Yeah, I thought it was a fun little piece of fluff. I don't know what everyone's problem is. It's a monster movie where the big giant monster attacks New York. Was anyone under the impression that would not result in buildings falling and people dying? To me, that's like going to see Pearl Harbor and getting upset because the Japanese unfairly surprised the Americans.
In any case, I thought the shakycam was an innovative and interesting touch, and the narrative's POV was entertaining. Also, Jessica Lucas (she played Lily) rocks my world! I think she is just ungodly hot! I thought an hour and a half of looking at her was worth most of the ticket price, anyway....
