Wonderful Movie
Simply A Masterpiece
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
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.
A young man working at a small town junkyard discovers and befriends a creature which feeds on oil being sought by a fracking company. Although Monster Trucks did received a better amount of reviews than anyone was expecting it to it still wasn't enough and personally after all those things that i have heard i had to see the film and judge it on my own and honestly i think that the movie did it's purpose and it was a hell lot of fun. What surprised me the most was how good the acting was and since it's a Nickelodeon film it really did surprised me a lot. Lucas Till, Jane Levy and Barry Pepper were pretty great and their performances did sold the movie for me, the characters were also very interesting and even tho Meredith (played by Levy) was kinda useless if you think about it she did save the day at the end. The movie also has some pretty good and decent cgi mostly with the monsters themselves who although scary at first they do get pretty sweet and funny as the film goes along. Overall Monster Trucks knows it's purpose and although it does get kinda over the top at times and it does have some mindless action sequences it's still a fun family film that kids will definitely enjoy and maybe just maybe even their parents as well.
