    • 2017 January 12, Jesse Hassenger, “A Literal Monster Truck is Far from the Stupidest Thing about Monster Trucks”, in The A.V. Club[1]:
      Eventually, Monster Trucks sends its heroes racing against an evil corporation, on a mission to save Creech, his family, and the environment in general (which makes Creech’s appetite for sweet, sweet oil an especially puzzling detail) and to prove that car chases in kids’ movies can still proceed with the casual disregard for human life that adult audiences demand.
