    The review on Slate includes a line some long-time SJers will enjoy.

    "Sleeping in Rob's bed is the leggy, sloe-eyed Beth (Odette Yustman), with whom he's just spent an apparently fulfilling night."

    I have no idea if Beth is a sabra, or even what the hell that or sloe-eyed mean, but it sounds hot.

    Interested in the plot, but not willing to pay to see it?

    That's got to be a joke.
    This movie is bad. I mean 'The Postman' bad, 'The Road to Wellville' bad, 'Van Helsing' bad.

    It's getting 78 percent positive reviews from critics, so I doubt it's that bad.

    Yeah, it wasn't The fucking Piano or My Left Foot, I guess. Whatever.

    '... "Cloverfield" may be a product that can be most comfortably viewed on the smallest screen. If people are going to watch movies on an iPhone, the reasoning may go, give them movies that look as if they were shot on an iPhone. Projected on a building-size screen, "Cloverfield" is a relentless, I-thought-my-eyeballs-were-bleeding exercise in visual disorientation.
    'So what does "Cloverfield" offer?
    'Bad taste? Dialogue that consists largely of OH MY GOD!!? The anti-cinematic aesthetic that is coming to govern our visual lives? All of the above, plus another slimy monster, engaged in an extreme makeover of Manhattan.'

    It can't possibly be Van Helsing bad. For the budget and talent involved, that is as bad as any film can ever be.
