Cloverfield
Cloverfield
Five young New Yorkers throw their friend a going-away party the night that a monster the size of a skyscraper descends upon the city. Told from the point of view of their video camera, the film is a document of their attempt to survive the most surreal, horrifying event of their lives.

A 'found footage' movie with a big budget, "Cloverfield" works for me because at its heart is a romance movie. The hero is on a quest to save his loved one and nothing will divert him, not even a big monster tearing up the city. The only sour note is that the lead actor could be a whole lot more convincing, since most of the cast is.
