The Cloverfield Paradox

The Cloverfield Paradox (2018 February 4)


Netflix Distributed Movie
Availability: Global

Plot:
Ten years ago some thing arrived, now we find out why. Planet Earth is on the brink of war as scientists test a device to solve the energy crisis and end up facing a dark alternate reality.

Review:
Rating: [Watch it] / It depends / Skip it

  • This jumps into the story quickly and doesn't relent. If you've seen Cloverfield, you know the result of this mission, but that isn't the focus. This incorporates a few sci-fi tropes, but doesn't rely on them. It pulls you into the mystery of what happened, and once you figure it out, you follow the characters as they try to fix it. While I wish this did more to develop the characters, that's not the focus. This is basically a space action movie. More than a few images are going to stick with you after this concludes. Many of Netflix's movies feel like studio rejects, but this one doesn't. It's not going to redefine the genre, but it's a solid dose of sci-fi.
