This movie was great fun. Shlocky, noisy, basically no background story. In medias res - monster attacks New York. And what a monster! Then the movie just ends and everybody looks around and “what the …?”
7 point 9 stars.

I saw the movie a few days ago (and yes, don’t ask how :). I had to fast forward a couple of times just to get to the meatier part. First half was spent on the party, which I thought was pretty long and boring for a buildup. The monster’s design was pretty interesting, though, never seen anything like it. Just can’t imagine how it was able to grab that guy and supposedly trash it and didn’t even make so much as a scratch on the guy’s face when he fell (or was shown to), but I guess I’m spilling too much of the beans….

Oh god the movie is shittier than D-War. It had no plot, the hand-held camera “technique” was nauseous and the ending was just horrific. Good job on the CGI, though.
