When 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. The military jumps into action and captures Susan, secreting her away to a covert government compound. She is renamed Ginormica and placed in confinement with a ragtag group of Monsters...
A mixed-to-decent animated comedy that critics found likable but lightweight — entertaining enough for family audiences yet falling well short of Pixar-era benchmarks. The humor and spectacle are present, but reviewers consistently noted a shallowness that keeps it from being more than a passable diversion.
“I suppose kids will like this movie”

“WALL-E had more charm, more soul, more everything. But there's enough merry mischief here to satisfy, even if you're way past puberty.”
