Decent Hidden Meaning in Monster House!



Monster House was a cute movie with some interesting hidden meaning.  The first hidden meaning was that things are not always what they seem. The Monster House was not as one dimensional as it appeared. The second hidden meaning was that good and evil are not just black and white.  The evil character in the house was shown to have at least some humanity (even though she was a house!)   It is heartening to see kids movies with at least some such redeeming hidden meaning that even kids can pick up on!  It has been a long time since the heydey of the old great Disney animation materpieces with rich overt and subtle meaning that shaped us all!   Nowadays most of the kids movies are just flat when it comes to cool hidden meanings.  Monster House is the exception! ( Side note.......I saw Monster House in "Read-D" with the 3D glasses and the 3D effect is incredible, the best one I have seen over the years!)

I agree. It was a really good movie.

Also the 3-D was really good, unlike some crappy 3-D movies I've seen in the past. *cough*spykids3D*cough*
