Monster Brawl (2011)

[InformationGeek]

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you a work of incredible proportions.  Nothing you've seen before was ever this epic before.  What you may see may blow your mind and bring tears to your eyes.  Behold!  The greatest monster bash for the modern era!

But seriously here, what can I say?  The trailer tells you everything you need to know.  The only thing I need is a date for when it hits theaters or DVD.  This must be seen.

Count.
Me.

That was awesome. 

You cannot tell me that that was not awesome, because it was.

Agreed.

You just know it's gonna be good.

Even if it's gonna be bad, it's gonna be good.

I'll be on this one like a mosquito on a nudist colony!!!

[WingedSerpent]

MUST SEE!!!!

I don't know what to say.

I don't know what to say.

I don't know what to say!!!

I haven't seen a movie that takes the pi$$ out of itself this much in a long, long time.  This could be ... I don't know what to say! 

And is that Lance Henriksen narrating the trailer???

*Resurrecting the old topic*

I just watched this. 

For anybody kind of expecting this to be a movie, it kinda isn't.  It's a series of wrestling matches with all the plot of your average pay-per-view wrestling match.  Plus a few shorts giving us the backstory of each monster, which is kinda nice. 

Still, it is really fun and has some nice monster designs, some decent fighting, and fun characters. 

Where else are you going to see Lance Henriksen calling out moves and achievements like a Mortal Kombat announcer? 

Plus it's got Jimy Hart being his normal "Mouth of the South" self, Kevin Nash in a role that feels like it was made for Hulk Hogan, and the Frankenstein's, Mummy, and the Wolfman fighting for a championship belt. 

There's a few nice touches as well.  In their pre-fight statements, Mummy's grunting is subtitled with Egyptian Hieroglyphics and the Swam monster's animalistic howlings are subtitled as statements about the environment. 

If you like the idea of Monsters in a Wrestling Match, then you'll probably like this.  There's little real substance to it, but it's fun.

That's about what I assumed it would be.  Netflix keeps sticking this in my suggested movies, and I keep ignoring it

Some movies are a draw for the sheer audacity of the concept!

I watched this on Netflix.  Turned off halfway thru.  It got annoying.

I truly hated this movie.  I'm not a wrestling fan, and I thought it would be so much more . . . .

[akiratubo]

I have never been so disappointed by a movie in my whole life.  I didn't even finish it.
