i wouldnt put it in a league with The Thing (either version) or Alien (the original, not Aliens)
but Cloverfield is a damn good giant monster movie, which is all it is.
The creature is great, the little creatures are well done, and although i generally dont like cgi the effects were sparse enough to be sufficiently realistic.
all of these "docu-horror" films will always owe a huge debt to Blair Witch Project, but other than that i thought Cloverfield was pretty original.
