| What the world needed (by zacevans) |
| Monster Truck is one of the greatest movies ever made, move over godfather, Monster Trucks is king. With a very deep narrative, beautiful animation Seriously sometimes I can't even tell if something is cgi or not and comedy that rivals the greats such as Jerry Seinfeld, Kevin Hart and the greatest of them all, Adam Sandler, Monster Trucks will leave you on your knees begging for more.I'm afraid that people are not ready for monster trucks. It has some fierce competition this January with movies like xXx and Resident Evil. Monster Trucks really should have been a summer movie or a <more> |
| Great fun for kids (by ross-988-436610) |
| I took my youngest child, six years old nearly seven , to see this yesterday. He bounced around like Tigger the whole way through, and only paused to turn around once in a while to tell me "This is the best movie ever!" This coming from a boy who loves everything from Harry Potter, Star Wars, Top Gear and Grand Tour , to Tractor Ted and Octonauts.As an adult, it was a perfectly acceptable way to spend a couple of hours enjoying the company of my child. There's not a lot to the story, so if you've seen the trailer you won't be surprised. The monsters straddle the line <more> |
| Best creature film since ET (by shepherdadam) |
| Awesome film, with something for everyone, lots of very funny scenes, tonnes of great stunts, good family themes and plot, and even the Monster truck fans will love the outragous actions of Creech and the trucks.So while the world and everyone is worried about idiots, terrorists and Armageddon...along comes a great film like this to brighten the outlook of the world....should be more films like this! This film had the same feel that I got back in the 80s watching ET for the first time.The film is fantastically rounded, and a film where every character gets exactly what they deserve, that <more> |
| Good, fun flick for all ages (by davepond) |
| Not sure why so many are hating on this one, or basing reviews on what happened before it got to screen.Took my 4-, 8-, 12-year-olds to see it on Saturday. All three of them enjoyed it, and I did, too. Simple enough story for the kids to understand, with little in the way of violence, profanity, sex to battle through. Acting was good, as was the CGI. don't go in expecting The Godfather or anything -- but for a family-friendly flick with a good message, this serves its purpose extremely well. The "monsters" are cute enough for the most part and, when they bare their teeth, <more> |
| Fun, adventurous, quirky comedy. Perfect for the whole family (by rannynm) |
| This is the fun, adventuresome comedy that is perfect for the whole family. In this stupendous movie, there is a fun story line, quirky characters and terrific graphics. The way they incorporate each and every person's unique talents and personality traits is incredible. On top of that, there is an adorable comedic monster that is not scary but cute, silly and goodhearted. This movie is about a teenager named Tripp Lucas Till and his tutor Meredith Jane Levy . One day, Tripp finds a remarkable creature that has never been heard of before. He decides to keep the creature and names him <more> |
| Better than most modern movies! (by joeroboston) |
| I know I might seem biased to Lucas till stuff,but he is a good actor! Anyway,this movie was greatly enjoyable,and the action was beautifully done! Creech was an adorable character,you have to be heartless to dislike him! Thomas Lennon Felix from the odd couple was very funny in this,especially his sweating problem,which was very enjoyable! Everything just fits,so you must watch this enjoyable family-friendly movie! |

| Great film to watch with your sons. (by regencyroofing-94-767993) |
| Watched Monster trucks today with my five year old son and we both loved it. He was pretty much glued to the screen the entire time and he got a bit teary at the end! The film centres on a lad who spends all his spare time building a truck at a junkyard he helps out around, three undiscovered squid like creatures escape from a nearby oil drilling project. One of these finds his way into the truck and ends up powering it and of course the usual bad guys want it back story line evolves. Nothing new in terms of originality or plot, in fact it had so many plot holes it was ridiculous but it's <more> |
| Great Family film (by starscreamuk) |
| Starts off by giving little information about some of the core characters. Slowly building up to the first meeting with "creech".My Kids absolutely loved it, they don't care about CGI, does it look like another, or how hammy some of the acting may be. They wanted to see an fun, entertaining film, and they certainly got that!In some ways the creature reminded me of "Toothless" from How to Train a Dragon, but that would be down to it being a child.Overall, the plot was great for a family movie, few minor plot holes, but the kids didn't notice that nor should they <more> |
