Some sleepers, some duds.
Keep in mind while reading these are the opinions of one person. Taste is a very individual thing.
This article is only intended to spare the casual unsuspecting viewer. If you love film, go see all of these titles and make your own call.
#1. CLOVER FIELD.
Sorry I'm going to have to say PASS. While the efforts to bring low-tech film making to the big screen and mix it with Hollywood level special effects are admirable, I cannot suggest the casual viewer spend 90 minutes at this film. It has a handful of moments but by the end of the film you will understand why you're in the theater all by yourself. CLOVER FIELD fails in a few ways.
#1. The acting is some of the worst you will endure.
#2. The opening is too long and rambles.
#3. The intent of the long opening might have been to catch you off guard with the disaster. This brings a "Thank-God " feeling rather than shock.
Good points about Clover Field
- The very subtle 10 seconds at the end where the sharp viewer learns where this beast came from.
- The scene with the silent depiction of the small creatures jumping on soldiers was a bit haunting. (News-spot)
- A few scenes where it all seemed a little too real for a movie were creepily satisfying.
All in all, the casual audience will feel cheated out of $7 before they even see the monster on screen.
Casual viewers who are looking for light hearted yet smart comedy should check out MAD MONEY
Those who prefer DRAMA and heart felt issues, check out The Bucket List
Action Fans can safely go see RAMBO. The blood and violence level tips the scale to a new level for Stallone but if you enjoyed any John Rambo film, you will want to finish it out with this last one. RAMBO Scoffers can sit it out and instead read up on why John Rambo is worthy of your time.

Where did the beast come from???
As you recall in the beginning of the film, our couple went to Coney Island. They recorded themselves, which was taped over by the friend who ran the camera at the party that night.
Ok so when the film comes to a close, the recording runs out exposing the previous recording left that was NOT over recorded which is our couple at Coney Island from earlier that day.
Describing the scene: The frame is carefully set to show the girl’s face at near full frame but she is off center so we can see Coney Island behind her. We can also see the ocean.
While she is talking to the camera, the sharp eye can witness a large object shoot from the sky at an angle. The object plummets into the ocean. There’s no sound to it hitting the water. It’s too far out. No one in the film notices. This implies the beast came from outer space, landed in the ocean, and later turns over an oil tanker, (as described in the film’s news byte). Then the beast comes ashore and starts depositing its offspring onto the ground, most likely intended to provide food for the little ones. (which explains the long trip to a planet with a nice food supply.)
