An oversized gal. A gelatinous life form. A half-human, half-fish. And on top of it, a gravelly-voiced general meeting the bespectacled president in the war room.
No doubt any movie fan will recognize these characters from old movies, whether B movies or one of the greatest satires of all time. So now we have a combo in the form of "Monsters vs. Aliens", where a group of abnormal beings have to go up against a maniacal extraterrestrial bent on destroying everything.
I suspect that the tykes who watched this simply thought everything looked cool, while the parents got all the references to other movies (assuming that they knew said movies).
Nothing special, but enjoyable. I wonder how many people realized that the general's name looked like warmonger.
