And i'm not a troll, this movie is just truly awful, the shacky cam, the editing, the effects the horrible sound. Why not give us a nice shining militairy-monster action movie. You can sit through and enjoy. Another concept wasted. I definatly don't need to see annoying characters. Just horrible. BAD,BAD,BAD,BAD,BAD.
shareI call it "Loserfield." It definitely goes under the "lame horror flick with the barfy camera" umbrella that the Blair Witch Project films go under. Maybe we could include "Three Kings" while we're at it. I can't actually watch films like this, not just for the violence and bad story-telling, but because of motion-sickness issues.
There is a reason why, when disaster or monster films are made the traditional way, you see parts of the story from multiple perspectives. One thing viewers don't realize is, often various people involved in the story are not actually seeing everything, and civilians on the ground and caught in the crossfire, are often left as confused and scared as the guy carrying the camera in the film mentioned above. We look at multiple perspectives in films like the '97 "Godzilla," or "Independence Day," so we as the audience know everything that's going on. The film above was severely lacking in that area, in addition to forcing the audience to piece together what was happening, which is not much fun for most people when you're given so little to go on beyond flashes of images from a panicked guy carrying a camera around.
