I saw this in a theater today and it was incredible! I'm sad because most of the people I've told about it are in no way "monster" movie fans. It's really sad because they're missing out on a miraculous story about redemption and acceptance, and the movie itself is a wonderful project full of heart & made on a budget that Hollywood has probably scoffed at.
I say see it in a theater because the sound, sound effects, and score are marvelous! Go see it!
