I loved this film; loads of huge action sequences, great monsters. Made plans to go and see it again. I wish people would just go to the cinema and be entertained by a movie, not try and rip the story apart. It's a film about monsters being controlled by another monster from outer space!!!
As for an out an out monster spectacular, you won't be disappointed. Yeah, there are a few schlocky lines here and there but I'm willing to overlook them because I was simply overwhelmed but the fantastic assault on my senses. Loved it. Leave your brain at the door, enjoy it for what it is and don't take it seriously.
