Cloverfield DVD Review Paramount Home Entertainment Released: April 22, 2008
Cloverfield was a huge hit at the box office, and for good reason as it brought back some great memories of classic Godzilla type films, with this monster absolutely destroying Manhattan. The DVD release has been highly-anticipated as it is an extremely interesting film in the way in which it was shot, through the eyes of five young New Yorkers. Think the Blair Witch Project mixed with Godzilla.
The film stars Hud (T.J. Miller), his best friend Rob (Michael Stahl-David), as well as Beth (Odette Yustman), and others.
The film features Rob and Hud searching for Rob’s love, Beth. The goal is pretty simple, find Beth and get the heck out of New York as fast as possible before the monster destroys everything. The 30-story monster is absolutely destroying Manhattan island in Cloverfield, making for some truly amazing scenes.
It is a fun film to watch as it will have you on the edge of your seat, putting you into a position where you have a very interesting perspective on everything.
The film is extremely entertaining, making for a great modern monster movie. I can’t recommend it enough, definitely worth watching!
The video transfer on DVD is presented in widescreen and looks phenomenal. You have to take into consideration the way in which the film is supposed to look, since it was filmed in a Blair Witch-type set-up. The way in which the film was shot is brought to life nicely on this DVD release as everything has an extremely realistic and raw tone to it. You will see some solid natural colors, as well as details. It has made the transformation from the theater to DVD very nicely to say the least.
