  • reminds me of Crash

  • One of the more... eloquent, movies Ive seen in quite a while. Rather low key, with a simple storyline to follow, but instead of those facts holding it back or detracting from the experience, the movie used what it represented to its advantage in an almost classy way.

    Upon reaching the spectacle of the two aliens followed by the abrupt separation of the love interest culminate with this score and the credits, I knew the Movie Industry still has some belated gems to offer.

  • We are the monsters.

  • That Awesome Song

  • best movie i have seen this year ! and this song chills bones !

  • Wow, had a great Sunday night in watching Monsters, and realised at the end it was the music that was quietly making the film. LOVED the scene at the end with the two Monsters, and the score just made it all that bit more poignant.

    Amazing effort for one guy with a small budget, really captured the road movie thru Mexico feel and the budding romance between the two leads.

    Low key sci-fi that sneaks up on you and leaves you wishing they HADN'T gone back with the soldiers in the end. Brilliant.

  • Love this piece, totally captures the tone of the film, the last scene especially.

  • Wow! What a mysterious song... and yet so beautiful! I love it, and it goes great with the movie.... I think it's great how the movie kind of slaps people in the face and tells them "look at the world, and then look at yourself"... really intriguing I think. :)

    Nice job Jon!!! Incredible!!

  • @UnforgivedSpartan whats the meassage ?

  • Jon Hopkins is amazing!! how can anybody have such beautiful musical talents??? 5 starz Jon nice job (:

  • I like how the ideas of this film are "years after most other monster movies end, when people aren't running and screaming, but life is going on" and "where a giant, dead sea monster is considered completely normal". Also, this film always makes me feel sad about how we act to those creatures and the real "monsters" of the film.

  • In the end my my heart was almost more in the "visitor´s" site. Who were the real monsters? One great thing about this movie was a melanchlic feeling, that world has slowly but surely changed.

  • I admit the director guy did very very well on a tiny budget, but I thought it was terribly flawed how the two characters could just walk on through from the "quarantine zone" into the US. And what was so profound about the ending? Seeing to Octoaliens in love? I didn't like the way it just suddenly ended, I think it would have been better and more realistic if the army guys shot them and burnt their bodies.

  • @tim3854 lol that'd be a bit extreme

  • One of my favorites of 2010, if not, one of my favorites of all time.

  • This tune is amazing!

  • 1 person is scared of monsters

  • Two of my favourite recent scifi films, Sunshine and Monsters, are both typfied by extraordinary and beautiful soundtracks.

  • @UnforgivedSpartan what was the message. i liked the movie a lot!

  • I absolutely loved the bookend to this movie. Brilliantly subtle.

  • @UnforgivedSpartan some people dont get the message... i get it.. and i love the movie!!

  • The soundtrack for this movie changed my life.

  • @UnforgivedSpartan i think many people believe that it's a movie about stupid alien spicies trying to kill people! that was my first impression! I don't like this kind of movies! but this one has nothing to do with that! that's why I also believe that has nothing to do with godzilla! it's a movie that metaphorically speaks about people!

  • @ggregy18 So true... Love you comment

  • @UnforgivedSpartan I actually love this movie...and i have great expectations about the upcoming Godzilla movie (Y)

  • 1 person is a monster without ears :P

  • Beautiful movie beautiful music... For a good movie u dont need fansy action scenes and shit like that....

  • I think one of the morals on this film was to express that no one likes being labeled as an outcast or for being persectued for being different. (Sorry to bring up an entirely different film) But it reminds me of district 9 of how they aliens were treated as "monsters" and were harmless. Makes me wonder how we could harm a species because of their weakness, but we forget that we could be the weaker ones afterall...

  • i think both died in the end if u noticed the startin of the movie..

  • @HanTisha Yeah you're right! I checked it. Thank you for this information! :D

  • At first I thought the movie was shit. But it got better and better towards the end, and when this song started playing I fucking cried <3 space-squid love

  • simply magical....

  • @UnforgivedSpartan Yes , exactlly, the only thing basic people want to see is action and violence. This movie on the other hand, has something i never saw in a movie.

    It was really chill, the theme and set-up was so good , i don't know but it make me feel really lonely.

  • rien à dire, un pure chef d'oeuvre ! J'adore cette musique

  • The two monsters that interact at the end prove that they are capable of co-existing and that the 'big wall' and all the armies will only make that transition more difficult.

    Also at the end when the two are seperated you can hear the man in the humvee singing that Ride of the Valkyries song, just like the soldier in the opening video, on a rewatch you can see andrew dragging samantha away screaming for help before they are abandonned and blown up by the missile fired at the creature. They die

  • Can anyone reply me Apocalypse similar songs or playlist like this or 28 days later style, without lyrics? thanks

  • @rickdeckard30 still dont make any fuckin sense...

  • @oran3e2 Same as the way life started right here on earth dude.

    Comets and rocks brought the simple elemental microscopic proto cells that in time evolved and became capable of complex life on this planet.

    The fact that your mediocre brain can't work the basic mechanics of a theory doesn't make it invalid, specially since you're opinion matters not to anyone.

  • So. the alien octopus's managed somehow to build a space ship, come to earth, lay eggs in the trees and feed off of our electricity..., and the ending???? WTAF, alien octopus sex they kiss and end of?.

  • love it! the music was better than the movie though IMO

  • @SpaQueenRocks That means your insignificant brain couldn't keep up with the ammount of techniques to make this movie visuals and the narrative. Do not ever think your pedestrian and very narrowed perception of the world matters to measure anyone or anything in this world.

    You are as small as you can see pass your nose, and that concerns only to yourself.

  • @asaremperor Fuck off. it's really sad how you decide to pick fights on Youtube, simply because you have NO LIFE. Who are you to assume how i view the world? You don't even know who i am - which is fucking pathetic. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Just because you are OBSESSED with this movie doesn't mean you have to bash on others who don't share the same feelings. My advice: get off the internet, go outside, and get a life!

  • I don't want to go home!

  • @LabbeFabbe they are together in rl life.

  • @nukec Aha that is weird

  • @nukec FOR REAL!?  OMG i knew that chemistry between them in the movie had some realistic touches. AWESOME!

  • me gustó la pelicula, deja un buen mensaje y además hace reflexionar en muchos aspectos! :)

  • How does this movie end? All I want to know is the ending, but I can't find it anywhere

  • @internetzealot some people say she dies? But on my copy all that happens is they get taken away by the army

  • @internetzealot just go and see the beginning :P

  • I thought it was a good movie, it made the humans look like the real monsters, even though the aliens were 100 metres tall. A bit more of a realistic situation, aliens are just living creatures trying to survive, not just trying destroy as the common cliche in most other movies seems to represent.

  • so good <3

  • at the beggining thats what happens when they both get picked up

  • hope there is monsters 2

  • the ending is sad and heart touching!

  • the sequel is announced

  • This song will be played on my funeral. I hope.

  • Excellent movie and music.

    

  • Beautifuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuul

  • Someone knows the name of the song that played on the trailer 1 and 2? Thanks!

  • I loved this movie. Shame that the advertisements sold it as a monster invasion like District 9 or Battle L:A.

    Take it for the Relationship Road Drama set in a scifi atmosphere, and you may love it like i did.

  • @789123456789

    District 9 was never advertised as a monster invasion movie and it never was a monster invasion movie.

  • @789123456789 district 9 was not 'monsters invading' it was stranded aliens that monsters (the humans) broke in the ship and treated them like shit for weapons. humans are the monsters.

  • @789123456789 Battle: LA I understand, but did you even watch District 9? The so-called "monster invasion" in that movie was a few thousand aliens living in a slum and being illegally tested on. Not much of a monster invasion, IMO.

  • @udaho456 Well, ok but District 9 still had a lot more action. In fact i find it more exciting than Battle LA.

  • @789123456789 Okay, now THAT'S true. I just thought you thought it was more like a tits and explosion movie like Battle LA. In my view, it's sort of like Monsters if Monsters decided to have a few more suspense scenes. Not better or worse, just a wee bit different.

  • tbh the music was the best thing about this film i was verry disapointed with it

  • A very deep and touching film.

  • loved it.

  • @UnforgivedSpartan No just the plot had no backstory and the character couldnt act upon their backstorys.

  • @UnforgivedSpartan Script was poor. That doesnt cost millions to make, a cheap film can be good aswell.

  • This movie was god damn awful in every aspect.

  • Comment removed

  • One of the best 3 minutes in my life ;)

  • Amazing movie, I was floored! Beautiful ending as well.

  • great music, such an underrated movie. Let it be.

  • @1231Samb we don't give a shit of what's true, just don't tell the fucking ending in comments moron.

    Would you like to be spoiled before watching a movie ? NO dumb

  • @1231Samb are you fuking dumb ? Would you like to be spoiled when reading comments ? People who are telling the ending in comments are fucking assholes.

    BTW, they don't officialy die. We only see the guy crying over the girl. Maybe she's just unconscious, maybe she's dead. But he guy is still alive, we can see him carrying the girl in the last image of the footage caught by the army

  • beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • its a shame they die at the end you can see there bodies on the floor next to the soldier screaming for help. very good film and amazing music!

  • @Kezlarful lol wtf are you talking about ahah you're a shame lolll it's not even the true ending people, don't listen to that weirdo who wants attention

  • With the landing of the probe these new lifeforms started to pop up everywhere. They are neutral to us as the men in the jungle stated, we dont mess with them they dont mess with us. Sadly, the US Ego (We Save Everyone) got in the way and made it a living hell for both sides. I like this movie because it displays US's way of thinking...we invade other countries and then run away and leave nothing but ruin behind us.

  • I develop a shiver each time I listen to this track. It travels down my back and then takes me into another place, where I feel comfortable and at peace.

  • had the style of D-13 and cloverfield, but way less intense, it was very relaxing... i would say its a story of falling in love, really amazing movie. i didn't watch it expecting action or thrill, because it doesnt have those. but i cant wonder.. did the girl die? because i know the beginning of the movie was the ending...

  • I didnt understand it.

    So are the aliens good?

    why did they land on earth then?

  • 1 person shot at the creatures and got killed.

  • This movie exceeded my expectations. I'm so glad it was not just another exploitation move. It was really beautiful.

  • Jon Hopkins was the reason why I watched this film, and I wasn't disappointed.

  • This song is so emotional. It is done in such a subtle way it leaves this imprint in your mind. Gets your emotions flowing and in a way leaves you kind of empty and dreamy. It is phenomenal. Lots of people don't appreciate the film but it ranks as one of my favourite all time films.

  • @swntrancex i like your description of the song...

  • beautiful music. looking forward to seeing this film sometime :)

  • epic. I fell in love with a girl to this song.

  • this track is called MONSTERS THEME not "Monsters Ending Song"

  • Great film, not what I expected but I was pleasantly surprised by it. Such a beautiful ending to an amazing film. The last words of that film are still stuck in my head.

  • The ending was pure art. No other words could possibly describe it.

  • love love love love an im not even gay i jus love

  • damn, i have heard this 10 times in a row now without even noticing pressing replay o_O

  • love this real deep, captures mood of the fil perfectly

  • Took a while to find this song, but well worth it. Heard some of his stuff before on radio, but didnt know he made this soundtrack, so surreal.

  • When I watched this movie and I saw the two creatures coming at the gas station, I thought the Army was going to shoot them. Instead they got to silently greet each other before going on their way. Beautiful song & movie.

  • Great movie! Like someone said, perfect mix of drama, sci-fi, action and love story. It was produced with only 15000 bugs as budget and looks brilliant not like some million dollar garbage films from hollywood...

  • i would kill to have this on vinyl.... hauntingly beautiful.

  • incredible soundtrack ,i have shivers on my spine :P

  • Loved the ending when the split up...but wait sooo do they stay together or what kinda confusing..

  • @darkside2k7 SPOLIER... I'll try not to spoil it for others, but remember the opening sequence? Pretty much that explains what happens next after the gas station. But it was an interesting way to end a film.

  • @himynamesryan OOOHH...makes much more sense now, so basically...they die :|

  • Amazing song...

  • Amazing soundtrack, and such a good film, not what you expect

  • great fucking movie.. perfect blend of romance action drama and sci fi. hope to make my life this beautiful

  • Leave it alone america, and it won't fight back...

  • @IIETMII

    Tell that to the little girl and her mother the aliens killed.

  • @IIETMII so why did the aliens come to earth then?

  • @Caram3lLov33 They were brought back by accident by a probe sent out to retrieve samples from the oceans of Europa.

  • @QuietThought thanks :)

    Its such an interesting concept and makes you really think differently.

  • @Caram3lLov33 The aliens were brought back by accident by a probe sent out to retrieve samples from the oceans of Europa. They aren't good or evil, they probably aren't fully sentient. They're just here, adapting, breeding, getting along. And we aren't doing a very good job of dealing with them.

  • @IIETMII That may hold true in movies, but in reality? all throughout history people left people alone and still got conquered, slaughtered, raped and pillaged, Humans will never be at peace, thats fantasy.

  • @IIETMII You do realize that a society could never coexist with gigantic roaming creatures that KILL people, even if unintentional. When they migrate and interfere with civilization, they have to be put down or thinned out. It's the same for any wild animal.

  • @IIETMII  Like the movie!!

  • love this movie!!!!

  • amazing film and this incredible soundtrack makes it a masterpiece!!!

  • love the song it really goes with the film

  • Incredibly beautiful, I'm speechless! :X

  • Way more than awesome!!!!! movie and these sounds are just Out of focus. Beautiful

  • Awesome. I really dug how at the end of the movie the monsters mated by the gas station, and inspired the humans to follow suit!

  • @quesondriac Right and the same monsters then go ape on the convoy killing the girl and presumably everyone else there when the airstrike occurred.

  • the full soundtrack will be released on the 29th of november

  • @bejatuuu

    Do you have the link to it ? :)
