Why have a zero on the poll anyway? That's an odd sort of scale, all things considered. *shrug*

I used to put just 1-10, until someone requested for a 0. Must have been a really bad movie that started it. ;)
 

I give it a 10. I really thought it was great. Action, Automatic weapons fire, Fighter jets, Love, Blood, Panic, Chaos, BIG nasty monster, Tiny nasty monsters... I could go on and on, I really enjoyed Cloverfield.

My gut says this will be a love it or hate it movie, depending on what people think of the basic concept.
Loved the concept---hated the execution.

The movies loses a few points for its hamfisted use of 'frat boy in love' as the humanizing element.

3.

Frat boy?

I am assuming he meant Hud, the camera operator dude. Out of all the main characters, he is the only one I could think of that would come close to a 'frat boy' (even that is stretching it). He did have a love interest.

But assuming he meant the other main char, Rob, that is way off base. I don't think a VP of a company who is moving to Japan for his job is anywhere near what a 'frat boy' is...
 

Frat boys don't go trying to save a one night stand.

I gave it a 8. Quite good and i would have given higher if not for too much time being used on the humans. The party felt clichéd because parties like that ARE clichéd in real life. Been to one, been to them all.

This movie's love story didn't feel much more forced than the love stories in other movies. It is a shame hollywood has to squeeze that drivel into almost every movie the crank out, but it is par for the course.

*BTW, thanks for all the tips, the motion sickness med and sitting on one side of the threater worked.

But they do often drink and have parties (usually both coinsiding with one another).

Attending a party (a going away party for someone leaving for a new job in Japan) and drinking alcohol (no kegs or forced beer or anything seriously excessive in nature, just normal alcohol) now makes one a Frat Boy?

Bah, it was a bad description.
