7/10
Rather unique, actually...

They're not monoliths. They're not monsters.

Now that we got the incorrect title out of the way, let's talk about the movie itself.

I thought it was going to be yet another horror flick, but it turned out a lot different. First of all, the acting in this movie is quite good. Although there is silly dialog at times, in overall I'd say the acting was enjoyable enough.

The music is... classic. If you have watched other black-in-white monster movies, you will feel right at home with this score. Over-dramatic at times, completely unneeded. It adds a certain charm to the film.

Crazy scientific theories AND solutions are also one of the movie's high perks. Don't even try to understand what they are going at in some parts of the movie, because you will only ruin your fun. Just watch and set your brain on zero for just an hour.

The monolith monsters is an enjoyable movie with a few unique twists and a nice, well-paced story. Recommended for any fans of movies of this era. Seven stars out of ten.
