Clearly the people rating this movie 1 or 2 stars have no clue what terribly unaware critics they are. This movie is an amazingly suspenseful, joy ride of horror/ sci-fi, top grade B movie magic! It's unique and different and it's a shame people don't see that. It's Grindhouse on a big budget and I love it. If you love Nicolas Cage style B movies. You'll love this.

This movie deserves a much higher rating than the reviews I've read here. I'm giving it a full 10, because I haven't felt so exhilarated after watching a movie in quite some time. Chloe was a force!! I haven't held my breath so much on stunt scenes in as long as I can remember. I had a similar feeling during classic Arnold and Clint Eastwood movies. Don't mess with Arnold, and definitely don't mess with Chloe!! As she says in the trailer, "You have no idea how far I'll go!" From the reviews, it look like some folks had a totally opposite reaction than me, but I am very happy I purchased this movie on Amazon Prime instead of just renting. It was available for early release. I will be watching it again. Many will remember Chloe from her iconic role as Hit Girl from the Kick Ass movies 11 years ago. As she aged, she has grown as an actress choosing dramatic roles, such as "The Miseducation of Cameron Post." She has a few horror flicks in her portfolio, including "Let Me In" from way back in 2010 when she played a very disturbing vampire child who never wore shoes. And of course, she played Carrie. This film is a good mixture of action and horror, and a great role for Chloe. I read reviews that said it was a step backward for her. I disagree. She shows her acting chops by getting us to care about her character as well as showing she hasn't lost her action hero instincts from her younger days as Hit Girl. I recommend this movie if you want to see a Kick Ass role for Chloe and if you are in the mood to sweat out some incredible stunts.

I saw the IMDb rating and thought that Shadow in the Cloud will be bad, but it isn't. It's not a great movie, but it's decent and fun. The dialogue at the beginning was over the top, It felt too aggressive and forced, but the second act and the third act were action packed and Moretz is great in it. Yes, the plot is very, very silly and cartoonish, but get over it - it's just a movie, not the real life. This is not a 4.2 movie, it it is at least 6.

First things first, if you complain about unbelievable things happening in a movie about gremlins attacking an airplane, you need to have your opinion license permanently revoked. "Shadow in the Cloud" is obviously meant to be viewed as a simple comic book style rip-roaring WWII adventure to be enjoyed like a cheeseburger or a pint of ice cream and not to be deeply analyzed for plot depth and realism. The hordes of egotists falling over themselves to prove how "above it all" they are need to loosen up and switch to decaff. Yes, absolutely ludicrous things happen in this movie, and that's what makes it fun! Is everyone really so hopped up on dopamine from constantly scrolling through social media that they can't let go and enjoy a zany movie? Chloe Moretz' performance was captivating and thrilling from start to finish. These are the kind of roles she was born to play and it was clear that she had an absolute blast making the movie. The rest of the cast were clearly there to be functional, forgettable cardboard cutouts, and the energy of the movie would have suffered if they'd been directed to draw attention away from the main character. I'm confident that in a decade this movie will be found on film lists under the heading "Cult movies that were despised on release". I'd love to see a sequel!
