If Cloverfield made you sick...

I strongly suggest you don't watch Quarantine. Makes Cloverfield look like it was shot with a very steady steadycam.

Camera work didn't annoy me, but the desire to punch the lead character who entered hysterics at the halfway point...And stayed there...... Was overwhelming.

    Thanks for the heads up, I had to walk out of Cloverfield...I was quite annoyed that they didn't put a warning on the film.

    Oh, I loved Cloverfield.

    Quarantine does take the POV thing to a new extreme though, including quite a few out of focus sequences, not sure it really 'works'.

    It was the screaming..... Constant for about 20 minutes, if i hadn't realised it was almost over I think I'd have switched off.

    Cloverfield was the 2nd biggest load of old bollox of a film I've ever watched, Creep is the first.

    Thanks for the heads up, I'll be avoiding Quarantine like the plague <geddit>.

    Cloverfield made me feel very queasy. Mind you, a few years ago I got travel sick at work when one of my colleagues chose 'Maze' as his screensaver.

    I thought Cloverfield was fab, Creep was rubbish. Apart from having Jeremy Sheffield in it <drool>
