    Storyline

    Edit
    Gloria (Anne Hathaway) is an out-of-work girl who, after getting kicked out of her apartment by her boyfriend, is forced to leave her life in New York and move back to her hometown. When news reports surface that a giant creature is destroying Seoul, South Korea, Gloria gradually comes to the realization that she is somehow connected to this far-off phenomenon. As events begin to spin out of control, Gloria must determine why her seemingly insignificant existence has such a colossal effect on the fate of the world.

    • Quotes

      Gloria: [throws the bar keys towards Oscar] Here! There are your keys; I'm not coming back to your shitty bar!

      Oscar: [picking up the keys] Yeah you are.

      Gloria: [panting] Oh yeah?

      Oscar: Yeah.

      [Throws the keys at Gloria with enough force to hurt her]

      Gloria: [holding her stomach in pain] Ow!

      Oscar: [calmly] You're gonna keep working at the bar, or I'm gonna come back here tomorrow, and destroy an entire neighborhood.

      Gloria: [through her teeth, bringing her face close to Oscar's] Then I'll come back and I'll kick your fucking ass!

      Oscar: [still calm] No you won't. I'm done being Mr. Nice Guy.

      [Knocks her to the ground. Gloria grunts in pain as she hits the ground hard]

      Oscar: [leans down, calm] see you at work?

      [Gloria looks up at him speechless]

      Oscar: I'll see you at work.

    This is a love-it or hate-it movie.
    This is a love-it or hate-it movie. If you were looking for a RomCom or Kaiju movie, you may be in the hate-it camp. If, however, you want the clever outworking of a dark metaphor presenting itself as a mystery, you may have found a film you can appreciate. That might, also, have been the draw for the cast. Unusual roles for all the actors, performed well. Anne Hathaway held our attention. In terms of storytelling, there were times when the metaphor and the mystery collided with each other and the audience may be left (ironically) scratching their heads, trying to fit the pieces together. With that said, I am giving this film a 7 (clever) out of 10. {A Dark Metaphor}
