There's not much to this one. The end is foreshadowed in the beginning, and you should bring a fresh set of eyes with you to the movie because the jiggling first person camera work can be a little jarring and irritating after a while.
Much more could have been done with this movie, including some buildup and background for the monster, but I suppose that the first person viewpoint of the film mostly precludes filling in the information gaps. Lots of silly situations and dialogue too, which presumably is supposed to resemble the actions of real people under stress. Not a very satisfying movie. A time killer at best. |
