More quickie DVD reviews

"Cloverfield": "Godzilla" meets "The Blair Witch Project." Engaging and fun. Special effects were great considering the $25 million budget. Looking forward to the sequel.

"There Will Be Blood": Exceptional. One of last year's best movies. Daniel Day-Lewis' performance was unbelievably good. No one else had a chance at this year's Oscars. Beautiful cinematography, memorable score. This movie is very relevant today, because it's a biting commentary on greed, and what it can do to people. Adam (my brother) had a very good point that the story is similar to that of "Citizen Kane."

I truly do think it got ripped off for best picture. NCFOM was NOT THAT GOOD!
