Cour T @courtex 15 hrs ago It’s definitely more of a comedy than anything; not the dry, dark humour kind of dark comedy, but the over-the-top ridiculous kind of comedy. The drama side does still give a good story, the acting is good, the visuals are good, but I just wasn’t really expecting a comedy - not my taste See more kenneth S @RT75814168 Oct 11, 2026 How did this movie get a 93%. What were the critics watching that they looked at this movie as anything other than crap? This movie gets 1/16th of a star. See more Marc Z @TKDLife Oct 2, 2026 This is highly watchable Korean Monster movie and cautionary tale. In a fashion similar to thee original Godzilla this movie tells a not so believable tale about the impact of toxic dumping by humans into the environmental ecosystem. Korean movies are well made. They balance interesting characters and visuals with great stories. The special effects in this one are a bit primitive, but that sdoes not detract from the enjoyment.

But it didn't do anything particularly amazing either. I wasn't that invested in the characters, and had to force myself somewhat to stay interested in the story. I liked the comedy injected now and then, but some plot points were a bit lazily executed, like how the government seemed to have no interest in actually fighting the river monster. It was the family that did the things people in power should have done. And this is an interesting theme. A critique on authorities and sympathy for the little guy. Ultimately, the whole was less than the sum of its parts. See more Ivan R @RT88443011 Sep 22, 2026 Weird movie, but not bad.
