So, after I did my civic duty and did the caucus thing (see my comment over at Bmac’s if you’re curious) I went to the movies to see Cloverfield. My one word review: Huh! Another member in the audience had a one word review at the end too: “Boo.”
It wasn’t what I expected, although I’m not sure what I was expecting. Overall I really liked it and it was really very suspenseful. Even more so than usual for me because I was having a mild anxiety attack during the whole thing too. The anxiety thing wasn’t related to the movie though – I started feeling weird before I even got to the casino. Anyway – a good movie if extremely unconventional. I think that’s what was the real surprise for me. I wouldn’t have guessed you could get a major nationwide released movie made this way. I hate movie spoilers, so I won’t say anything more about it.
