A Monster Calls is a 2016 dark fantasy drama film directed by J. A. Bayona and written by Patrick Ness, based on his novel of the same name. The film stars Sigourney Weaver, Felicity Jones, Toby Kebbell, Lewis MacDougall, and Liam Neeson, and tells the story of Conor (MacDougal), a child whose mother (Jones) is terminally ill; one night, he is visited by a giant tree-like monster (Neeson), who states that he will come back and tell him three stories.

A Monster Calls premiered on September 10, 2016, at the 2016 Toronto International Film Festival. It was then released in Spain on October 7, 2016, and in the United Kingdom on January 1, 2017. In the United States, the film began a limited release in on December 23, 2016, followed by a wide release on January 6, 2017. It received praise for its themes, directing, performances and visual effects, although the writing was considered by some as overly dark. The film was a domestic disappointment grossing just $3.7 million, and has grossed $43 million worldwide.[4]

Plot

Young Conor O'Malley must face his mother's terminal cancer, his strict grandmother, his estranged father, and his school bully, Harry. One night at 12:07 a.m., Conor encounters the tree-like Monster, who tells Conor it has come to relate three true stories, after which Conor will tell the Monster his own story, the truth behind his nightmare. They continue to meet at 12:07 to tell the stories.

First story

An old king who has lost his entire family, save a young grandson, remarries a beautiful young woman. He dies before the prince comes of age, and many believe she poisoned the king. Not wanting to hand the kingdom over to the prince in a year, she plots to marry the prince and remain queen. The prince runs away with a farm girl he loves. They stop and sleep under a yew tree (the Monster), but in the morning he finds the young woman murdered. The prince tells the villagers that the queen, a witch, must have done it, and they rally to overthrow her. The monster awakes and joins the mob. Before the commoners can reach the queen, the Monster carries her away to a far-off land where she lives out the rest of her life in peace. Though she was indeed a witch, she did not kill the young woman or the king. The prince had murdered the young woman in order to inspire his people to back him into overthrowing the queen.

Second story

An apothecary follows old traditions and beliefs, using herbs and brews to cure ailments. His business becomes less popular as a local parson tells his congregation not to accept the apothecary's old ways. When the parson's two daughters become sick, the parson asks the apothecary to save their lives after all other resources are exhausted. When the apothecary asks why he should help a man who has turned people away from his skills and denied him the yew tree, his best source of healing ingredients, the parson promises to give him the tree and deliver the parishioners to him as customers. Yet the apothecary says that he cannot help, and the girls die. The Monster awakens from the yew tree to destroy the parson's house and raze it to the ground as punishment.

While the apothecary was a greedy man, he was a healer and would have saved lives, including the girls', if the parson had allowed him his way of life. The parson was a man of belief, but was willing to discard his beliefs when they were in the way. The healing traditions followed by the apothecary require belief in order to work; without the parson's, the apothecary was unable to treat the two girls. Belief is half the cure.

Third story

A man was invisible because no one ever saw him. Tired of this, he summoned the Monster to ensure people would take notice.

Fourth story

Conor must confront his nightmare to tell the fourth story. His mother has been pulled to the edge of a cliff by a sudden collapse of the ground, and Conor must hold her hand to save her from falling. Eventually, his grip fails and his mother falls. The Monster forces Conor to confess the truth: Conor loosened his grip on purpose. While he could have held on longer, he let go in order to stop the pain of having to hold on. Conor ultimately understands the complexities of human beings, and that though he doesn't want his mother to die, he understands it is inevitable and something he must accept, and that he wants the experience to be over.

After this, Connor returns, with the Monster by his side, to comfort his mother one last time, and she dies at 12:07. He returns home with his grandmother, who becomes caring towards him and gives Conor a room of his own, a room that used to be his mother's. In the room he finds his mother's old art book, which depicts the characters of the stories that have been told by the Monster, and a drawing of his mother as a child with the Monster.

  • Toby Kebbell as Mr. O'Malley, Conor's father who is divorced from Lizzie and now lives in the United States.
  • Liam Neeson as the "Monster" (voice and motion capture), a giant humanoid yew tree. Tom Holland, who worked with Bayona on The Impossible, served as the stand-in for the Monster during one day of production.[5]

Production

Focus Features bought the rights to the book in March 2014.[6] Patrick Ness, the book's author, served as the film's screenwriter, with J. A. Bayona hired as director.[7] On April 23, 2014, Felicity Jones joined the film to play the boy's mother.[8] On May 8, Liam Neeson was cast to voice the Monster,[9] and on August 18, Sigourney Weaver joined to play the boy's grandmother.[10] On August 19, Toby Kebbell was also cast in the film.[11] On September 3, author Ness tweeted that Lewis MacDougall had been set for the lead role in the film.[12] On September 30, Geraldine Chaplin joined the cast.[13]

Filming

Principal photography began on September 30, 2014,[14] in Spain and Britain.[13][15] On October 9, the filming began on location in Preston, Lancashire, Rivington Pike (Chorley/Horwich), Blackpool Pleasure Beech and Marsden Denshaw.[16]

Liam Neeson, who voices the titular tree creature, was not on set throughout the shooting process, and completed his motion-capture performance during a two-week period beforehand, with MacDougall in the room.[17]

Release

Originally scheduled for an October 2016 release,[18][19] the film was delayed in order to avoid competition from Jack Reacher: Never Go Back, Boo! A Madea Halloween, Ouija: Origin of Evil, and Keeping Up with the Joneses.[citation needed] It was re-scheduled for a limited roll out on December 23, 2016, followed by a wide release on January 6, 2017.[20] The film was released in the United Kingdom on January 1, 2017, by Entertainment One and Lionsgate,[21] and in India on January 6, 2017, by B4U Relativity.[22]

Reception

Box office

A Monster Calls grossed $3.7 million in the United States and Canada and $38 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $41.8 million, against a production budget of $43 million.[4]

In North America, the film had its wide release alongside the opening of Underworld: Blood Wars and the wide expansions of Hidden Figures and Lion, and was initially expected to gross around $10 million from 1,523 theaters over the weekend.[23] However, after making just $659,000 on its first day, weekend projections were lowered to $2 million, which it ended up grossing, finishing 13th at the box office.[24] In its second weekend of wide release it grossed $537,262 (a drop of 74.2%) and in its third week made just $19,080 (a drop of 96.4%) after being pulled from all but 42 theaters, one of the biggest third week theater drops in history.[25][26]

Critical response

The aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes gives the film an approval rating of 87% based on 215 reviews and an average rating of 7.6/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "A Monster Calls deftly balances dark themes and fantastical elements to deliver an engrossing and uncommonly moving entry in the crowded coming-of-age genre".[27] At Metacritic, the film has an average score of 76 out of 100 based on 40 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[28] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.[29]
