God, the last 10 minutes of this movie...
I wish they would've cut those out. The movie is so good up until then...
shareHeck,no---those last 15 min or 20 min kicked a**, and turned out to be a nice dark twist to the whole plot.

Agreed, it was like a totally different movie; and not a good one.
shareDisagree! I liked the movie completely as it is. I'm actually pleasantly surprised by it. Who knew?

So you like the main character turning into a Mary Sue and destroying advanced space ships with alcohol? Alcohol doesn't explode btw. It was a hollywood ending that didn't fit the rest of the movie.
shareYou can't have a good blockbuster movie without something blowing up at the end. /sarcasm
shareThe last ten movies sold me completely that I had not wasted the ninety minutes basically watching a stage play. It also connected this movie to the previous movie with Cloverfield in it's title. This is JJ Abrams in his element. I enjoyed Cloverfield Lane so much I almost forgive him for what he did to the Star Trek and Star wars franchises.

Why would a stage play not have been an entertaining movie? Also cloverfield wasn't from space was he? Pretty sure he came from the sea in the first one.
shareNo, Cloverfield was from space. In the early parts of the video, you can see something fall into the ocean (when they're on the Ferris Wheel).
shareThis is a common misconception. What falls in the ocean is actually a satellite, one of a private company's. This is confirmed by the company's website, part of the ARG/viral marketing for the series. The creature in the first one has been deep in the ocean for "thousands of years", where it came from before then is unknown. Abrams confirmed these things previously:

The ARG/viral was actually quite extensive for these films, this is a really good video on youtube explaining it all:

Your comment I can identify with as well.
Now "Cloverfield" was all about nothing. What Lin did to the last one, with the NWO "tolerance" BS, not in keeping with the original story was politics.
Can you fly this plane?
Surely u cant be serious
I am serious,and dont call me Shirley
it's like someone saw the original cut and said to themself: "what can i do to completely undermine the tension and pacing this movie has going?" and then they did it.
i still love the movie but that's a testament to the original creative force.
imo
Agreed. I was laughing.
shareNot sure what else you were expecting from a Cloverfield Anthology film? Did you expect it just to end like any other generic suspense thriller where okay she makes it out think she's safe gets in the car and starts driving, but then buddy make it out and slams himself against the glass for another jump-scare? Then there's one final confrontation between the two and she struggles to run/scream/get help/get away...then eventually somehow she finally kills him (or something crushes him, impales him, etc.) and then she is seen in a blanket being carted away by police and ambulance?
Would that^ generic, "follow-the-format" kind of thing have pleased you? LOL. Seriously you watched a Cloverfield movie and were expecting nonsense like that? Really??
No it should have ended with the alien invasion turning out to be false, and the comic relief (and the release of tension) by knowing the main character spent all that time making a gas mask for nothing.
Instead all audiences want is CGI of alien fight scenes with crap blowing up for 20 minutes.
Agree completely. I loved the movie up until she sees the actual aliens. Personally once she got on top of that truck, and saw the alien spaceship it should have ended right there.
