...measures up to the finest indies for performance and character-work, and the biggest blockbusters for jaw-dropping effects. And it has the year’s best sex scene, too.

This is a very postmodern sci-fi, with its downbeat approach to the monsters themselves, but with a hugely involving love story.

Lyssværd og rumskibe er tilsidesat til fordel for en mere realistisk tilgang, hvilket også afspejles i filmens stil med håndholdt kamera og on location-optagelser.

Jag gillar tanken bakom "Monsters", att göra en mer lågmäld alienfilm med ironisk titel som ska få oss att ifrågasätta USA som världsmakt och människans rädsla för allt som är okänt.

After a space probe crash-lands in Mexico, extraterrestrial life forms spread throughout the region, leading to a quarantine of the northern half of Mexico. US and Mexican troops battle to contain the creatures, while a journalist agrees to escort a shaken tourist through the infected zone to safety.
