Review of The Cloverfield Paradox (2018) by Hunnybee2 — 05 Feb 2018

This movie, in the end, leaves me with mixed feelings. While the set production was great, the actors were talented, and the CGI was top notch, the script was where things got tripped up.

Much of the story was bogged down in cliches and rushed timing. Characters were not given time to become interesting, and this crew was not given proper time to rationally react to what is happening around them. What results is a plot that feels like it has a lot of missing pieces, and characters that become caricatures.

This is by no means a terrible movie, it just represents a lot of missed potential. Hopefully a fourth film can get this universe back on track, because I love the Cloverfield universe, and definitely want to keep exploring.
