Plots(1)

When Susan Murphy is unexpectedly clobbered by a meteor full of outer space gunk, she mysteriously grows to 49-feet-11-inches tall and is instantly labeled a "Monster" named Ginormica. The military jumps into action, and she is captured and held in a secret government compound filled with other "monsters" like herself. This ragtag group consists of the brilliant but insect-headed Dr. Cockroach, P.H.D.; the macho half-Ape-half-fish The Missing Link; the gelatinous and indestructible B.O.B.; and the 350-foot grub called Insectosaurus. Their confinement time is cut short however, when a mysterious alien robot lands on Earth and the motley crew of Monsters is called into action to save the world from imminent destruction.

English The ultimate blast! Instead of the tired self-awareness stories, the creators of Shrek came up with an action-packed blockbuster that's bursting with references (I was screaming with laughter at the keyboard!), great humor, and a punishingly huge barrage of catchphrases. It’s ninety-four minutes of undiluted entertainment that will be appreciated especially by the older folks (those who enjoy the aesthetics of 1950s monster movies will snort with delight). Cartoon of the year, no question about it! ()

English For all the tripping up, dancing around and hitting of heads with a imaginable things, they forgot about... Well, about everything, in fact. All hail the exceptions in the form of the original dubbing, what was written on the rocket and those few good nods to the monster/UFO B-movies of the fifties. ()

English In terms of entertainment and jokes, I think it’s unexpectedly weak. I can’t complain about the animation or the story, which again brings something new and surprisingly tries to push the envelope quite a lot. Unfortunately, though, I don’t remember anything particularly interesting or amusing during the film, or a character that I grew to love, which I perceive as a big flaw in these animated films. A level below Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. ()

English A pleasant, animated blockbuster that parodies a large group of American sci-fi and horror film productions. It is not as strong in terms of plot as it is with a series of catchphrases, a likable team of heroes, and a villainous antagonist. Overall impression: 70%. One of those movies that will please children and not offend adults. ()

English I really can't help it... it was making me feel slowly nauseous. I don't understand how, it's never happened to me before, but this one disgusted me so much that as much as I hate to give a garbage rating, this deserves nothing less from me. I'm really sorry, but the boredom and disgust this film stirred up in me is just unforgivable. ()
