The big monster looks PHENOMENAL. The smaller monster or monsters look cool too but the CGI is hit or miss. They showed the huge monster right off the bat in the first 5 minutes of the movie which I think was a huge mistake. The director did an awful job. The dialogue was terrible the editing was awful the score was crap. The movie was all over the place. There was a ton of Jurassic Park references like looking through the window with people in the car and the goat. The monster was so amazing looking especially in the rain and dark. I couldn't believe how great it looked for how bad the film was. The director has no sense of how to format a movie like this. They should never have shown the monster right off the bat. Show the point of view of the people and then show that they're missing or there are bodies but don't show the monster right away. Tease it and make the audience wait and let that build up and let the desire build and then finally when you show that big behemoth it will knock everyone socks off. The movie was all over the place it was really confusing. It's a shame because with a sweet monster like that and a good director with a quality script, and that could have been a really good movie. I would love to see Hollywood redo it with the same quality of the big monster, but with a director and writer that can tell a great story and actors that can do a much better job. I mean it was worth seeing just for the effects alone but everything else was absolutely horrendous.
