Colossal** (15)  

(Ipswich Film Theatre)                                            

A dipso alcoholic tries to set her life in order when she discovers that she is manifesting as a giant monster terrifying the streets of Seoul.
Quirky monster movie black comedy using Godzilla-like metaphors combined with Forbidden Planet's neat trick of having monsters conjured from the main character's subconscious. Quite cleverly held at the right pitch, without taking itself too seriously, and also authentic in its portrayal of modern relationships today.
