Brilliant atmosphere, characters, and unfolding of mystery. I loved the murky, elusive core of the motivations for Jonah and his history, but I would have been satisfied by a more direct insight into his workings. The cat & mouse elements could feel a bit repetitive at times, with the cast endlessly chasing each other, but the advancement of the plot and introduction of new elements kept it engaging. Wonderful! All in all, Monster is incredibly captivating and brutal in it’s switching of directions. The characters have depth, some art lovable, some are villainous, but many have a great shot at redemption that doesn’t feel forced.
