A visually spectacular drama from director J.A. Bayona (“The Impossible”). 12-year-old Conor ( Lewis MacDougall ), dealing with his mother’s ( Felicity Jones ) illness, a less-than-sympathetic grandmother ( Sigourney Weaver ), and bullying classmates, finds a most unlikely ally when a Monster appears at his bedroom window. Ancient, wild, and relentless, the Monster guides Conor on a journey of courage, faith, and truth. Toby Kebbell plays Conor’s father, and Liam Neeson stars in performance-capture and voiceover as the nocturnally visiting Monster of the title. Director: J.A. Bayona (“The Impossible,” “The Orphanage”) Writer: Patrick Ness, based on upon the novel written by Patrick Ness from an original idea by Siobhan Dowd Cast: Sigourney Weaver, Felicity Jones, Toby Kebbell, Lewis MacDougall, and Liam Neeson Please Leave A Comment-
