If you have kids (or if you are kid-like) you should see Monster Trucks.
Monster Trucks is a kids movie that came out in 2017. Apparently, nobody saw it in the theater, including me, but I wanted to see it eventually. I finally got my chance and I have to say: the monsters are tooooooo cute!
Seriously, this movie spent money on the CGI and it shows. The monsters make expressions that make you laugh and melt your heart.
The high schoolers are typical, but they quickly become likable because of how they treat the monsters. The bad guys are horrible from the beginning and I cheered when they got their comeuppance.
Monster Trucks has a plot that has been done a million times before, but its charm rests in the fact that the monsters are so cute, and you wish you were riding in the trucks that they control.
The acting is solid, and as I said, the CGI is totally believable. Most important for me, I didn’t bawl at the end of the movie, I just teared up a little.
If you are looking for a fun movie to watch with your kids, or if you just like cute monsters, I recommend Monster Trucks. You can rent it on Amazon, find it on YouTube, or watch it on Sony Crackle for free. I imagine other channels have it as well. It will grab you just like the monsters grabbed an axle.
