This country loves to be spoon fucking fed everything and leave nothing to the imagination. Anything decent that comes out that isn't fed to the viewers in everywhich way will always gets bad ratings...which is pretty much a given.
You guys and your pretty little plots and perfect endings.....you guys missed the whole point of the film.
This movie was shot as it was to document the current happenings, NOTHING MORE...
that's all it was meant to be.

Usually the dumbest people are the ones who criticize a movie by simply saying, "the ending sucked., or "it had no plot." Some of the best movies ever "had no plot", or "just ended."
We don't need to know the origins of the monster, because you're right, it's about that moment and what happened -- which makes it cooler not having a back story on the monster.
Full Metal jacket = no apparent A to B plot, no wrap up ending, and no explanation of the Vietnam war. Most people think it's pretty good.
Not trying to put Cloverfield in the same league as FMJ.
