      "Pacific Rim" showed that you can have big monsters fighting giant robots and have it be an amazing movie (i thought is was going to be stupid- i was very wrong)..."Godzillz x Kong", on the other hand, looks like a 10 year old wrote and shot it (Godzilla with "pink" spikes, and looking like he could run a marathon?...)...still think, "King of the Monsters" is the best of the franchise (the visual effects/creature design are worth the price of admission alone)...

    Of course if you go into a movie expecting a masterpiece in film making you're going to hate it. These movies are for ppl who just want to watch giant monsters beat each other up. My problem with these types of movies is when they have ppl in them. For some reason Hollywood doesn't understand that we don't want humans in our monster movies. If you're going to have them, use them sparingly.

    "Monsters smashing each other, buildings toppling." Thats what the Monsterverse fans want in these movies Jay, they want to see their fan favorite monsters fight other monsters around the world. They want to see famous buildings get destroyed, More importantly, what the fans really want is chaos, i mean if you are not a fan then why bother watching the movie or giving the movie a two star review? Plus i find this movie is better than The Meg 2.

      She was asked to the film for a purpose, and she gives her honest review, but with that Saud, she knew it wasn't for her, and brought someone on to even that out.
      Every movie isn't for everyone. For that, we need tk be real and honest and say hey I hated it lol, but I know people who loved it as well. People not liking a movie doesn't make it bad at all, it means it's not for your ideals and entertainment . There are movies that absolutely suck all around, but this isn't one of those. I am not a fan of these films, but damn my sons love it, my wife loves them all, and that's honest. Ask me, I'll probably say the same as Jay, but ask my family they'd go with him. It's all about the fans and having the intelligence to knkw we all have what we like, and know if we don't like it , don't take it from others.

    I am not into Godzilla or Kong films either. However, the one exception to this was the recent phenomenal film "Godzilla Minus One". That film did an excellent job of telling a compelling human story, along with showing a lot of well choreographed bombastic action. The American made Godzilla films have human character you could care less about. The Japanese made "Godzilla Minus Zero" really had a lot of heart.

    As a godzilla fan I'd say this movie is definitely more for the fans and probably not for other audiences. In my honest opinion this movie was definitely a 8-9/10. Just kinda sad that the Tiamat fight scene was so short and easy as opposed to how they showed the fight in the comic. 😭 but overall the movie was definitely what fans were asking for a lot. More monster scenes, less human intervention, more monster fights, new monsters, and more lore reveal. Also it was nice of them to bring back mothra with more on screen moments and a actual role. The references with the iwi tribe ppl being able to talk telepathically like the original films with other tribes was a very subtle and a great detail (something only og fans would know).

    Being a die hard life long Godzilla fan myself, I too give it an 8/10 but only because Rodan and Ghidorah didn't make a comeback the way they would have back during the Showa Era movies (1954-1983) Because the thing is, and I say this respectfully, you gotta be a Godzilla fan in order to get how and why the plot of GXK panned out the way it did. Godzilla and Kong have been rivals at each other's throats since 1962, and only in GVK did they really grow mutual respect for each other after obliterating Mechagodzilla. Mind you, I acknowledge that this is a Legendary Pictures Godzilla movie, not Studio Toho, (Studio Toho being infinitely better) as it would be comparing apples and oranges trying to compare LP to ST, but over all, GXK was a fantastic movie as they did a pretty good job at recapturing the overall energy of the monsters vs monsters beating the shit out of each other as well as the monsters' comedic sides like what we see in the old films. That's my take, and of course, to each their own. Lol.

    Sorry this film didn’t do it for you Jay. Least you gave it a shot. Yeah, there’s two sides to the Gojira franchise: the more serious, grounded entries like the original 54 film and more recently Minus One, and of course the more lighthearted, goofier entries which this clearly tried to emulate. I personally do like both sides of it but I will say execution definitely matters in the end.

    I had just seen Godzilla Minus One right before I saw the trailer for this and it was kind of embarrassing how ridiculous this was. The shock of coming out of such a serious and dark Godzilla film to the goofiest trailer possible was rough. Godzilla movies definitely had a silly kids' movie phase so I guess this fits the same way those did.

      Godzilla isn't a one size fits all character. The 1953 movie was serious. The movies in the 60s and 70s were like Saturday morning cartoons. Then the pendulum swung to a more serious tone in the 80s and 90s. I like all versions except the 1998 Iguana Godzilla.

      you nailed it. From the early 60s until 1985, we had PLENTY of goofy Godzilla. I REALLY am not on board for seeing more of it that. As a kid, sure it's fun, but as an adult...the concept of Godzilla make SO much more sense and is SO much more interesting than just some monster stomping around. The same thing happened to Jurassic Park--once they started making action movies out of it, it killed what made the concept so good. It needed to stay sci-fi/horror.

Adrian gives more Godzilla and Kong fans a great take as a fellow fan and you give us your honest opinion. You don’t laugh at us or mock us, so if any more haters show up, know that they just can’t handle the truth, which is what you’re sharing.

    For non-Godzilla fans, I would recommend the original 1955 Gojira with subtitles, not its English dub counterpart. And Godzilla Minus One. Those are the best Godzilla movies to introduce people. Sadly Shin Godzilla is particularly made for people who understand the Japanese culture, and thus it's harder to get into. Otherwise, I'd add that to the list.

By the time the lazy screenwriting auto-magically placed a convenient cyber-arm with healing power that just so happened to be nearby, and just so happened to perfectly fit over the part of Kong’s arm that just so happened to be injured, I was done and wishing I could watch _Pacific Rim_ instead.

    I'm a Godzilla fan and I didn't particularly like it either. The villain was disappointing, Evolved Godzilla was kinda pointless, Mothra was kinda wasted in my opinion, and the movie just honestly felt like it wanted to be over. Godzilla vs Kong felt like it was on fast forward to the monster battles, but GXK felt like it was on fast forward the entire movie... Including the monster battles.

    I'm a Godzilla nerd going back to grade school, and it saddens me to say that I haven't really enjoyed any of the MonsterVerse G-movies so far (though I did like Kong: Skull Island and the streaming show Monarch). A big drawback for me in the trailers was the seeming lack of any iconic monsters other than GxK themselves -- I'm of the opinion that even the Japanese films haven't managed to create a truly iconic monster since 1988 or so.
