Special Monster (2025)

Wuxie meets Alien - discount edition.

I don't even know where to start. To say the movie felt disconnected feels like an understatement. We had Aliens that are not really Aliens, prehistorical "animals", discount version of Grave Robbers' Chronicles, biologist that was determined to die, bur failed even in that.

Why does this movie start mid scene. I've got whiplash from the opening scene, to only around half way through figured out the "opening scene" are just random scenes from various moments in the movie - and with that you kind of know how it ends.

As for the production - hard to tell if a lot of it was AI generated or just poorly done CGI. Or both. I'm leaning towards poorly done CGI, because I feel like AI generated models would look better. I'd take poor CGI done by person, over AI generated images any day though.

Overall, there truly is nothing to talk about. We had vague treasure, mid team trying to find it, no explanation, no exposition, no proper closure.
