Cloverfield Number 1 At The Box Office


Despite mixed reviews, the intensely viral advertised movie Cloverfield came in at number 1 this week. The monster movie brought in 41 million, which isn't to bad for a movie with a running time of only 84 minutes. I'm still looking forward to checking this movie out, and if anyone has seen it, let me know what you thought without spoiling it. Take a look at the rest of the pack below:

Did anyone see this yet. The last shaky camera movie I saw was Blair Witch Project and I want that 2 hours of my life back. Its a good thing for the people that told me to watch that tripe, that I waited for it to come on video. Otherwise I'd have had to stomp a mud hole in someone's ass and walk it dry.
