Forget 'I Am Legend.' If that big
lizard has its way, we're all legends
By Roger Ebert
(3 stars)
Godzilla meets the Queasy-Cam in "Cloverfield," a movie that crosses the Monster-Attacks-Manhattan formula with "Blair Witch." No, Godzilla doesn't appear in person, but the movie's monster looks like a close relative on the evolutionary tree, especially in one closeup. The closeup ends with what appears to be a POV shot of the guy with the video camera being eaten, but later he's still around. Too bad. If he had been eaten, but left the camera's light on, I might have been reminded of the excellent video of my colonoscopy.
