Monsters: Dark Continent Ratings & Reviews
The Film Stage
Amanda Waltz
Deprived of sympathetic characters, thrills, and Edwards' skilled touch, the film makes for a disappointing follow-up to some impressive sci-fi cinema.
La Movie Boeuf
David N. Butterworth
Monsters are few and far between, and Dark Continent was an offensive name given to Africa by 19th century Europeans, so why exactly this film is called "Monsters: Dark Continent" is anyone's guess.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
John Beifuss
The evidence suggests director Tom Green is more a fan of Kathryn Bigelow and Terrence Malick than of Ray Harryhausen; that's not a bad thing, unless your Bigelow-influenced monster movie is pretentious and dreary.
About.com
Mark H. Harris
The CGI effects are sensational, teaming with the beautiful, landscape-rich cinematography to create some stunning imagery. It's a shame it feels underutilized with this script full of war clichés and unsympathetic characters.
Los Angeles Times
Martin Tsai
Although Edwards is onboard for the new "Monsters: Dark Continent" as an executive producer, the sequel bears no resemblance to his original, thematically or stylistically.
Movie Mezzanine
Charles Bramesco
...the film turns into something along the lines of American Alien-Sniper, but without the endlessly arguable ethical ambiguity.
Examiner.com
Travis Hopson
Actually has more in common with a film like Jarhead, and that's not a compliment
AV Club
Katie Rife
Plays like a dorm-room answer to modern war films, complete with the constant profanity and masculine hysterics that pass for impact in an immature script.
Village Voice
Rob Staeger
It's taxing to watch, and Green moves between scenes with Malick-inspired ellipses, frustrating momentum.
The Hollywood Reporter
Leslie Felperin
Whatever the filmmakers' subtextual intentions may be, the film certainly gets stronger and more compelling as it goes on, thanks in part to intense emoting on the part of its cast.
Film School Rejects
Emily Estep
There are far better alien movies, war movies, and war/alien movies than Dark Continent, which never hits the marks of its 2010 predecessor.
We Got This Covered
Isaac Feldberg
A crushing disappointment that's more war drama than monster movie, inexplicably distancing its main attractions from the narrative and letting dull, derivative characters spew even duller, more derivative clichés in place of any discernible story.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
A wildly unpleasant and uneven picture, working to diminish the pieces of this cinematic universe, not expand it like a righteous sequel should.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Very much a film of two halves.
The Playlist
Oliver Lyttelton
"Monsters: Dark Continent" is a sour, tedious, and derivative film that doesn't just prove disappointing in its own right, it actively makes us resent the first film retroactively for inspiring it.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Not so much a sequel as another stultifying character drama set in a world overrun by aliens ...
