Colossal is a wildly original take on monster movies. Gloria (Anne Hathaway), a struggling alcoholic, returns to her hometown after her life in New York falls apart. But things get bizarre when she discovers she has a psychic connection to a giant kaiju that’s mysteriously wreaking havoc on Seoul, South Korea. Yep, that’s the premise.

Colossal is a strange but rewarding watch—deeply human and absurdly inventive. It’s not your usual monster movie, and that’s the point. Think Godzilla meets Eternal Sunshine with a dash of indie awkwardness. If you’re into quirky films with big ideas and even bigger monsters (literally and metaphorically), this one’s worth your time.
