REVIEWS

  • Decider.com: The film has that prevailing quality of its inspirations: absentee adults, and a town full of young people who are both susceptible to being victims and the only force committed enough to truly stop what they’re confronting.
  • Subcultureentertainment.com: Benefits from a spirited performance from Gibson, who delivers above and beyond, and Thames is very good as Noah. Safe, cosy, undemanding thrills for family friendly viewing.
  • Theguardian.com: A bright spot is young star Mason Thames, also excellent in Ethan Hawke horror The Black Phone. He turns in a soulful performance.
  • Moviereelist.com: Monster Summer works very hard to give the audience the hazy, wistful nostalgic past that none of us really remember and it succeeds.
  • Crunchonthis.com: Gibson’s presence definitely gives the film some credibility (and watchability) and he doesn’t simply phone in his role here as you would expect. Even Kevin James and Lorraine Bracco try to breathe life into parts that could have been played by anyone. In the end, you get a decent enough family-friendly horror film with zero bad language and nothing that should give the kids lasting nightmares.
  • Eu.detroitnews.com: There's a bit of a "Stranger Things" current running through "Monster Summer," a spooky-enough piece of gateway horror which unfolds in the era when kids rode their bikes until the streetlights came on and entertained themselves with tall tales about their neighbors. "Monster Summer" captures a wholesome sense of wonder, and it depicts that time in life between childhood and adulthood when the world is both too big and too small at the same time.
  • Rogerebert.com: We're talking purestrain nostalgia for the light-hearted kids' films of the ’80s, whether they be Stephen King adaptations or Spielberg productions like “The Goonies.” “Monster Summer,” the micro-budgeted but big-hearted adventure from child-actor-turned-director David Henrie.
  • Fandomwire.com:  While the new adventure horror film Monster Summer is an homage to Goosebumps and Stranger Things, it targets a younger demographic and offers good, frightening family fun!
  • Variety.com: A combination of professional polish and a deft serious-though-not-too-serious tone.
