Review of The Cloverfield Paradox (2018) by Tryasummersault — 04 Feb 2018

Honestly I can now see why this was released only on netflix. Overall it's a very slow paced film that borders on mediocrity up until the final minutes. The cast is pretty dull and none of characters were interesting in the slightest.

As far as it connecting to the Cloververse, it waits till the last 10 min just like 10 Cloverfield Ln, the difference is that film was interesting and had a fantastic cast/story. This has some very scattered far reaching plot points within its story, and really doesn't pull any punches other than a couple little attempts at space horror which are few and far between.

If you wanted to see creatures/aliens consistently, be prepared to be let down. Overall this was a disappointment where the other 2 films are excellent and stand on their own. the hype earlier tonight was completely deflated for me.

2.8/5 at best and it really reminds you of a syfy original generic film full of cliches. Could and should have been way more. Im actually quite furious with this film.
