John Goodman was terrifyingly perfect in 10 Cloverfield Lane... [View all]

He deserves an Oscar nomination.

The actor played a very human monster in one of the year’s best supporting performances.

From Vox, by Todd VanDerWerff


If you haven't seen 10 Cloverfield Lane - I didn't because reviewers kept saying it was nothing like the original 'found-footage' Godzilla-like monster movie Cloverfield - I was shocked at how good a movie this is after showing up on premium cable, and how there are still wonderful surprises at the end!


John Goodman as 'Godzilla.'
