So this isn’t going to be a very long post, and I know it’s a day late, but it’s Easter, so I’m calling in a Holiday.

Now, if you’ve ever read the book as a child, you may be into this film. It’s kind of fun, seeing all the memorable monsters coming to life, and since they used suits instead of CG, it makes it that much better.

That being said, it’s really the best part of the movie. The main character Max, was hard to get attached to. The kid has a good life, his mother loves him, and gives him a good home, he has toys, a dog, everything a kid that age could every want or need. But his sister’s friend wrecks his igloo, and his Mom has company and can’t play with him, so he flips out and runs away from home. He’s a brat.And the monsters are the same, none of them are characters you can connect with, and the one that is the most relatable gets ignored for the majority of the movie.

Now, this isn’t to say that it’s not a decent movie. There are definitely people who would appreciate it a lot more than I did. I wont recommend this movie, but only because I wasn’t very impressed. But if your child at heart is still bugging you, it’s not absolutely horrid.

Either way, later.
