Source This film packs an emotional punch like few others. Directed by J.A. Bayona, it taps into deep wells of longing, loss and grief through a truly imaginative lens. The central concept of a tree-like monster awakening to help a boy cope with his mother's impending death is beautifully realized. It's haunting yet hopeful, scary yet comforting. I was in awe of how the monster's fables wove real life lessons…More

It's anyone's guess as to why this film managed to lose money because it certainly had a lot going for it. It had big names in the cast, it had a massive budget, it had some really great CGI that was showcased in the posters and trailers, it was released around the Christmas holidays, and early reviews were mostly positive. So what's the deal here? source *A Monster Calls* is a fantasy film (this could be the first…More
Fuente OPINIÓN El pasado domingo vi en Netflix «Un monstruo viene a verme» y me dejó una buena impresión, ya no solo por la manufactura de la película, que es espectacular, sino también por su narrativa, que trata un tema tan peliagudo como el de la muerte en el mundo de la infancia, sobre la incomprensión de un niño, que no entiende el proceso de la enfermedad y la muerte y esa incomprensión lo lleva a viajar por e…More
