The egg island is the place where monsters are born, and Molly’s parents have to travel there to wait for their new child to hatch out. But when they leave and forget the girl’s present for his little brother, she decides to take it to him through mountains, canyons, and oceans.
The colors in Molly Monster are loud, but happily loud: they are half way between the crayon scratches a kid makes on his birthday, and a candy wrap testing. It’s ony logical: this is a cheerful film for kids, filled with anxieties (Molly is going to have a baby brother!) and an honest will to play (there’s a reason everything takes place in Monsterland). The film plays, first, with Molly: her mom and dad forgot their present for her baby brother, and now she has to go to the island where monsters are born in order to take it. The result is a kindly absurd and knotty journey. But the film also plays with the images: by using the simple style from the original German TV show, it comes closer to a simply-drawn comic book. In all its charm, Molly Monster is a perfect afternoon film snack: warm and unique. JMD
