Brian M One of the bleakest movies I’ve seen in a while. Very claustrophobic, menacing, and paranoid mystery with plot twists a-plenty. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/28/25 Full Review MikesReviewsArt n 89% The ending is up for interpretation either she’s surviving and told her what happened or she died and then the evil alien clone told the story and spread it either way it’s gonna get spread the word mouth thing. Interesting mystery as she tries to solve it about the black brick. The Messaging about the past, guilt. The lead gives a great performance effective closed space thriller, love those type of films. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Lucio Leonardo P Entertainment that was well-received by critics but that I didn't like. It has an originality that arouses our curiosity, maintaining a good atmosphere of suspense for a while, until it becomes tiresome, meaningless, without explanations and with an already "beaten" ending for the podcast talking about a monolith Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/10/25 Full Review Diane B It was good for about 70% of the movie and then took a turn for the worst! The storyline got confusing as though there was a rush to end it. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/17/25 Full Review Colin A An excellent, mysterious, and self contained film. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/25 Full Review Ben D One of the best “COVID Era” movies I’ve seen (although released in US theaters in 2024, it was filmed in 2022 and shown at the Adelaide Film Festival), Monolith has the obvious inspiration from 2001: A Space Odyssey, but is contained in one house with one actor appearing on-screen (Lily Sullivan) whose connection to greater society is a mystery to the very end. What begins with an anonymous email transpires into a story of childhood guilt. “The Interviewer” (Sullivan) is trying to rehabilitate her tarnished reputation after a defamation suit cratered her journalism career. Like a true journalist, she disregards all warnings to “stop asking questions” when her podcast concerning a “black brick” garners attention from all over the world. These “bricks” are mysterious and tantalizing with their origins uncertain and powers maddening. Kudos to Sullivan who carries this story with a range of emotions. The ending, while creepy, may leave you unsatisfied. Nevertheless, I’m with the critics on this one (84/45). It’s not so much horror and barely Sci-Fi, but definitely a gripping, one-woman, family-drama thriller. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/25 Full Review Read all reviews
