Reply #8: Saw it. It's krrrrep [View All]

My son treated me to a matinee showing.

The joke is true. It IS the Blair Godzilla Project. Oh, it doesn't have Blair's cheapjack production, there are actually a couple of good BOO moments, a couple of good WHOA moments. But it's as overhyped and forgettable as Blair. And it's probably the world's first made-for-YouTube movie, the experience really isn't much greater on a louder, larger screen. If they'd premiered it on the web, it'd be considered some sort of milestone. In the cinema, it's just clangorous cheese.

Of course, your mileage will vary (the critical reviews are surprisingly kind). However...

My son lives for this sort of stuff. The last movie he saw was the awful AVPII and he loved it. Cloverfield made him peevish.

The matinee house was near full. When the last scene played out, the collective groan sounded almost choreographed and had everyone giggling.
