Review of 10 Cloverfield Lane (2016) by Lamontraymond — 11 Mar 2016
Be prepared for a very tense, jarring ride. There really is not much in the way of special effects in this film. Maybe 80% is the build-up with the survivalist stuff, but there are many subterranean thrills a la Mission Impossible, Hard Candy, and Night of the Living Dead (though not in the way you might think).
The acting is excellent all-around. My only concern is that it gets a little campy toward the end when she escapes and is fighting the "baddies" (won't say what it is). I get the feeling she's doing an Ash impersonation from Evil Dead at times.
Worth seeing, but certainly not among the genre's best.
