Cloverfield

A group of young friends are at a going-away party in New York when a towering monster suddenly attacks the city. Seen through a handheld video camera, the story follows their desperate effort to navigate the chaos and reach someone trapped in danger.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like monster-disaster stories told from a close, on-the-ground perspective; Not for you if shaky footage, frantic pacing, or limited explanations tend to frustrate you.
