A Monster Calls

I watched the movie A Monster Calls, and highly recommend giving it a watch. It is adapted from a book by the same name, and in my opinion is a very faithful adaptation. The story is deeply impactful, and is told wonderfully. It hits its emotional beats purposefully and effectively. Along with it’s story the film has very impressive visuals, using several different artistic mediums. The film uses it’s visual medium to capture and even enhance it’s source material. Despite it’s young protagonist the movie tackles darker themes with maturity and depth. It is a valuable watch for people of all ages, offering knowledge for people young and old.
