Monstrous (2022)

Review by barnwal-usa

Monstrous

1/10

Time waste movie

Movie tried to depict lord Buddha negatively.. Probably inspired by some rice bag convert to Christianity who wanted to show lord Buddha in negative light. That's how Christianity operates.. The story itself is ridiculous, acting is dull and doesn't make any sense. Randomly making stories without notification or logic isn't a good watch.

However, the show's decision to depict a Buddhist statue as a vessel for malevolence raises significant concerns regarding cultural respect and sensitivity. This choice not only oversimplifies but potentially misrepresents the profound and respectful place Buddhist symbols hold in many people's lives. The premise, while intriguing, leans heavily into clichés and sensationalism at the expense of depth and nuance. The portrayal of religious artifacts as containers of evil is a trope that has been explored in various forms of media, but it requires a delicate balance to avoid cultural insensitivity. Unfortunately, this misses the mark, offering a narrative that can be perceived as disrespectful to those who hold these symbols dear.
