Five young New Yorkers throw their friend a going-away party the night that a monster the size of a skyscraper descends upon the city. Told from the point of view of their video camera, the film is a document of their attempt to survive the most surreal, horrifying event of their lives.

Very good film, creative and original! I loved how they filmed it!

Utterly enthralled! I had been anxiously awaiting this release and Cloverfield delivers!

Ok per gli effetti speciali, la storia sta in piedi finchè non si vede "il protagonista" del film, a quel punto crolla tutto, un pò come i palazzi. La telecamera a mano ha fatto storia con il Blair Witch Project, ma ora ha anche fatto il suo tempo.
