Few thriller movies can mess with your head to the point where you no longer know what is really happening there. 10 Cloverfield Lane is one of these films. After suffering a car accident, Michelle (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) wakes up over a mattress on the floor, locked in a basement room. Desperate, she receives the visit of Howard (John Goodman), who reports that the world as she knows no longer exists due to a chemical attack. He saved her and brought her into his bunker, where they are safe. Emmett (John Gallagher Jr.) was also helped by Howard and completes the last of the three leading characters. Suspicious of his history and not knowing whom to trust, she tries to get answers and find a way to leave the site.
The director Dan Trachtenberg did an impressive job playing with the public's expectations about what in fact is real or paranoia of the characters. We experience the same doubts as well as the protagonist Michelle. Much of this success is due to the actions of Mary Elizabeth Winstead, a mixture of vulnerability and strength, and John Goodman in one of the best performances of his career, with a dubious and unstable character, alternating between protective, threatening and crazy.
Tense and exciting, with a great picture and a tailored soundtrack, 10 Cloverfield Lane attempts to deceive you, provoking throughout the film the expression "what the fuck is going on?". Watch it and try to find out.
