Join Katsuma, Poppet, Mr. Snoodle, and the other Moshi Monters in an action-packed, song-filled race against time! Together they must stop evil Dr. Strangeglove and his incompetent Glump sidekick Fishlips from pulverising the recently discovered Great Moshling Egg.
For the very young, the surreal, sweet-toothed pleasures will be captivating. For the older audience member, it may be the longest 81 minutes they've ever spent.
Moshi Monsters is an online, interactive game that allows children to own their own pet monsters. This opportunistic movie spin-off will make no sense at all to most adult audiences and may well leave the kids frustrated as well.
I enjoyed the film because like the games, it had an imaginative mystery to solve and the same cool style of drawing.
If you are not a fan of the Moshi Monsters online virtual-reality game, you may find this animated movie spinoff an incredibly annoying and baffling bore.
I can speak only to the parents and guardians of the target audience, who have my deepest sympathies.
