Trivia:

J.J. Abrams has used the number 47 extensively on past projects. In "Alias" (2001) it played great importance as a page on Rambaldi's manuscript, and as a recurring pointer to important motifs. It should come as no surprise that "Cloverfield" is the designation to the case of the images found on Area US-447. Also, in the scenes where they're taking the stairs up to the top of the skyscrapers to save Beth, one of the floor numbers filmed is the 47th.

Goofs:

Continuity: At the party, when Lilly begins to tell her testimony, the heart on her necklace is upside down hanging on the chain. Later in the testimony, the heart on the necklace hangs tilted off one of the bows.

Quotes:

[first lines]
Rob Hawkins:It's 6:42 AM. Beth's dad's place. He's out of town. And it's already a good day.

wow

everything about this movie is horrible. the acting, the plot, even the camera work and the graphics are so bad. stay away from this piece of garbage, ... anyone who thinks this is even an okay movie needs to get their heads checked.

also, i would like to add... I really don't understand why it is people actually like sitting in a theater and staring at a shaky screen for even half an hour, let alone a full movie. all it does is give you a head ache.

no joke... in the top five for worst movies ever made

i don't know what else to say other than stay away from this movie if you enjoy films and do not want to waste over an hour of your life like i did. it really is that bad.
