virginiakublawi | Apr 27, 2021 | 0

Monsters vs. Aliens isn’t a movie I recall being particularly jazzed to see. Starring Reese Witherspoon and released in 2009, Monsters vs. Aliens attempts to satirize B-movies of the 1950s as Shrek did for fairy tales and Megamind would later do for superhero films. The action-comedy explores ...

I’ve always wondered why people don’t often discuss DreamWorks Animation’s hand-drawn animated films. Maybe it’s because the studio itself so rarely promotes them, or perhaps they got swept up in all the other traditionally animated movies of the day. Aside from The Prince of Egypt, all ...
