I was supposed to go see it then I got a bad head cold. From what I heard all the camera shake was causing people to leave and throw up and stuff. Did anyone leave while you were there?

It's The Blair Witch Project + Godzilla. It's good too.
I find it interesting. Remember watching 9/11 footage on the news? People sent in their footage and that's how we saw 9/11. If a Godzilla were to appear in NYC this is how we would see it. We would see something like this on TV.
That's what the movie made me think.
Anyways yeah, I recommend it. The only complaint I have about it is that the characters you won't like. You won't give two shits about them, and the first 20 minutes of the movie suck.

I concur
Hud was annoying

noone left, and the camera doesnt shake THAT much. if someone threw up from that, they deserve to be shot

Mush,

This is funny. From an 80 minute movie, you are only recommending 60 minutes worth (since the first 20 minutes suck as you say).

The part I think is funny is that you enjoyed 3/4 of the movie and it is enough to rave about. I just concluded to a similar comparison with Halo 3.

I finished the single-player and I am ready to report that the first 3/4 of the game truly rocked and I loved every improvement, etc. However, the last 1/4 of the game was complete garbage!!!! From the time I entered the "gravemind cave" until the end credits, the game just tanked. I can go in more detail in the game section, but for now, let me say that the entire cave sequence was garbage, after that, the AI driver took me off the cliff over 12 times before the dual scarab battle, and the BIGGEST BUMMER of all was that they COMPLETELY inserted Halo 1's ending with driving the warthog through a level for like 13 minutes straight and we had to floor it and hit a ramp to end the game. This was the most cheesy next gen ending EVER!!!

Wow, I just meant to say that I could also recommend something for 3/4 of great value as you do this movie. I just thought it was funny how you only liked 60 minutes of the movie.

Well, in the first 20 minutes nothing happens, then there's an explosion and the movie starts. It is really bad for the beginning but once it picks up the film is very compelling. And I wouldn't say I'm raving about this movie, I recommend seeing it, but I'm not raving about it. I'll rave about Primer.
