, came in second place with US$22.4 million.

In third place was 'The Bucket List' at US$15.2 million, starring Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman as elderly cancer patients on a quest to whittle down their life-long wish list before they 'kick the bucket.'

In fourth place was 'Juno,' the acclaimed independent comedy-drama about a teenager attempting to cope with an unplanned pregnancy, which took in US$10.3 million at US and Canadian movie houses.

Nicolas Cage's action film 'National Treasure: Book of Secrets' was in fifth place with US$8.1 million in ticket sales, taking its five-week total past US$198 million.

'First Sunday,' about a deadbeat dad scrambling to come up with bundle of quick cash, earned US$7.8 million for sixth place.

Debuting in seventh place was 'Mad Money' an American remake of a British TV movie, at US$7.7 million.

'Alvin and the Chipmunks' came in eighth place with US$7 million, netting a total of US$196 million since its release last month.

'I Am Legend,' starring box office icon Will Smith came in ninth place with US$5.1 million, for a six-week blockbuster total of US$247.7 million.

Rounding out the top 10 at were 'Atonement' (US$4.8 million); 'There Will Be Blood' (US$3.1 million) and 'One Missed Call' (US$2.8 million) in 12th place. -- AFP

The movements and jerking of the cam throughout the movie gave me a headache and made me wanna puke.
Seriously guys, worst movie ever!!
Damn the producers who made the teaser so mysterious. I guess thats the only way to make people watch.
