The Cloverfield Paradox Audience Reviews

More Review
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
paulharris-14451 I enjoyed this film. The casting and acting was pretty good, though the whole earth story arc around Michael was disconnected and felt like it was tacked on to try and link some other plot items together (though I thought his acting was good). The whole Cloverfield thing passed me by, and watching this stand alone I thought the last few seconds of the movie were just utterly silly, but I understand now why it was "shoehorned" in. Jensen's character seemed really "thin", and her motivations seemed pretty obvious right from her introduction into the story line. Her "twist" wasn't really very much of a twist at all. However, none of this should take away that it was a fun, stand-alone sci-fi watch. On a final note, it seems a bit of a shame that there are a great many reviews for this film on IMDB that suggest that anyone who doesn't like this film is stupid or a troll. Movies are art, art is subjective. Just because someone has a different view from you doesn't make them dumb. If everyone thought the same, what would be the point of ratings, the point of reviews?
djchabot-140-37567 I watched all three of the Cloverfield movies in less than a week, and maybe that was key to my enjoyment. The first I saw on Comcast, the second on Amazon, and the third on Netflix. All three can stand alone and also add to the overall story. I loved all of them, and especially this one, as it was a prequel of sorts to the other two! The ending of this movie just blew me away. It shocked me, like only a rare great ending can. I can hardly wait for the next Cloverfield movie.
pzautner The last half hour of the movie I just wanted the main character Hamilton to effing die. Her alltime stupidity wasn't bearable anymore, as well as that constant crying just jumped my nerves. Biggest waste of time.
The Movie Diorama Possibly employing the best marketing technique ever, announcing and releasing the film on the very same day to everyone's surprise, my excitement naturally exceeded my expectation. But then I read it: "no cinematic release". Immediately, I quivered in fear. Did the producers wander if this sci-fi thriller was not good enough for a theatrical release? They must've done, because guess what? It's. An. Absolute. Disaster. A group of astronauts attempt to solve Earth's energy crisis by using a particle accelerator on their space station, only to find themselves teleported to an alternate parallel dimension. My dissatisfaction for this tangled paradoxical mess knows no bounds. No suspense. No thrills. No engaging characters. Nothing. Aside from the pleasing visual effects, Mbatha-Raw's performance and the presence of Zhang Ziyi, who still remains underappreciated to this very day, the struggle to find enjoyment in this was real. Writer Uziel seemingly takes the sci-fi genre and decides to test the boundaries of illogicality. Never mix complication with fallaciousness. This results in the vast majority of the screenplay consisting of explanations in an attempt to form some sense of scientific reasoning, leaving no space for character development. In actual fact, these explanations are powered by various plot conveniences that still make no sense. The characters can shout out terms like "quantum entanglement" to explain the merging of dimensions, but the lack of conviction results in stupidity. The boring plot, pointless sub-plot and wooden characters are so thinly written that the air in space is thicker (hint: there is no air in space). O'Dowd's comedic relief was not wanted. Ortiz deserved more screentime. Ziyi decimated the competition. JJ Abrams should be embarrassed with this. I want 102 minutes back. Lazy, just stupendously lazy. This simply exists as a tenuous link to the 'Cloverfield' franchise. Except, the mystery has now been tainted. A colossal dimensional disappointment.
