Fuck me. That has to easily be the worst one out of the three.

At least we know where the monsters originated from. I give it a 8/10. It was a fun watch. But it was obvious that the people who wrote the story had no idea what they were writing in regards to particle physics. Trying to analyze and decipher everything they were trying to do will give you a migraine. So let's just take this prequel origins story and wait for the fourth.

*No spoilers*
- The humour was hit and miss (mostly miss, especially by Chris O’Dowd’s character).
- The acting wasn't great, which is dissapointing with the amount of talent that was in that cast.
- What were with those overly long shots of a persons face right before a cut to the next scene? I swear that same cut happened at least 10 times.
- The storyline was predictable as well as a mess. Random shit just starts happening because it can, and there isn’t really much explanation to it, while saying that, there’s still a lot of ‘on the nose dialogue’. Also, what were with the futuristic ass tools they were using on the ship? The first and second one made it seem like they were taking place in today’s age. This one didn’t.
- It wasn’t even fun. This honestly felt like a B movie, except there wasn’t even much entertainment. Which is the best ingredient of a B movie. It felt like a chore to watch.
- The first 15 minutes or so were actually good and set up the movie for potential. After the big event happens though, that’s when everything starts to quickly go downhill.
- The last 10 seconds are pretty cool, and it’s as if they just tossed that in there so they could clarify it as a Cloverfield movie. I know 10 Cloverfield Lane did the same kind of thing, but at least that movie wasn’t shit throughout.
1. Cloverfield (Great - 8/10) 2. 10 Cloverfield Lane (Really Good - 7.5/10) 3. The Cloverfield Paradox (Ass - 3/10)

I didn’t hate it but it was pretty weak and often times way too confusing to follow. I think it still bears explaining just HOW THE HELL the monsters showed up through that dimension jump. Not sure if this Overlord film will answer more questions or just raise a ton of new ones.

"HOLY SHIT! THIS WOMAN JUST MATERIALIZED INSIDE THE WALL! HOLY SHIT! SHE HAS WIRES STICKING OUT OF HER! HOLY SHIT WE HAVE TO SAVE HER! QUICK, LET'S CUT HER OUT! OH MY GOD, THIS IS CRAZY!"

Wow, this was godawful. I'll be surprised if this isn't the worst thing I see this year. Can you imagine a studio greenlighting that script? Felt very off from the first scene and on.
If you're gonna rip off Alien do it in an amusing way like Life from last year.

What a ghastly piece of crap that was. Everything felt so pedestrian especially the writing. I'm not even a fan of the series and I feel bad for it considering how big of a turd this is.

Yikes, that bad? Well, explains why paramount dumped it. They didn't want to waste money on p and a. I read the budget was 45 mil without it. Then again it would have made some money opening weekend but wom would have killed it.

Granted, I don’t watch a ton of movies since I only watch movies that I think I’ll like.

oh God that was so bad. It was so bad it actually destroys the franchise Everything happens because we fucked up the dimensions! Monsters! Demons! Beasts from the sea!
The only good thing about this movie is that people are using that gif again:
