The satisfaction of visual effects is far greater than the content itself

The movie has a lot of laughs, and it basically makes people laugh from beginning to end. But the movie itself is a cliché of typical American personal heroism.
The only bright spot is the U.S. president who is so frustrated and mentally retarded that he appears to be a little eloquent. Just like Bush Jr.
There are three parts that make me feel very mocking and spoofing. One is that the little friend at the beginning screams in fright, the second is that the president shows the electronic organ to the robot, and the third is that the three of them encountered a copy when they escaped. Dialogue with the octopus monster. It's still pretty solid for entertainment.

Monsters vs. Aliens quotes

  • Derek Dietl: Wow, you really are big.

    Susan Murphy: Yeah, but I'm still me. I'm still the same girl you fell in love with.

    Derek Dietl: Except you did just destroy the Golden Gate Bridge.

    Susan Murphy: Well, but that was the only way I was gonna stop that giant robot. Did you ever think I could do something like that?

    Derek Dietl: No, I didn't. I can honestly say that it never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever occurred to me.

  • Susan Murphy: Look, I-I know this is a little weird. Okay - it's a lot weird. But we'll figure it out. I know that together, we can find a way to get me back to normal.

    Derek Dietl: Susan, try and look at this from my perspective. I have an audience that depends on me for news, weather, sports and heart-warming fluff pieces. So you expect me to put all that on hold while you try to undo this thing that happened to you, that I had absolutely nothing to do with?

    Susan Murphy: Yes. That's exactly what I expect. What-what about the life that we always talked about? Don't you still want that?

    Derek Dietl: Of course. I just... don't see how I can have that with you.

    Susan Murphy: [on the verge of tears] Derek, please. Don't do this.

    Derek Dietl: Oh, y-you have to faced facts, Susan. And don't crush me for saying this, but I'm not looking to get married and spend the rest of my life in someone else's shadow. And you're casting a pretty big shadow. I'm sorry. It's over. Good luck, Susan.
