      Not like a normal sci-fi movie~

      Obviously the director wants to express the discussion between human nature, man and nature, man and disaster; but the whole story is a little loose, a little messy, not compact, and the director often stops abruptly when the climax is approaching, which is unpleasant~ ~
           But the ending is more meaningful, and it is still worthy of praise. If the last two bishops hug instead of kissing, I think it will be better and more meaningful.
         Overall, I think it's still worth watching,...

      You must be kidding me!

      This film is not simply ugly, but it makes people angry!

      What is the movie about? There is no sense of crisis for the two of them in the whole film, and it doesn't feel like they are in a foreign land with monsters! In the evening, I also drink and go to the night market parties, flirting and flirting all the way, one has a fiancé and the other fails to ask for love and turns to prostitutes. On the road, I wonder why the locals have guns, and there are monsters. Hey, brother, don't use...

      Put life and love under the fear of the unknown

      Watching this movie can't let the title put expectations on the point of a monster movie or a horror movie, because it's actually a romance movie, with a view on life, but the two are placed in a monster scene, I think It's an amazing combination.

      The last ending I think is quite interesting: monsters don't seem to actively attack humans, so the previous disaster is more like the defense of monsters? And the two protagonists, in the scene of leaving the monster, will live their unhappy...

      Monsters over the wall, love breaks through

      A pair of young men and women also don't know what they really want in life. Against the background of the roar of fighter planes, the explosion of bombs on the horizon, the spread of war ruins, and the bedrock of the dead, they embark on an uncertain journey of life and death through the forbidden land of monsters. At the beginning of their journey, they wanted to go home, but at the end of the journey, they witnessed a grand love of alien beasts. They finally plucked up the courage to face...

      Some things are unstoppable

      I don't understand political metaphors or anything. The beginning of the film is a continuation of the plot at the end. The heroine was injured and fell to the ground, the hero roared and picked her up, and behind him was the American soldier fighting monsters. From the plot point of view, the walls built by the Americans themselves cannot resist the entry of the monsters. In the last second of the night vision screen of the title, the moment before the missile hits the monster, the background...

      The story is low-level, too literary, and completely incomparable with the ninth district. I wanted to learn the ninth district, but I learned four different things. Only the last part of the monster mating is more enjoyable to...

Since then, many areas of Mexico have been infected by mysterious alien creatures, and hundreds of people have lost their lives. The United States sent troops to fight against the huge alien Monsters, and suffered heavy casualties.

    Evaluation action

    In the micro-cost movie "Monsters", the director created countless huge monsters and used them to create "artificial" tension with their magical attacks. Although it doesn't look as magnificent as a Hollywood blockbuster, considering the cost factor, the effect is amazing. But if this "sci-fi coat" is stripped off, the film is actually a small and fresh romance. (Timeline Review) 
    As a monster disaster film, the focus of "Monsters" is...
