10 Cloverfield Lane's reviews
Media reviews
Hitfix
Economically told from the start, the film moves beautifully.
Chicago Sun-Times
This is a terrific movie that will keep audiences gripping their seats from start to finish, and a great deal of that is due to the magnificent acting jobs by Goodman, Winstead and co-star John Gallagher Jr.
Variety
The tension is rooted in psychology rather than gimmickry, and evinces a command of craft that feels old-fashioned in the most refreshing possible sense.
El País
Dan Trachtenberg's debut leaves you shocked from the beginning. Each frame is beauty and efficiency, anguish and effervescence.
New York Post
A real nail-biter of a monster movie. The question is: Who?s the monster?
Cinemanía
Magnetic and beating story, its narrative mechanism works perfectly from the start to the end, and it has some memorable scenes.
Fotogramas
Thanks to John Goodman's wise performance, who can be villain and conciliatory in a single frame, and thanks to the astute decision of out of the screen an outside that can be apocalyptic or not at all, the movie sets a tense pulse, electrifying, with the simple elements that it has in its range.
El Mundo
The result is a goldsmithing piece as smart as manipulating; as surprising as cheating. This time, the hell is upstairs... and also downstairs.
