A Masterpiece!

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This film is simply a beautiful masterpiece. It makes you care for the characters, feel sorry for characters. It has style and looks good. Music on point, acting on point, story on point! I've never cried to a movie, I don't get tears in my eyes. This might have gotten a little tear in the corner of my eye. This movie is just, fantastic. Watch it.

In an imaginary world a monster comes to aid a kid to deal with his personal grief and makes him leave childhood behind.This moving story is deployed in a fairish atmosphere, which strongly reminded me of del Toro's "Pan's Labyrinth": a bitter pill to swallow but with a cleansing aftertaste. Rarely such a feeling of catharsis overwhelms the audience. Protagonist is a little child who must cope with his mother's terminal illness. A monster awakes, the two worlds come together and the kiddo is challenged to discover the seemingly horrible, yet human truth inside him. A definite must, just a word of caution, however: prepare some tissues, and make sure you are not barely making it through a depressive phase in life.

In fact both the title and the poster of this film are quite misleading. At first I thought it's just another fairy-tale-like story about a boy and a monster. Than I decided it's something more like mild horror story. However this picture is neither.What you'll see on your screens - is a beautiful and sad story about a kid trying to put up with inevitable. The kid with teared apart heart. The kid fighting and reconciling with his inner monster. The way the story line is presented appealed to me a lot. Half-fairy, half-real world shows us the world and situation through the boy's eyes. And no matter how gloomy, dark or sorrowful the atmosphere and plot could seem the end of the film is happy - the boy managed to accept the loss of his mother and to let her go... which was exactly the thing he tried to do all the film.
