Opinions of a Wolf

Summary:
Susan is about to get married when a meteor hits her, turning her into a giant.  The US government quickly brings her to its monster facility, where she meets other monsters.  Soon an alien invades Earth, seeking the material in the meteor that made Susan a giant.  The monsters must fight the alien, while Susan tries to come to grips with her new life.

Review:
This is an awful movie. Down-right awful.  It was so bad that even though it’s only 94 minutes long, I didn’t finish it.  None of the jokes worked.  The storyline made zero sense.  I mean, the meteor landed on top of Susan.  She definitely would have been crushed prior to being able to soak up any special substance.  The way the monsters are handled completely misses all opportunities for humor.  Omg they have super-powers but can’t seem to use them properly. Hilarious. *eye-roll*  Then there’s the invading alien.  I don’t even know if we were supposed to find him threatening or funny, but he was certainly neither.  Dreamworks, how did you manage to go so wrong?  Especially with the gift of such a talented voice cast including Seth Rogen, Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, and Stephen Colbert.  This should have been epically funny, instead of an epic waste of time.

Save yourselves from this disaster, folks.  There are plenty of other worthy animated movies out there to spend your time on.
