really good i thought

Servindo-se de espantosos dotes de prestidigitador do audiovisual, o estreante-revelação Reeves fez mágica à base de %u201Cmódicos%u201D US$25 milhões para preencher a tela larga com catástrofes estarrecedoras. Não bastasse a excelência técnica, com destaque para a edição e a fotografia oriundas da linguagem documental, que conferem ares de originalidade à trama inegavelmente batida, alguns personagens cativam, assim como a proverbial subtrama romântica.

The most original take on the monster movie genre I could ever imagine. Some cheesy dialogue from the annoying first-person character of Hud is rather distracting, but the film itself is brilliant. What makes it stand out from anything I've ever seen is that the danger feels very real. More than any other disaster film I've ever seen, it actually feels like everything could go wrong in an instant. A brilliantly executed style makes the mood of this film simply awe-inspiring.

Entertaining monster movie. Nothing more, nothing less. I didn't really care for the "omg life-like" shaky cam bullshit. Save it for the Lame's Film Festival or something, damn hippies.

After seeing this, I thought: "Wow, this is the worst movie I've ever seen." But then I talked to a friend about it, and he told me that he loved it, because simply put: it's a monster movie. Nothing more; nothing less. In that respect, it does a good job of being a simple monster movie.

could have been better if they had skipped the stupid camera idea.

Meh. Gave me a headache.

why'd lizzy caplan have to 'esplode

"Big pile of OK"

One of the most successful attempts at hand-held camera film (as much as possible) of the last years. The effects are very good, elements such as the military, the buildings and the riot chaos are well played; the whole movie feels like a roller-coaster. One of the problems is the abrupt way it ends, without giving any extra clue about the monster nor what happened after the end.

Original filmstyle, great special effects, but the acting was shit. Like the girls where enjoying being in danger.

One word: "Huh?"
