Monster High: La película

Monster high is a line of fashion dolls- why do they look like production gave them 50$ spirit halloween gift cards and they went to town??

Boring plot, bad one liners, acting was less than sublime and full of plot holes.

The songs.. THE SONGS- every scene change had a song. I had to genuinely skip through the songs.

The whole movie was basically:

Person a: i dont fit in!

Person b: me too let me explain this in a song

I honestly really had high hopes for this movie, but now i realize that Monster High was just a cash grab from a big company trying to profit off of an older generations nostalgia.

Ironically, the movie just looked really cheap?

This movie will likely follow me into my nightmares. Might be good for a horror movie marathon I suppose, but other than that a 1/10. Happy halloween..

As a extreme fan of monster high, for years I've watched all the movies and the series they had- I put on this film in hopes of a good recreation only to see a absl bombsite of a film. The characters bare no resemblance at all to the original characters, their personalities anrent even similar in the slightest, and their style? It's absolutely atrocious.

I am disgusted and disappointed. Literally just scroll on TikTok and you will see better recreations than this FUNDED movie. If you think that I am sitting through over a hour of this monstrosity (No pun intended as this film doesn't deserve to even be joked about) then you are deluded.

So so so incredibly disappointing if you know anything about the ORIGINAL monster high. If I could give it a zero and get it removed off every platform, I would.

I'm an OG fan and have an extensive Monster High collection, so I am FULLY invested with this fandom.

I adored this movie, full stop. So many little references to past Monster High movies and dolls - so you can tell the writers did their homework. The sets, atmosphere and overall asthetic are creepy cool. Football with an actual foot? Loved it!

All the songs are bops. End of discussion.

Were some characters altered? Yes. But not a full overhaul like some reviews want you to believe. The characters still have their distinctive traits, but with a more modernized/updated feel. They are all portrayed as actual teenagers in the real world, with relatable insecurities and fears.

All the actors/actresses did such an amazing job with their characters, but Frankie was my absolute favourite in the film. I loved their comedic timing and they are just overall so enjoyable to watch.

My one criticism is that there wasn't enough Ghoulia! Maybe in the sequel she'll have more screen time.

Just give this a chance. It's a wonderful movie with TONS of monster heart and doesn't deserve the hate it's getting. Really hope we get a sequel!

This is pretty fine musical and school story with a teense bit heroic student friends. Not too much as origin but not that far from it.

Characters are very similar, good choice here.

The only but critical minus is origin Clawdeen - why oh why she is half human here?? She is not! Hyde was half human! Wanted concept about humamonstafobia and solving it in one heroic jest - go with the origin person who you can work with! But no. And why no is the reason this movie fails the own choosing concept and fail itself big time. Sorry I want rate it higher for every else good stuff in movie but that only fail ruined it for good.

My daughters and I have watched every Monster High movie since the beginning. They also collected the dolls for years. This school was already inclusive.... That has always been the premise of Monster High.... "Every monster is welcome!"

Every personally was changed. Every story line and character arc was changed!

Clawdeen was part of a pack.... She was a fashionista with a passion for fashion design.... Her little sister, Howleen, which was nonexistent in this movie, was the skater. Her brother Clawd was best friends with Deuce and captain of the football team, also absent from this movie. Let's not forget their older sister the writer.

Draculaura was the cheerful, bubbly center of attention.

Laguna was a swimmer, very sporty. She was a sea monster.

Ghoulia was a zombie and brilliant. She was best friends with Cleo. Cleo is the it girl. On the outside, conceited, rich and self absorbed.... But on the inside, she is generous and has a huge heart.

Abby Dominable was the awkward exchange student.... Who kind of likes Heath Burns.

Deuce was a total surfer dude and so devoted to Cleo. He became fast friends with Gill a fresh water monster.

Jackson Jekyll, the son of Dr Jekyll. He is a brilliant scientist like his dad. He was half human half monster. His monster side was called Holt Hyde. This persona is a DJ!

Frankie was the new kid in school. The story revolves around her. She is the actual narrator of the movies!

The list goes on and on of characters that have been changed or just removed.

It could have been fun to watch these beloved characters come to life as they are. So many story lines, so many new characters to bring in and meet.... This could have been a very long franchise.... But they have chosen to combine characters and change personalities instead.

Very disappointed.

Now, I do not blame the acting. The songs were good and the kids did a good job in selling the personalities that they were told to play. But his could have been so much better.
