When I walked into the theater today to see this movie, I had no idea what to expect. I had only seen one teaser trailer for it about three or four weeks ago. It broke the record for selling the most on MLK weekend since the re-release of Star Wars. It is nowhere near as good as Star Wars. The about 15 minutes into the movie it gets good, and about 10 minutes after that, it dies off. You never really care about any of the characters, and what it really succeeds in is reminding you of movies that have done the same thing, but better.
**MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS**
This movie is pretty much Alien, Godzilla, The Blair Witch Project and 28 Days Later combined. It is a cool concept, but it does nothing original. At the point where one of the girls are bitten (Her name isn't important enough to remember). I kept telling myself: "She better not turn into anything". Then what do you know... in Alien **** something bursts from her. Another thing that bothered me was the monster. It wasn't anything in particular... It was like every stereotypical monster that you can think of mashed into one. I'm sure you've heard a lot about the camera too... It looks like the whole movie was shot while the cameraman was trying to juggle the camera.
There are also a lot of inconsistencies in this movie too...
1. The Statue of Liberty's head is aparently only about 15 feet wide...
2. You can still sprint after getting a rebar pierced through your heart.
3. BUY MOUNTAIN DEW, AQUAFINA, and NOKIA PRODUCTS.
