REVIEW :

Have you ever imagined that there is a hotel for monsters such as Frankenstain, Big Foot, Zombies, Mummy, Werewolf, etc?

“Even Monsters Need A Vacation”

Yes. There is a hotel which exists in the isolated woodland and owned by Mr. Count Dracula.

Mr. Count Dracula

He built that five-stars hotel far away from human because he wants to build a safe hotel for the monsters that want to take rest from human civilization. We have to pass through a haunting woodland and graveyard to go there.

Mr. Count Dracula and his daughter, Mavis

 Mr. Dracula has a daughter named Mavis. His wife, Martha was killed by human. So, he is very protective to Mavis and he also tries to protect her from human civilization. However, she is very interested in the outside world, especially Hawaii.

On Marvis’s 118^th Birthday, her father wants to celebrate it and he will grant her daughter’s wishes, that is to leave the castle and explore the human civilization. But, that all is only Mr. Dracula’s strategy. He made a plan using zombies that disguised as human to frighten her. He succeed to make Marvis does not want to go there again. But, unexpectedly human visits Hotel Transylvania because of that.

Jonathan arrived at Hotel Transylvania

His named is Jonathan, a brave traveller. He was lured by the zombies to the hotel when he saw something on fire. At the moment he arrived at hotel, he think that there is costume party. Mr.Dracula is very panic when he know that there is human comes to his hotel. He disguises him as a “Johnnystein”

      In this movie, Jonathan and Marvis are falling in love. In the beginning, Mr. Dracula did not accept Jonathan because he is a human. But, in the end of this movie, he accepts him. Mr. Dracula choose his daughter’s happiness.

Although there are some soft frightening scene, I think this 3D movie is entertaining, nice and appropriate for all ages. It has colorful characters, great animation, laughable moments, and has great voice cast. There are also dancing and singing scene. I like the way of Mr. Dracula protecting and making her daughter be happy. It is the movie that very enjoyable for family !

Have a nice trip !
