If there is one movie this year that you would expect bar none to be the most fun this year, then that movie would have to be Monsters Vs. Aliens. Why? An irresistible premise, a massive ensemble comedic cast and boasting... Full review

I was disappointed in this film and nearly feel asleep. The voiceovers were blah, the animation ok for computers but not spectacular, and the story was awful. I would not recommend seeing this film.... Full review

I'm beginning to wonder whether the 3D novelty is wearing out already, especially if slapped on films that think the beauty of visual effects and animation take precedence over a solid story. Everything here worked to a perfect T, from the... Full review

Very enjoyable film, BUT it lacked proper flow and direction. Misses the generations older than 10. Never really made full use of 3D effects. Characters were well portrayed but sometimes overdone. Way too much shown in the previews -destroyed any surprises.... Full review

Monsters and Aliens was a poor clichéd animated outing from Dreamworks. I found some of the pop culture and repetition in an attempt to get cheap laughs were embarrassingly bad. In particular the part where the President tries to make peace... Full review

Though the movie pokes fun at the clichés of Hollywood cinema, more than once it falls prey to the same clichés in its own storyline.....A gooy battle, splotched with B.O.B's timely humour, ensues;....Monsters vs. Aliens is not a bad movie;.... ... Full Review

There are moments when "Monsters vs. Aliens" manages to be clever, but on the whole it remains a piece of fluff, pleasant but forgettable.....Seth Rogen can play a genuinely funny role instead of just a buffoon spouting crude humor.....Colbert doesn't do anything wrong....it can make an otherwise good film drag.....My favorite moment of the movie was when he tried to hit on a gelatin mold..... ...
