Worse than expected

Rating: 4/10 (27 March 2016)

*SPOILERS*
I'm so, so sorry, but I think my expectations went a bit too high for this film. Reese Witherspoon, that unfunny actress that acted in Legally Blonde and Legally Blonde 2 comes and acts in Monsters VS Aliens, a movie that sounds like it will be tons of fun and will have heaps of laughs and (family) action scenes. Boy, was I wrong. Only a couple of scenes of action were in this movie. But that was not the bad part. The reason that this film is so utterly bad is because the "jokes" aren't even jokes! I think I just found out how to give people cancer, and that's to watch this movie! The film makers did an awful job with the jokes and quotes, and the storyline was terrible, plus it didn't even have enough action to entertain us through this horrible animated family comedy. Don't get me wrong, I like a lot of family comedies. I also like a lot of family actions. Although this had more action then most family animated films, it had less laughs than most family animated films! Let me start off with how the movie starts.
The movie starts off with a woman (Reese Witherspoon) in a relationship with a man, and she gets struck with a meteorite that turns her into a giant. Reese Witherspoon is then stuck into a top secret government facility with MONSTERS...that have terrible quote lines. Hip hip, hooray. So, meanwhile, in deep space, Gallaxhar the purple alien sends ...let's say something to find an energy source on earth. But of course, it has to land in America, doesn't it? It wouldn't be an action film then! So, the fictional president makes contact with the something, and the something goes and has a party at San Francisco. Yes, I know. Terrifying.
The top secret facility lets out the monsters that tell horrible jokes out of the prison of unfunny monsters so they can destroy the something. So, they kill the something. Then an alien comes and so on...I won't tell the rest of the story, just in case you do watch it. However, I recommend you don't watch this movie unless you are going to watch it with your kids. Your kids will love it, however, you probably won't.
4.4/10!
