where it straight up becomes war of the worlds
Elliot set up obviously to sacrifice himself, but not like that. I really liked his character so it sucks that he got killed, but it made that more impactful too.
But the fucking ending.
It just straight up turns into a different movie completely just like that, just so it can be about aliens to still be a cloverfield movie. With a scene ripped right from war of the worlds. Could have been a The Thing tier ambiguous ending in some way if they did it right, instead of that. Oh well.
So yea, overall really liked it except the ending. Not much else to say.
