REVIEW: Monsters vs. Aliens (2009)
Monsters vs. Aliens isn’t a movie I recall being particularly jazzed to see. Starring Reese Witherspoon and released in 2009, Monsters vs. Aliens attempts to satirize B-movies of the 1950s as Shrek did for fairy tales and Megamind would later do for superhero films. The action-comedy explores ...
