On the night of a happy marriage to a girl named Susan Murphy, she was under great pressure from a large meteorite filled with outer space, turning her into a giant on her wedding day, mysteriously turning 49 feet and 11 inches. Susan changed to Ginormica for an official mission . It was renamed Ginormica and became part of a team of monsters on orders from the US government to defeat one of the alienated masterminds trying to seize the land and protect the planet from destruction. Ginormica began her mission in a secret complex with other monsters such as Dr. Cockroach.
Inked more by its influences than originality, "Monsters" gets exhaustive with its rapid-fire references. That said, if this works as a shiny primer to one day introduce children to classic sci-fi, satire, fantasy and anime, well, more power to it.
As a child who loathed the wholesomeness of Disney and wholeheartedly embraced the madcap antics of Bugs Bunny, Wile E. Coyote and Daffy Duck this film was perfect for me.
[The voice cast] really delivered funny line after funny line throughout this.

Me quedé con hambre de más y es que siento que Dreamworks, fuera del verde Shrek, no ha encontrado la fórmula para darle verdadera batalla a Disney Pixar.
The film has some serious problems, the first being - and yes, I feel ridiculous for even attributing this complaint to a film with the above title - a completely pat narrative that seriously lacks character development
It's an affectionate, fairly funny riff on 1950s sci-fi movies, which often featured aliens, sometimes in the form of gelatinous glop, trying to take over Earth before earthlings, usually of the military variety, save the day.
At the altar... Susan sprouts to just under 50 feet tall, taking out the church roof and steeple in the process. Next time, raise higher the roof beam, carpenters.
Monsters vs Aliens is skilfully animated and spasmodically funny, but you get the impression the film's seven (!) writers ran out of ideas two-thirds of the way through.
