To me, this movie is perfection.
Nice effects though.
I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Loner teen Tripp wants to leave the small North Dakota town where he lives: he has issues with his mother's cop boyfriend, and has very few friends. Meanwhile, the local oil drilling company drills through to a subterranean lake, only to find that something is living down there. And that something comes to the surface, and suddenly a boy and his (engineless) truck have a motive power they never expected.This film is made up of bits and pieces taken from other, higher profile films, and nailed together. It is a high-school movie with the disaffected teen who doesn't fit in at school or at home. There is the budding teen romance between two characters who never expected it. We have heartless ecological vandalism on the part of big business. We have a security operative who is quite prepared to kill. James Cameron's The Abyss has been rifled for key moments. You will spot other movies which have "donated" assorted elements.Yet the bits fit together quite well, helped by three main things. One, the scenery (British Columbia standing in for North Dakota) is attractive and gives a sense of production value. Two, the monsters are very well realised, often funny, and hugely sympathetic. There is a strong sense of character and communication, which is commendable given that there is no spoken word from them: the CGI is excellent. And, three, the main characters are all likeable, If a film is average, the fact that you take pleasure in being in the company of the characters can make a big difference to how enjoyable the film is, and this movie is a case in point.Monster Trucks isn't going to hold many surprises for the average adult filmgoer, but it is amiable with a certain goofy charm to it, and there were a couple of moments - entirely daft, to be sure - where I felt like punching the air and shouting "Yes!" I left the cinema with a smile on my face and, in my world, that is a recommendation.
This movie was a trip to memory lane. It's a modern version of movies such as E.T., Bigfoot and any other eighties and nineties movies where a kid finds and protects an alien (or other kind of creature) from a government or any other association. So it's not anything new, story wise, but it brings a whole new take to the genre. I really loved Creech and its childlike behavior and the chemistry between Creech and Tripp and Meredith. The action scenes looked great! The scene where they are chased through the town and make their escape by jumping the train was great to look at.It's not a movie with great depth but it doesn't require to be. I've seen movies with more depth that really sucked. This one is so underrated and deserves more credit!Great job, Chris Wedge!
My son went to see this film with his friends and they left before the film finished yet they were the target audience!The film is not great but it is family friendly and cheesy with not too good special effects. It lacks the bombast as well as the verve of the Transformer films.High school teenager Tripp (Lucas Till) works part time in a junkyard when he finds a large slimy creature that consumes oil and takes shelter in the hood of a truck which the monster can control.The oil company whose fracking activities unleashed the monster have sent a team to hunt it down as Tripp with a high school friend Meredith try to evade them. They get help from Tripp's mom's boyfriend who is the sheriff and get hindered by Tripp's dad.The film has a pro green agenda but the script is a bit dumb and so is the lead actor.
The story is simple, not a smart one, not a funny one (ok, a bit). Just a simple story for an evening entertainment. Not a great story to be taught. Several months passed since we watched this, only 3 years old boy somehow remembers the monster truck, the rest of kids never discussed it, what I see is quite bad for such a budget.
