Trust Us, Missing This Oddball Monster Movie Would Be a Colossal Mistake

Initially, everything about Colossal seems inexplicably, gratuitously absurd. Or Anne Hathaway being involved with any of the above. Yet, after nearly two hours, the movie manages to sweep you up in its world, and it starts to make a weird kind of sense. And eventually, all the things that seemed unfathomable at first become exactly what makes its message so clear. That's not to say writer/director Nacho Vigalondo's (Timecrimes) latest film is perfect. But considering there's never been a kaiju movie that's an allegory for destructive relationships, it might be downright revolutionary.
