I've actually never seen Cloverfield. I missed it right when it came out, and by the time I would have been able to watch it, I feel like the cultural moment had passed and all my friends who'd be into watching it already had, and nobody else wanted to see it.

I really love art that effectively uses implication and negative space within the narrative to let imagination tell the story.

Thanks for the review. Now I have a fallback option the next time I'm stuck trying to figure out what to watch.
