Obviously you...We won't attempt to convert you. Obviously you're very passionate about 'Blair Witch'. It would be like getting a cat person to like dog. It is absolutely fine by us if you didn't enjoy this.<br /><br />'Blair Witch' for us was a low budget film lacking in story and directorial skills. All we remembered from that film was some guy pissing in the dark. 'Cloverfield' had many memorable moments and that is hard to achieve in an action film. We reconsidered and are staying put with our rating.1minutefilmreviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809587879409604427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904006883321855933.post-34634736642404785532010-03-11T04:10:18.693-08:002010-03-11T04:10:18.693-08:00You could not be further from the truth. Blair wit...You could not be further from the truth. Blair witch was scary and innovative and rightfully placed among the 100 scariest films by the Chicago Film Critics Association. Cloverfield is boring and we don't care for the yuppie a**holes one bit. The computer effects are bad which cannot be forgiven with regards to the size of the film's budget. reconsider!taw_johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11995813980799819550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904006883321855933.post-28979672944790543522009-01-30T06:48:00.000-08:002009-01-30T06:48:00.000-08:00The movie was well-done but I disagree with "carin...The movie was well-done but I disagree with "caring for its characters"; after half an hour of watching these pseudo-yuppie partyboys and girls navel-gaze, I couldn't wait for the monster to come along and eat them. True, once the carnage started it was so gripping (and the camerawork so nauseating) that you sort of found yourself in their shoes, but this had less to do with the characters than the situations, I think.Joel Bockohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11238338958380683893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904006883321855933.post-24092953368210557502009-01-29T12:15:00.000-08:002009-01-29T12:15:00.000-08:00I just watched this again on Blu-Ray and it was as...I just watched this again on Blu-Ray and it was as good as I remembered it, if not better. The film was so smartly done. It was definitely a genre piece, but set itself apart -- it didn't try to mimic other films, but rather make its own way.Pretty Little Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10029160199704264240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904006883321855933.post-75830477921109373042009-01-26T17:07:00.000-08:002009-01-26T17:07:00.000-08:00I agree with your review...

I thought this film was particularly clever in it's use of the video tape to narrate a non-linear story line.Alexander Acostahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04915770403999304114noreply@blogger.com
