Cloverfield [BLU-RAY] (Paramount Home Entertainment, 6.3.2008)
Disguised under deliberately goofy, yet deliciously edible-sounding, aliases such as Cheese and Slusho, Matt Reeves'
Cloverfield was produced and rushed into theaters under an equally appetizing shroud of secrecy. From last year's incredibly elusive Super Bowl ad to the film's viral marketing campaign,
Cloverfield had everybody scratching their heads and drooling in anticipation. Aside from the as-yet untitled title and the
Blair Witch-ian visual style, the film's biggest appeal was the enigmatic creature who was last (un)seen hurling the decapitated head of the Statue of Liberty onto the crowded streets of New York City. All we knew about the mysterious beast was that it was big and angry. Now that the highy-anticipated project has come and gone, one question has fortunately been answered:
Cloverfield was a major success.

Very good spot. It's about time Barack went after McCain hard.

I was hoping the campaigns would be above this petty attacking. It's a shame this type of mud-slinging...... oh wait, this is an Obama ad attacking McCain?
What a brilliantly spot-on, informative and note-perfect piece of journalism!

Poland: I guess if you consider delaying a holiday honoring MLK and ripping off the taxpayer with Charles Keating accomplishments, then sure.

Rove doesn't look evil enough. Pencil moustache. Blah blah blah.
