Ahh DreamWorks. They seem to have a little bit of everything. Some massive hits, some great films, and some massive losses, and TERRIBLE stuff too. And today we're discussing the movie with a title that you'd expect would be an easy viral hit, but it wasn't. Monsters Vs Aliens! So why wasn't it that loud and proud? What was it missing? And why is it cropping back up only now in memes? Whatever the case, I never saw this movie back in 2009, so here's our first impression of the movie. Perhaps it was ahead of it's time with a stellar cast and clairvoyant jokes. Or maybe.. it just flubbed the entire premised and put all their eggs in the wrong basket...

…Yeah. There's a lot of underwhelming choices in this movie. I would really call a giant a monster. Or a cockroach scientist. And a singular alien? A hilarious President character given two scenes? Nah. Someone along that way needed to steer this movie into a better direction. Capitalise on funnier elements. But they never did. And we're all left positively whelmed because of it.

I think this time you missed the mark on what this film is parodying. It's not about the so-called "classic" monsters, but instead about that cult monster era with films like The Creature from the Black Lagoon and 50ft Tall Woman. That's where the source lies and where all the jokes pull from. While comedy is subjective, I feel like you didn't get where the writers were coming from and assuming incorrectly what this film was supposed to be. This film isn't a masterpiece, but objectively it's pretty decent. There are jokes that don't land, but most do. This is, I feel, one of the most-quoted forgotten films. It's very iconic and there are a lot of great one-liners and jokes that everyone remembers, even if they don't know what film it's from. I think in this case Dazz just isn't the target audience for this film, and that coupled with some incorrect assumptions going in seems to have tainted his viewing experience.

Even having not watched this movie beyond videos like yours, I can tell where all these jokes are coming from. It's not a bad parody for children strictly on the character designs, things like the president communication, etc. They're being based on 1950s-1960s Americana monster films, that's why you have things like a scientist, and not witches and zombies and such.

Growing up, we left movies in the dvd player for days, even weeks at a time and would go to bed with movies on. I've probably watched this movie over 200 times. It was one of the longest left in movies and we kept putting it back in when we didn't have a movie we wanted to put in. I used to be able to quote the entire movie word for word with all the pauses between dialog. When I was like 11 years old XP. Will always be one of my favorite films. Along with Aliens in the Attic. These and dozens of other films we watched may not be the greatest, but the memories from when me and my brother were kids and quoting things back at each other was priceless and I love reliving those nostalgic memories. "You have chosen, instantaneous death."

Huh, never thought of it like that. I mean it makes sense, just I always laugh at that to imagine no self respecting science organization did or would certify someone like him. People just assume he was legit at one point because he's a doctor but he got his doctorate in dance and science was always more of a hobby doing dangerous and unethical projects out of his home. 😂 Of course I always love when media makes that joke because you assume someone is something because of their title but then it turns out to be unrelated. Like when calling someone the president, first thought might be of the country but then find out its just a company. Still important but it makes the stakes a lot smaller. Or when someone throws around an acronym the audience thinks they're talking about but it turns out to be something way different like saying they used to work for the FBI and then when danger actually comes up they explain they worked at a place like Frank Burton Investments or something which is local enough they thought everyone else knew.

I mean... I like this movie. I can understand other people's criticisms about it, but IMO this movie was not bad. I loved the dynamic between the monsters and I especially love the fact that Susan gained acceptance and grattitude with the monsters during her experience as Ginormica. She didn't need Derek to be happy and settle for a life of mediocrity. She wanted to go to Paris but was about to settle for Frescno and she got to go at the end of the movie. Plus, there were a few funny jokes in there and the president was pretty iconic. My critiques would be that there could be a better way to pace the story and climax and the villan could have had a better motivation to destroy Earth rather than a cliché one. And he barely explained a reason because he was too busy cloning himself. And I feel that the other monsters could have had their story told in a better way than being explained in a meeting room, but then again we wouldn't have Ms. Ronson's screams so I digress.

If anyone is interested in more analysis on this movie, I highly recommend watching Skullie By The Sea’s video essay “Monsters vs Aliens is a Feminist Masterpiece” here on KZfaq. No, the video isn’t THAT kind of backwards feminism (such as man bashing) if you’re worried about it, but rather, it focuses on Gigantica, her self worth, and how she is capable of doing great things despite the men in her life (aka, her douche ex) telling her she is a burden and that he doesn’t want to live in her shadow. It’s actually a really interesting and informative video, and it changed my opinion on the movie (which I didn’t really enjoy) into a more positive experience overall upon rewatches

It's how well they handled Susan/Ginormica! I still love that she's actually such a realistic young woman through and through, with such a good character arc about self-worth. And she's just a really chill, actually nice and strong female character. We stan Ginormica.

@@ViktoriaMagrey Fun fact: After Rex Havoc's rights were dropped, the plot was going to be a mix between Independence Day and DreamWorks' first film The Peacemaker, where Ms. Ronson (the original post-Rex Havoc protagonist) teams up with a colonel and the monsters to stop the aliens' plan from destroying major cities and disrupting cable TV service. Sony's Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs already had the disaster film concept in an animated film, so DreamWorks changed the plot to be a standard sci-fi monster film, Ms. Ronson reduced to executive-producer Latifa Ouaou's cameo role (screaming at first four monsters before the general kicks her out of the war room), and the protagonist went to Ginormica/Susan Murphy instead.

Monger, which of course is Warmonger despite the fact he's probably the most peaceful guy in the movie.

I personally like the grotesque designs of the people, for two reasons: 1.) In a movie about monsters being outcasts for being weird, having the 'normal human' characters look weird too outlines the hypocrisy, and; 2.) I'm 99.5% sure this is entirely coincidental, but the designs remind me of the Junji Ito / Satoshi Kon school of character design: Most human characters straddle the line between realistic and grotesque, save for the main female protagonist. The female protagonist tends to stand out even more in her beauty because of this, and is usually either the main victim of the horror, or is the horror herself. Susan fits both of those roles!
