So who is the monster?
After coming back home and reconnecting with Oscar, Gloria’s auto-destructive behavior starts increasing. Along a Giant Kaiju monster appears in North Korea and starts destroying the capital city of Seoul.
But at one point Gloria finds out that she is connected in a way with it. So yes, its a monster with a drinking problem, humanity is really doomed this time. All of this is presented in a very humorous way. Making all this destruction ironic.
The twist goes beyond.
That’s pretty much all the information we have of the movie conspiracy theories have start rising across the internet. Since many blogs, pages and so on have started developing all kind of theories about what does the meaning of the movie is.
