I love any movie where giant monsters are punching buildings or each other, and this one delivered that in spades. And when those fights happen, they godamn deliver. But yeah, the real draw is the titular battle. It's not why I came to the movie, but for the filler between the monster fights, it worked better than politicians talking about the nature of these beasts which is what we sometimes get in these sort of movies, so I'll take it. I didn't mind Millie Bobbie Brown's investigation or the hollow earth journey. As far as the human element? It's toned down just enough from the other films, and what we do have is fine. The fights we do get are absolutely stellar, the destruction is awesome, and the sense of scale they give these beasts is unreal. What about that wooly mammoth thing? He was cool. If anything I would have liked more titans, after they had been established at the end of the last film. We get several showdowns of the two, and even a secret third monster. But does it make for a cool scene of Kong running around with dino-monster things? Yes, yes it does.īottom line, when it comes to Godzilla vs Kong, the film godamn delivers. How are they able to use these spaceship things to do a journey to the center of the earth voyage in the same universe we've established in the previous films? Who knows. It can be dumb, and in terms of world consistency it's pretty wacky. Toning down on the human element just enough, the film gives more-or-less what you want from this type of story.
