Film yang bagus!

source: Monster Island

My brother recommended this movie but I normally don't watch cartoon shows but i don't regret seeing this movie. P.S I am pretty sure that the mermaid is the mother

Good animation, likeable characters and it kept my 3yr old quiet for an hour and a half.

When young Lucas discovers he's not really a human; the news changes your whole world. At a school dance, Lucas discovers he comes from a long line of monsters. Eager to find the rest of his family, he sets out for the island of Calvera. Especially since her first monster transformation happened in front of the most popular kids at school! So cute, these animations with parents and children (especially big daddy) cute, and bullying portrayed in such a common and sad way... And then the world of little monsters, what a cute thing, delicious to taste with the little ones, very cute and with that moral message to discuss with children... S2.

It certainly only caters for its target audience, though 'Monster Island' has its moments and I'm sure the young generation will like it. The animation is the weakest part to this though, which isn't a good sign in this genre. It's very low budget, on the same level as the type you'd see in old video games. Some of the static bits are alright, but all the live stuff (weather, effects etc.) look pretty terrible. The most interesting character is Johnny Rose's Norcutt, despite his under-developed motives. Away from that though, it's an OK film. The voice cast are acceptable, while the humour is probably pretty spot on for those it's aimed for. I will say though, there is one scene which actually did make me chuckle; it involves Jessie J's 'Bang Bang' song playing over it. All in all a fairly poor film, mainly down to the questionable animation, but I reckon the intended age bracket will somewhat enjoy.

This film actually surprised me with how good it was and made me laugh which was a great thing. I liked that it showed the bad guy throughout the movie and his plans as well as showing the boys and how he goes from a normal boy to a monster and then saving the day. Great family film and one I will definitely watch again.

This movie gives me very mixed feelings....the story feels of and doesn't have a very fluid pacing,then again the animation style isn't ugly and it's pretty unique.There are several animation errors and at the end they give some sudden message about family or something? (again..the pacing is wierd) It's a bad movie that I wouldn't recommend you to watch personally but I think a four year old could get some enjoyment out of it,hence why this review gets a 4 out of 10

Pretty boring for the concept. And I really didn't like the animation style

It's traditional in most movies to have what's called a colour palette, a finite range of colours which sets a mood and makes it easier on the eye, this movie eschews this tradition. Its standard of computer graphics reminds me of old Playstation FMV scenes that played out inbetween the game play, except with ALL THE COLOURS!! The animation itself isn't that bad, but it has that unsubtle mime-like kind of motion where everyone ducks, shrugs and gesticulates on every syllable whilst the camera floats from point to point in every scene. The voice acting often has that sound like someONE reading from a SCRIPT with no IDEA about the conTEXT or CHARacter, but they can do a funny voice or three so just read it with FEELING! The story itself is a reasonably well paced paint-by-numbers tale of going on a journey of self discovery, a 'child becomes a man' fantasy adventure, with the monster angle being used as an unsubtle analogy for adolescence, and by the end the currently obligatory single parent learns their lesson and promises to do better, everybody hugs, hearts are warmed with an upbeat pop song and a wink to camera, credits roll. It's a rainbow coloured cliche, but that won't put off those still young enough to enjoy it.
