My second time to watch Monster-in-Law (2005) PG
(source)
Release date: May 13, 2005 (USA)
Original Score: David Newman
Written by: Anya Kochoff
Never say never. Why? Because after watching this film for the first time more than a decade ago said to more than one person, including myself, that I would never watch this again. I enjoyed the film, but I thought once was enough.
I was a bit tired so when my dad announced he was going to go to the "office"(working while having coffee or tea) somewhere near the vicinity, I stayed inside our home office and watched TV. I saw that MONSTER-IN-LAW was about to start. I thought to myself that if I remember the first ten minutes, I'll change the channel. Oh my goodness. Except for Michael Vartan's smile and J Lo walking the dogs, everything seemed new to me, so it was like watching it for the first time.
This was a box office hit even if it was not critically acclaimed because even with crazy things that happened, it's a very enjoyable movie(dramedy/farce/romance).
Would I watch it again?
For now, watching it for the second time would suffice.
