A bigger audience deserves to give Colossal a chance, as it is not just quirky and interesting but it also delights with its visual and aural creativity. Anne Hathaway almost charms as the out-of-work party girl who appears to be linked psychically to a monster that repeatedly appears in Seoul, and her performance gets stronger as her character gets more complex later in the film, and Dan Stevens again does good work as the comparatively uptight boyfriend, but the real standout turn here is from Jason Sudeikis as the bar-owning old school pal which is wonderfully clear, effective and delivers the developing character well. Scenarios develop and unfold in interesting ways, leading to a fairly audacious and satisfying ending. In spite of its title, Colossal is quite a small, intimate movie that delivers very satisfyingly on all counts.
