RottenTomatoes Score: 60% (5.8/10) Box Office: The $56 million Chinese 3D adventure film has grossed an impressive $385.2 million to date, making it China's highest-grossing film, even though there has been a measure of controversy about whether or not ticket sales had been fraudulently inflated. Verdict: A simple, easy-to-watch action adventure aimed at children, Monster Hunt doesn't really get many points for originality or intelligence (it's about a war between men and humans, surprise, surprise), but it moves fast, refusing to stay anywhere for too long, and certainly boasting a solid action quotient. Sure, the CGI is really rough considering the budget and western audiences might find it to goofy, but it's a gleefully silly, enjoyable production all the same.
Stay at home dad who spends as much time teaching his kids the merits of Martin Scorsese as possible (against the missus' wishes).
General video game, TV and film nut. Occasional sports fan. Full time loon.
