What does this mean?
"this monorail is completely useless, its a just a people mover"
Isn't this what all public transport does?

Light rail and people mover are quite different.
This monorail won't be connected to Dubai's initial 2 Metro lines.
It's capacity is no more than 5,000ppd/h.
It only serves hotels and a residential area, not connecting any residents with the central business district or any office developments in the city. I doubt many Dubai residents have the need to take a monorail to a hotel.
