Synopsis

When a NASA probe crash landed in the jungles of Mexico six years ago, it brought with it some unwanted stowaways from outer space. Now the Mexican and American militaries have quarantined the area, creating a no-man’s-land infested with alien monsters.

After being ripped off by a Mexican travel agent, two Americans now face a terrifying journey through the so-called ‘infected zone’, in a desperate attempt to reach the safety of the U.S border.

Some people are really missing the point here, its an intelligent take on a monster movie coupled with a romantic element of two people thrown together in difficult circumstances that ends up with you realising the aliens are not so alien at all, a lovely film

Even if I didn't know about the budget constraints I would have loved this film, refreshingly original and meticulously paced. Not really a monster film, but definitely a fantastic film.

Not the monster movie i was expecting.

Should have read these reviews first. The trailer lets you believe that something happens but nothing does, the film leads you to believe that something is just about to happen but it never does! It tells 'a story' with a romantic edge but lacks in everything else you expect. Now i didnt think it would be a gun slinging monster shoot them up but glowing fungi??? Good premise and nice to see a movie try to show the aftermath of aliens living on our planet but it just lacked punch and the characters are pretty bland. It needed a much better script to help you engage with the main characters as thats all it has. Poor film and now i kind of wish i could get a refund - better films in the free selection honest!!!!

I could have captured more action with the camera on my mobile phone at the checkout of my nearest Tesco's. The trailer gives the appearnace of a rugged, inspiring and somewhat aciotn filled filmed - What a let down! Me and my partner actually found ourselves asking "Is this one of those 3 hours epic films that take 1 hour and a half to get going (But then delivers) - Sadly, No! It takes an hour and a half to make you realize that you should have chose another film to watch.

Its atmospherically well done, and well made considering the budget and the acting is fine. I wasnt expecting a big crash bang monster movie but I was expecting SOMETHING. Nothing happens in this movie, absolutely nothing, a couple make a fairly uneventful journey and you vaguely see the outline of some monsters occasionally in the background. Very occasionally. Now the point of the film isnt the monsters I realise its how the couple engage but to be honest that is boring too. They dont actually have any in depth conversations about anything, very little indeed is explored emotionally and the dialogue is flat and uninteresting. A huge disappointment. Four out of ten for atmospherics, the rest is pretty damn dull.

I was looking for a good 'sci-fi' film to watch one night and came across the trailer for Monsters.
It has a lovely pace to it and despite the moody atmosphere, I thought it was a beautiful film.
It doesn't have the big budget CGI effects of other films, but it does very well with what it has. Great score too.
I really liked this movie.
