1. I loved it, gonna see it again this thursday night for sure. I was going in with HUGE expectations and it met every single one.

2. The camera was such a non issue. A couple times I found myself tilting my head a bit, but thats what made the experience fun.

3. The camera didn't make me sick, dizzy or feel the need to go outside for a break. People are just different I guess, but I was totally fine, I did however sit in the back two rows of a huge Silvercity theatre.

4. the monster was truly badass, I loved it. I loved how we didn't see much of it thru the first 45-hour of the movie. Usually I don't find myself watching a movie and saying "Holy " out loud in the theatre, but two parts I definitely did:

1. Right before the guys go into the subway, they are being chased, Hud falls down and right as he looks up, the monster is screaming at him and we see the monster's face for the first time.
2. At the end in the helicopter, after the big explosion, the monster comes right out of the fire and attacks the chopper.

5. The ending was perfect. yes, I pretty much knew they were gonna die in Central Park, but didn't know the how or the why and was intrigued by those questions and the way it happens doesn't let me down.

9/10, best monster movie I have ever seen, and done in an original way. Gives you a real experience, well as real as it can be for a monster attacking Manhattan movie.
