WEEKEND WARNING: 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE



Like the original "10 Cloverfield Lane" arrives on a wave of Buzz. Although not as strong as the original the concept at hand looks way more intriguing. Now I'm not sure how much this actually has to do with the original film but the trailers are exhilarating and hold promise for what will be one of the years most innovative and satisfying genre films.





THE DEAL: Centering on a young woman played by the amazing Mary Elizabeth Winstead (Live Free or Die Hard, Faults) who gets into a severe car accident and awakens chained up in an underground bunker. She is told by her Captor played by a welcomely creepy John Goodman that's something terrible and mysterious has happened to the outside world and he is her savior. But as time passes she begins to question the situation finding holes in his story. Eventually learning the horrifying truth of which I have no idea what it is.




THE BUZZ: Buzz is very strong the film is sitting at 100% positive on rottentomatoes.com. which leads me to believe that this will be one hell of a movie. Now critics are saying that the actual relation to Cloverfield is on the light side butt it's  still one hell of a tense thriller leading to a shocking third Act.




POSITIVE: 

Mara Reinstein of Us Weekly says "For the Love of Google don't scour the web for third act spoilers. Just know that an Old Fashioned scary movie can still make you squirm laugh and gasp for air."

Justin Chang of Variety says "A sensationally effective semi sequel that bears virtually no narrative are stylistic resemblance to its predecessor." 

Mike Ryan of Uproxx says "It's all very exhilarating and at times it's one of the scariest movies I've seen in a long time."

David Sztypuljak of Hey You Guys says "A roller coaster ride which will have you clinging to the edge of your seat from start to finish!"

Chris Nashawaty of Entertainment Weekly says "It's lean and taut and tense and moves with Swiss-clock precision."

Eric Davis of Movies.com says "A psychological cinematic chess game stuffed with Thrills chills and a neat little premise that keeps you guessing till the very last shot!"

Alan Scherstuhl of Village Voice says "As a game like simulationist PG-13 horror chamber piece, 10 Cloverfield Lane is a success: well shot and staged arresting acted, edited with a crisp unpredictability."

Tim Grierson of Screen International says "Forget monsters in 10 Cloverfield Lane it's the paranoia and claustrophobia that will kill you." 

Greg Wakeman of Cinemablend.com says "Concise, suspenseful, yet still playful and smartly orchestrated."

Matt Prigge of Metro says "A crackerjack exercise not just in genre but genres, with exacting direction, three great Performances and a genuine respect for audience patience, intelligence and willingness to go with a story that drags you hither and thither."

Jamie Graham of Total Film says "Cloverfield was all about making viewers gasp and pant. 10 Cloverfield Lane demands you hold your breath as unnerving as it is surprising."




CONCLUSION: So it looks like people are really taken aback by what is sure to be one of the most entertaining genre films of the year 10 Cloverfield Lane may end up finally bringing out the horror film that we've been wanting for since The Conjuring. If you haven't seen the electrifying trailer which is one of the best I've ever seen I highly recommend you click on the link below and see it for yourself! I am 95 percent sure this will be an amazing movie!
