Review of A Monster Calls (2016) by Claude H — 19 May 2017

Rarely do films risk breaking various 'assigned' targets within the industry, but this masterpiece challenges and smashes this out of the park! Nitpick at will if you prefer excitement and mystery, this visually spectacular and darkly haunting tale is full colour( literally and metaphorically ), stirring performances and a direct and heartfelt message.

This allows the film to both connect with younger audiences in relevant and magical ways, and echo into older audiences with it's real tone and wisdom.
