Bon film !

This awful cheaply animated film is so dark that you can't even see anything that is happening. Not even street lights seem to be turned on and when there is light it doesn't even light anything up. I get that it's supposed to be dark and at night but when you can't see anything it comes off as cheap and lazy and adds to losing interest in this film. The appeal is seeing some characters we don't often get to see on screen but I didn't really care for any of them. Voice cast is serviceable. Overall not a great product put out by marvel. Such is the way with a majority of their animated films.

A nice film, not that interesting for me, the plot is intriguing but not to an extent. Also, I wouldn't say it brought many Halloween or spooky vibes to my mind, I wouldn't consider it a Halloween movie, in aspect of the mood, although it does take place on Halloween night.

I loved this, I'm an adult and have watched it a couple of times through the years on Netflix. Excellent voice acting, an imaginative plot, and the addition of the offbeat Paranormal Containment Unit (especially Sitwell, his lines cracked me up) make this a fun and entertaining adventure. I would definitely recommend it, as well as Iron Man/Captain America: Heroes United on Netflix which was also excellent :)

Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell was much better than I expected. Why is there no disc release of it? I would like to have a physical copy for my private collection. I haven't liked an animated Marvel feature this much in years. Why does that terrible "Superheroes Frost Fight" (Essentially "How the Loki stole Christmas") get a DVD but not this?! The plot is this. Nightmare is abducting children in astral form as they sleep and replacing them with monsters from their nightmares. He tries to manipulate Hulk with his secret fear of Banner. And it involves a team consisting of a zombie SHIELD agent Sitwell, Vampire by Night (werewolf by Night's niece), Warwolf and Man-Thing. One of the best lines is Banner: "Are you going to give me the old Magick is science we don't understand yet?" Dr. Strange replies "Has it occurred to you that science is magick we don't understand yet." This was far better than I expected. I wish Marvel would utilize it's selection of Gothic Monsters and not just for a Halloween direct to streaming movie. This deserved a DVD. I hope next time they incorporate their Frankenstein Monster. And I don't mean the Ultimate Spider-Man Universal Studios knock-off version. I mean the shaggy haired (not flat headed) and well spoken Frankenstein Monster like who appeared in Daredevil 033 2013. I miss the Marvel monsters. We need more stuff like this. It was well animated and though appealing for kids it does not talk down to it's audience.

Okay, today is Halloween so I am going to review Hulk where monsters dwell. If you are a massive fan of Hulk and The Agents of SMASH, Avengers Assemble, Ultimate Spiderman and Guardians of the galaxy. Then you would defiantly enjoy this movie. I even have to say it was defiantly more towards a darker tone than usually but it was still bearable. I do think though the voice acting was short because Nightmare had a new voice actor and good talents like Laura Bailey were wasted in this movie because she mainly voiced a girl called Anna in this movie, she normally voices black widow in the other shows. This was definitely a scary movie for children and on top of that, they put child love in the movie in one scene because Anna was too scared to walk through a portal Benito and she were HOLDING HANDS and in the last scene she asked him to call her and she blows him a kiss. Those two kids are like 9-12 and they added love between them? My other complaints are that Jasper was a Zombie for some reason. I have to admit as well the trailer did definitely look promising. But at least it isn't your usual childish Marvel cartoon.

While I am not a fan of superhero movies or Marvel in general, then I still sat down to watch "Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell" because my six year old son do enjoy them. The story in this 2016 animated movie wasn't particularly impressive, and it was actually bordering on being ridiculous in my opinion. My son did enjoy parts of it, but even his interest was failing throughout the course of "Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell". I wasn't particularly much fan of the art and drawing style that they had settled for in this animated movie. The lines and features were just too prominent and didn't really look good. It just lacked that smooth feel to it that many other animated movies has. And as for the characters in the animated movie, well I am, of course, familiar with Hulk, and somewhat familiar with Doctor Strange (and now do have another chance to watch yet another Marvel movie). I wasn't familiar with Nightmare, but for good reasons. Wow, that character was bad, not just in motivation, but also in dialogue and in everything he did in the movie. For an animated movie to be enjoyable, it needs to have good animation, which this movie really didn't have, and it needs to have a good cast of voice actors and actresses for the various roles. Now, I will say that they people they had cast for the voice acting in "Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell" actually did good jobs. I wasn't impressed with "Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell", but then again, I am not a Marvel fanboy. But even my son, whom enjoy superheroes quite a bit, wasn't colored impressed with this 2016 animated movie either. So I am setting on a four out of ten stars rating for "Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell".

On Halloween night, monsters begin to assault Dr. Strange in his Sanctum Sanctorum. The Incredible Hulk comes to answer the sorcerer supremes' mystic summons, but the strongest Marvel hero is plagued with random sleeping that changes him back to puny Bruce Banner. The two heroes, alongside the Howling Commandos (consisting of Warwolf, Nina Price, Man-Thing, and Agent Jasper Sitwell) must team up, as the monsters are kids, transformed as such by the evil Nightmare, a demon who rules the Dream Dimension (and looks like Alice Cooper) who plot to use the kids' fear to empower himself, enabling him to invade the waking world. For a Halloween-themed movie, it's pretty good. The story is interesting, the action scenes are good, and the voice actors all do a good job. The only thing I don't like how the movie has low lighting, making some scenes hard to see if watched on certain devices. But it is a good movie and worth watching.
