For some reason,scientists,military guys and police standing around a room making up lies about a monster is a science fiction staple.I will never understand or accept that. This movie does just that and sprinkles in all the other clichés and tops it off with terrible acting. And of course the title isn't even close to accurate.There's several monsters and they barely challenge one town. At one point the authorities decide the monsters will move from the ocean into the canal,based on absolutely nothing.The police complain,saying "There's 700 miles of canal bank in this county". Really?700 miles in one county? At least they provided some chuckles by constantly having the military and police end radio talk with things like "I'll call you later" and "OK,Bye". You'd have a tough time finding a worse movie.
