When California girl Susan Murphy is unwittingly clobbered by a meteor full of outer space gunk on her wedding day, she mysteriously grows to 49-feet-11-inches tall. The military jumps into action and Susan is captured and secreted away to a covert government compound. There, she is renamed Ginormica and placed in confinement with a ragtag group of Monsters: the brilliant but insect-headed Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D.; the macho half-ape, half-fish The Missing Link; the gelatinous and indestructible B.O.B.; and the 350-foot grub called Insectosaurus. Their confinement is cut short, however, when a mysterious alien robot lands on Earth and begins storming the country. In a moment of desperation, the President is persuaded to enlist the motley crew of Monsters to combat the Alien Robot and save the world from imminent destruction.

"The script—an affectionate spoof of 1950s sci-fi—is funny, exciting (especially in IMAX 3-D) and has a nice visual texture." -- Sacramento News and Review -Jim Lane

"...there are some clever one-liners and the occasional sight gag, but there are too few of those moments to keep the adults from becoming restless." -- ReelViews -James Berardinelli
