Surprisingly fun

At long last, someone has combined H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos with the Transformers franchise. The result is Monster Trucks, a silly but surprisingly enjoyable piece of family fluff that gets by with its affable spirit. There’s a lot of ironic detachment regarding this admittedly goofy premise: monster trucks that are literally trucks powered by monsters! No one will ever accuse this film of being in the same category as the thoughtful, geared-towards-all-ages fare that Pixar produces. But on its own merit, Monster Trucks is a lot of fun, and even charming at times: http://www.cutprintfilm.com/reviews/monster-trucks/
