This movie blew me away. Visually stunning with a great story to follow it. Yeah, it did need more monsters, and more on the mystical side. To do that though you'd have to either cut out big portions of the war plot (which I wouldn't do since it was written so well, and yet so concise) or extend the movie another hour which I honestly wouldn't have minded. I didn't hate the ending, it was creative but maybe a little rushed. I think it's going to frustrate a lot of people because it's very open ended in the sense that it will make a lot of people ask "well was it real? or was it all her imagination?"

That monster with the eye-hands had guru written all over it when I first saw a screen shot of it. Ususally something like that which draws so much attention to the eyes has some sort of "all-seeing" connotation to it. But a slumbering baby eating monster..... no way do I ever argue with that. The visuals in that scene were out of fucking control.
