- 9.0 The Hollywood ReporterDavid Rooney
The most remarkable thing is the ability of the screenwriter-director to turn real elements in a devastating, dark and strictly focused story.
Read - 7.5 IndiewireEric Kohn
The movie not only illustrates the power of modern activism; in its final moments, it becomes such an act itself.
Read - 5.0 The PlaylistJordan Ruimy
Despite its ambitions, Monsters and Men makes its weighty subject matter feels thin and slight.
