"Melissa Barrera's Unlikely Romance with a Monstrous Twist: A 'Your Monster' Review"

TL;DR Summary
"Your Monster" is a metaphor-heavy movie about a young actor, Laura Franco, whose Broadway dreams are derailed by a cancer diagnosis, leading her to discover inner strength with the help of a beastly creature. The film, directed by Caroline Lindy, is criticized for its heavy-handed empowerment tale and the lead actor's performance. Despite attempts at humor and empowerment, the movie falls short in delivering a satisfying and engaging narrative.
