I went into this movie not having even seen a trailer and honestly with the current situation new releases are few and far between I have been watching movies recently that I never would have under normal circumstances.
Although fairly simplistic in it's plot, Monsters of Man was very good for what it intended to be with a good story, good practical effects, those robots looked good, and fairly good acting.
A good action movie with shocking violence, including against women and children, which is almost unheard of, and makes those scenes a bit difficult to watch.
I didn't recognize any of the actors except for Neal McDonough, but I can't say that any of the actors did a bad job.
My only complaint is that there is one scene where you can't tell the robots apart, I won't spoil anything, but not being able to tell them apart takes away from that scene.
Mark Toia had no credits for anything before this, but kudos, I was presently surprised, though it seems he is somewhat a narcissist, placing his name in the credits as Executive Producer twice and as Producer all before crediting the actors, so you basically see his name 5 or so times before the acting credits, all in the opening credits.
