 So now we have the third chapter in the Cloverfield franchise called the Cloverfield Paradox which is a Netflix original but what did I think about it? My name is Brandon Keith-Avery and this is just my opinion. Hey what's going on everyone thank you so much for tuning in to my opinion slash review for the Cloverfield Paradox a Netflix original I do appreciate it but before we get into the review help your boy out by clicking that subscribe button also click the bell so you can be notified when I make uploads and give me that thumbs up let's see if we can get this video to 100 likes so you know the Superbowl was yesterday and then out of nowhere they dropped the trailer and was like hey Cloverfield is on Netflix top right now it's on Netflix tonight you can watch it nobody knew it was gonna be dropping like that and I was like oh man I don't know either I was real tired I didn't want to watch it last night you know but I watched it early this morning like really really really early and now I just want to talk about it now the first Cloverfield came out January of 2008 I remember that I remember I took a little date to go to that movie and we both we both enjoyed the movie and we had a good date we talked about the movie afterwards so I really did enjoy it I liked all the mystery that it had to go like you know with that movie all the undertones and all the it still didn't reveal everything but you know it revealed a lot towards the end and then of course 2016 we had 10 Cloverfield Lane really did enjoy that film as well didn't enjoy it as much as the first one because you know it was it was really constricted to the basement and underground you know it wasn't people running around and you know destruction everyone in chaos but it was still a great movie but I remember it kind of being first like oh it's not really relating that much to the first Cloverfield movie as much as I want but then we found out that we're getting more and more Cloverfield lanes we just got this third one and we're getting on a fourth one later on as well and so when I when I saw the Superbowl TV spot for this and I was like okay man this is gonna directly tie in with 2008 you know I'm on board that's what's up so and I'll talk about that in a second first thing I got to talk about is the cast of this movie this is a great cast we got Google and Bothera we got David or yellow whoa we got Daniel bro we got James the Yee you know I'm saying she was in West Shower she was in Croucher Tiger hitting dragon you know David or yellow whoa he played Martin Luther King and Selma he's been in a number of things Daniel bro he was a Zemo in Captain America Civil War he was also in the movie with Chris Hemsworth based on a true story I believe it was called Rush and and what was that Google and Bothera man she's so beautiful I should have wrote that I thought I had all this memorized but you know that's okay she had was it Belle I can't remember but she's freaking fantastic but the cast is freaking great I was on board with the cast I didn't even pay attention to it before the movie started but you know as it was starting and I was seeing all the names pop up and all the credits opening credits I was like oh man this is a great cast there's other people too but I just didn't name them here and you know I this is gonna be a spoiler review spoiler field it's very difficult to talk about this movie without getting to spoilers so if you haven't seen it that's okay it's on Netflix right now you know go watch it if you don't have a subscription go subscribe or whatever you know it's great but what it is about is the energy on earth is depleting they only have five years left and if we don't if the scientists in this movie don't come up with some solution within five years there's not going to be an energy left so they go up into space they have this particle accelerator and they're firing it off just trying to get this thing to work and they're up there for two there was only supposed to be up there for six months but they end up being up there for six not six years but for two years a little over two years and you know time is running out and so what what I did not like early on in this film is the exposition by the author at the very beginning you know like it was just two on the nose like I'm like dude you could have gave they could have gave him some better dialogue him talking about monsters and demons and demons are gonna come now I just don't I don't see you know the way they were trying to portray him is just some bestling author a scientist himself I got it you know a genius or just somebody that knew what he was talking about a specialist I don't see someone like that talking that way I think that they would you know just you know be able to articulate themselves better with a larger vocabulary and I just wasn't buying it from that point of view but then again going back I did like to cast so they fire off this particle accelerator it goes crazy you know you have explosions you have glass breaking gravity shooting them up and down and they end up going to another dimension and they don't know that yet and what I was really feeling early on in the beginning is because I was like okay wow what they're doing is with them you know firing off this particle accelerator you know they're colliding different universities and dimensions and things like that and pulling monsters and and beings and things like that from other dimensions that's where the monster comes from so I was liking that but there were just so many things in the movie that was just kind of unnecessary to me that made it seem a bit corny and just completely unnecessary I mean this could this film is not immature but it could have been more it's not childish but it could have been more mature you know like there were just some things that just was unnecessary to me like one character how all the worms ended up being inside of his body and then you know the little device the orb that kind of was the main engine to the whole space station how that ended up inside him or the one guy when he had his arm in the window not the window but the wall and the wall was moving around and cut off it's almost like you know I mean you know I don't mind those things being in the movie but at some point I do want some type of better explanation that they could have just they were saying that hey you know worlds are colliding upon each other dimensions and things like that but that was just kind of like a cheap trick just to make this movie similar oh my god I can't believe what they're doing and I mean you can do that but you just I just like need a better explanation as far as Google and Botheraw's concerned I like her arc in the story but early on I was very pissed off with her I thought she was a stupid character because she was just like you know we got to open up the wall when the lady ended up being in the wall from the other dimension I'm like you don't know what's freaking in there or whatever I like you either you then they're thinking that they blew up the earth and somebody screaming in the wall like you know like I mean she is she just had no reserve or whatever you like go grab a wrench or something you know brace up or whatever you know be ready to attack whatever is screaming on the other side of the wall that shouldn't be there you know she just wasn't using her logic and I just really wasn't feeling that right there I mean she was you know you I don't know I mean she didn't know that she was in it's this not a horror movie you know this is a science fiction I guess suspense thriller she didn't know that she was in the movie so it's kind of like you know it's a different perspective for me but I'm putting myself in her shoes and I'm just like I would not be doing that there but other things in the movie you know I talked about the worms and then the vice being in this in the guy's stomach and then the the the guy's arm getting cut off I did not care about any of the characters itself for Google and Bothered when everybody was dying off it I didn't really feel anything I was all that kind of sucks but you know that there was nothing that they did to make me connect to them on the reason I connected to Google and Bothered because she had a husband down on earth and then we also found out that she had some children that she killed you know by accident or whatever so you know that really did humanize her character and wasn't able to make me attach myself but everybody else was just kind of like you know either panicking or nervous or you had a couple of other characters that was kind of selfish and wanting to do their own thing I do like the fact that there were the the scientists and the specialists and all that good stuff the experts they were from different parts of the world you know we had America we had Great Britain we had China we had Russia we had Germany you know we had all that good stuff that makes sense you know I get that I like that I like that they had Zhang Ji actually speaking Chinese actually speaking Mandarin you know I did like that that was dope so you know that's great there but I wish they would have done more with the characters I mean I wouldn't mind that this movie was two hours two hours 15 minutes but it was only an hour and 45 minutes you know so I just really didn't care about the characters and you know I just like what I wanted a big payoff and I really didn't feel like I got a big payoff at the end of this movie I feel like it confused me even more and just opened so many doors for them to write whatever they want in the future because I was just thinking to myself like this the technology they use in this film it can't be present day I don't understand that this is in the future but at the same time early in the film they talked about you know dimensions and things like that going from the you know time and space continuum going from the present past and the future so I don't know what timeline they're in exactly I mean when they sent the animal there and they crashed back on earth at the very end you know was that like the present day or was that the future but at the same time on my research that monster at the very beginning of the film at the very end of the film was much you know that's supposed to be the same monster from the very beginning that's what one of these articles I read said but that monster was really small this one was through the clouds so that they send a monster to the past and they came back in the present you know it's just too many questions that are unanswered for me and I just kind of really feel let down you know I don't know it was entertaining I think everybody should go see it but at the same time this was not remotely close as good as the other Cloverfield movies the first one was the best the second one you know in order the first was the best second one second best third one is the is the worst to me it's not a horrible film but it's not anything that I can just say hey man you seen it you know I wouldn't tell you to go to the movies to see it like cuz this is an Netflix original you know so I guess that's why it's like kind of I don't even want to call it a B movie but I just wanted more and you know I just have to be honest with that assessment if I have to give Cloverfield the Cloverfield paradox a rating of a 1 out of 10 I'm gonna give it a 5.5 out of 10 yes a 5.5 out of 10 but guys that's just my opinion have
