Jen H. @Nifer01 Nov 7 Zoe and Ella delivered spectacular performances in this very simple yet emotional story. See more Chris H. @ChrisLovesMovies Nov 2 Unfortunately another movie about the characters lost in the woods with something strange after them. Unrealistic emergency response. Unrealistic character decision making. Even as a metaphor in the end was very annoying to watch and debated about not even finishing it. Good setting, good story mechanism, but unfortunately no payoff. See more Hayleigh P. @haytay.shows22 Jul 21 This actually wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. The mom wasn’t very smart about it though.. she could’ve survived if they had just done what the daughter did in the first place or at least hid out, (again, like the girl did in the closet) until daylight. That’s what I would’ve done. Okay but at the ending now what.. it’s an old road nobody takes anymore, she’s like 12, no phone or way to contact anyone, where does she plan on going..

It wasn't enough to push the film into "recommendation" territory though. See more Moon F May 17 This movie will spark any Mother's instincts and is a very emotionally fueled movie. Regrets, Love, Fear, Strength, Bravery, Maturity, Self reliance, Terror, Life. The Monster can be taken many different ways but the way I perceived it was this; Life is full of Monsters, and its a scary world for our kids to grow up in, especially if they dont understand that there are dangers that they will have to face without us. A Mother and a Daughters bond is the strongest in the Universe in my opinion, and this movie shows a broken bond. The Monster shows A Mother reflecting on very bad choices, and also shows just how much lil girls look up their Momma's whether they do wrong or not and that is what made this movie so emotional. Zoey Kazan should have won an award for the real and convincing acting she did in this movie...they both did! Great job! WATCH IT, BUT It made me cry..so take some tissues...:) See more Jesse H Mar 27 Don't know why so many dislike this movie? Just because there is no nonstop action? The horror aspect of it was great. Everyone can relate to being afraid in the woods at night. Also an unimaginable moster makes a debut so makes the guessing and scared aspect a bit better then most. One of the best non cgi movies I've seen. The music is also matched perfectly with this flick. Music has a huge impact, if you don't believe me check out some of your favorites I'm sure you will get the jest of it. Now on to the family dynamics....... WOW. The anxiety lvl brought up between the mother and daughters relationship is emmi worthy and makes the horror aspect better. One of mi favorite not only horror movie but favorite movie in general.
