Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

mpieciukaityte Started okay, ended up very badly....hard to finish

moofyieman This movie is a discovery. Sometimes there is such a movie that is not easy to digest and you must watch again or discuss with your friends. It started out like a simple rom com around the lovely Anne Hathaway and flat goofy character Jason Sudeikis. Jason is still living in the place where they both grew up and at first it seems like your normal girl gets back to her sleepy home town and falls in love etcetera.I must say I was losing a little bit of interest at that time but then the movie changed pace and it capativated me totally. Well done Nacho Vigalondo! All characters grew in depth, Jason in particular. It is a movie about control actually. Control of yourself and others. Anne is out of control as her former boyfriend and herself say. She has no control over her alcohol use and behavior and Jason deals next to the same alcohol problem with serious anger and self issues. Such types as Jason has friends like the quiet and simple Austin Stowell and akward and always great playing Tim Blake Nelson with secrets all of his own.The bar he owns has a hidden back part which is not in use anymore and where he and his friends get drunk in. Anne opens this back part and all of this is of course a lovely metaphor for his life. There he changes drastically towards controlling everyone around him in a very abusing way. He is destroying the bar and himself with it. The swimmingpool scene with all those leaves is great by the way. Anne on the other hand is trying to take control back in her own hands and that control stuggle between all actors is very well done I think.People who just came for a comedy with monsters please go away. It is not about the monster in Korea, but in yourself. Everyone who understands and loves the underlying theme and character development, please watch movies with me!

travism-44784 A total waste of 2 hours of my life. Bad writing and bad acting and bad ideas for a movie sum up this bomb. Totally uninteresting and unoriginal.

finnhero Colossal is a great movie, that is not defined by a genre, rather it blends a lot of them together. The Acting in this movie is believable, at least on a standard "movie acting" level. The scenes where the characters are drunk don't always work, which is a shame, because those scenes are important to the movie. A lot of the problems people have with it are based on them not noticing that a lot of the changes one certain character goes through are obvious, especially after rewatching the movie, where you can see it clearly and them just not enjoying the movie, which is fair. It's not a movie, that everyone will enjoy. I enjoyed it for the characters, that start as your predictable protagonists, but end up having something, not new, but still refreshing enough to feel new when you watch it. I loved all the scenes with the creatures. Some metaphors and symbolism are obvious, if you paid attention and I really don't want to be this guy who, in defense of a movie, just says "people didn't understand it", but a lot of people seemed to miss important parts of the story, while I was reading some of the reviews, all I could think of was "did they even watch this movie?". I watched this movie twice and I liked both times. It's a kind of movie you don't get everyday, the story was sometimes predictable, but even when the things you predict happen, you don't get disappointed. It's at least a solid 7/10. Nothing below that.
