#Monsterdon Well, that was a very by-the-numbers "Them!" rip-off with no real surprises or interesting moments at all.
The bug photography, and compositing was ok, but it never looked amazing.
And they never bothered to build a giant bug, not even for the one trapped in a cage! So we never actually saw the bugs do anything. All the carnage happened off screen. We just see them walking around.

#Monsterdon Even the part where they were going to bomb chicago but decide not to at the last possible moment had no tension. There's so many movies where that's a tense and dramatic moment. Here it was about as exciting as ordering a pizza. They just called the pilot and told him to go home, and he did.
