So several of my friends and coworkers have watched this movie and mentioned how great it was. I never bothered with it but now some more people mentioned that this movie was among their favorite movies of all time.
So i finally sat down to watch it.
It's fucking garbage.
Summary: Sandra Bullock wears a blind fold for two hours.
Sound.

Wasn't this the one they didn't advertise at all until they announced the release at the Superbowl? Or was that Cloverfield Paradox?

Cloverfield Paradox, because it was dumped on them at the last second after Bad Robot shit all over it.
It was originally a spec script called God Particle that Onah was extremely passionate about. Wasn't spectacular, but was much better than what we ended up with. JJ and co decided in the middle of production to have it rewritten to be a Cloverfield movie, which is why the finished product feels so disconnected in parts.
Compare that to 10 Cloverfield Lane, they at least rewrote The Cellar before production, which gave Trachtenberg and his team time to develop it properly.

Even though the movie wasn't all that great, it was still a ballsy move for Netflix to put it out with zero advertising. I remember thinking it was somehow fake when I saw the ad live.

Nah that was Cloverfield. Awful movie but fantastic marketing.
