They literally bring the most iconic antagonists from Godzilla franchise just for crash grab and absolutely waste of their potentials.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This somehow did nealy everything better than the other MonsterVerse movies. The Titan fights were way more epic and over the top (although this movie felt way less realisting than the first Godzilla MonsterVerse movie because of that), the characters felt way more likeable as they had way better motives to do what they did in the movie, the CGI was absolutely amazing and made it seem like the Titans featured were actually real and causing all of this destruction and some scenes actually made me cry (especially the one where Dr.Serizawa sacrifices himself by bringing a nuke to Godzilla so he can stop King Gidorah from basically destroying the world).… Expand

In "Aliens vs. Predator" there was still behind Giger's hand and therefore the dark side of anthropology, in "Independence Day" [1996] there was a simple and linear blockbuster signed Emmerich on the unification of the humanity for a common effort against a planetary enemy, here there is an eco-environmentalist story that becomes an eco-terrorist one that becomes a yawning clash of monsters, pardon: between kaijū (in short: a fantasy family movie). The presence of "11" is irrelevant.… Expand

Visuals are great and the monster fights are epic. Story is nearly non-existant at times, then at other times its an exposition overload. The movie really does take itself a bit to seriously most of the time, which is to its detriment. A more tongue in cheek approach would have suited it better. Nothing much to say about the characters, bland and unoriginal. The actors are clearly trying their hardest with a weak script.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. King of the Monsters, for me, is a big letdown from it’s two predecessors in the MonsterVerse and lacks the finesse in the writing, directing and acting that those two movies had and is the only movie to date in the MonsterVerse that I dislike. KotM doesn’t have a great story, something that the characters in the movie actually recognize and act based upon. This entire movie is founded on one character causing a global catastrophe because their plan didn’t go according to plan, meaning the entire movie was avoidable which makes it feel a bit pointless. In other words, the whole premise of the movie is founded in character stupidity, which really hurts the story and development of the plot. In essence, the fates that certain characters have could’ve been avoided and the global catastrophe that happens could’ve been averted. The way that a lot of the characters act based on all of this is actually pretty smart and they do the best they can to get the situation under control. The acting, however, isn’t great and makes some moments and scenes feel really off and awkward. Certain lines feel exaggerated which hurts their delivery in the movie, as though they were said improperly or over acted. The kaiju action, however, is great just as it was in the first two movies, which is one redeeming quality of this movie. Watching the big monsters fight each other is entertaining enough to keep viewers somewhat engaged for the full runtime, but the lack of a cohesive story and plot really hampers the movie from reaching the heights of Godzilla and Skull Island. There are (spoiler alert) a bunch of other big monsters that appear in this movie, but they don’t seem to do too much for the movie and feel like a hugely missed opportunity. Despite how many of them there are, they feel inconsequential to the progress and development of the movie and the focus really seems to be on Godzilla and Ghidorah. I do like that the humans are given the opportunity to get involved in the fight and lend a helping hand, which they actually do in a bigger way in this movie than they did in any other movie in the MonsterVerse at the time this movie came out. I appreciated this a lot as it shows that sometimes, even the big monsters need some help. Humans play a huge role in this movie, giving it a human-centric perspective which is also nice and another redeeming quality of the movie. Unfortunately, these two highlights aren’t enough the save this movie from being a trainwreck compared to the other ones. I don’t like the ending too much, since despite the fact that Godzilla (spoiler alert) comes out victorious, it’s really only because of the help that the humans gave him. This movie doesn’t live up to it’s title since Godzilla got his ass beaten in his first two encounters with Ghidorah and likely wouldn’t have won the third time either without major assistance due to how powerful Ghidorah is. Godzilla feels like a false, or a rigged, king in this movie which makes the end feel unsatisfying and disappointing. Despite some promise and good moments, KotM falters in huge ways and isn’t a great installment in the MonsterVerse.… Expand

My friend is a huge fan of kaiju movies and he showed me the trailer of this movie when it first came out. I was struck in awe. I couldn't believe something so legendary looking was actually going to be made while I live. The poster and promotional materials were also looking so much filled with fantasy. I watched the 2014 Godzilla to watch this. If you've seen my review of that movie, you will know how much I loved it except for the human part. But when I watched this movie, I was very dissatisfied.
The problem that plagues Godzilla: King of the Monsters is the humans. First of all they are talking so much. The whole time all we see is talking, talking and even more talking. First Madison and her mother are talking, then the army is talking, then the eco terrorists are talking. And finally when Godzilla and Kong Ghidorah finally start fighting, then seen cuts to the humans running. Look, I have no problem with humans being shown in Godzilla movies. But it should be like the 2014 movie, where humans are only shown when the monsters are walking and not during the fights.
The human plot of this movie is very pathetic. The eco terrorists had a point and I completely agreed with them, but as it was shown how they are supposed to be the bad guys was not very surprising. I have never understood movies which villify eco-terrorists. Like, why don't they ever explain why they are supposed to be bad? Take a moment, think about valid points and just speak them out. It doesn't have to be "you're the bad guy boo-hoo!". This only makes us feel like the bad guys won.
The CGI, however, is where this movie is an absolute win. I will give it full marks for that. I just love all the fight scenes from it. When Rodan seemed to have killed Mothra I was feeling very bad for her, but seeing how she made a comeback was very surprising. The part where Rodan and King Ghidorah fight the planes was also very cool. I really wanted to show that scene to someone else (sadly I'm the only person who is interested in Monsterverse and those who are interested already watched the movie before me).
Godzilla: King of the Monsters is a movie that completely tested my patience. It was fun, I'm gonna remember all the monster scenes, but I don't think I'm ever gonna have the courage to watch this ever again. Some things are best left in memory, and that's what I'd say about this movie. It's a good thing Godzilla vs Kong removed the bad parts and made what we wanted to see. That's how this franchise is supposed to be, not like this one.… Expand

This film is visually stunning, and it's one of the most Incredible looking films I've seen in a long time. But it's not helped by the fact it's got very little action between scenes of human drama scenes. And the action that is there is pact mostly at the end of the movie. Remember the sequences of the monsters shown in trailers? That was literally all the scenes we got of the monsters. There were no other scenes of the monsters in the film after that. I wish there was more instances in the film where Godzilla was fighting other monsters. Maybe have an arc where he is recruiting other monsters to fight alongside him in the climax, and not just Mothra.

But yeah, overall this film fell slightly below average for me. That doesn't mean it's a bad film! Feel like I always need to say that. It just means it has a lot to be desired, more so than other films that do the same things it does better and in more spades.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Big, dumb, loud, boring and forgettable. Godzilla King of the Monsters is absolute garbage, it's plot is entirely stupid the characters are unlikable and the stupid twist that the mom actually is a good person was forced and stupid. The only 2 characters you actually care about from the 1st are killed off in the most disappointing way possible. Somehow Millie Bobby Brown is unlikely, how? I don't know. The entire film is just 2 cg monsters fighting each other for 2½ hours which sounds cool but by the 2nd fight it becomes boring and time consuming, and the fact that this movie only exists to set up Godzilla vs Kong is dumb and makes you wanna skip this movie, please do not waste your time on this film, not a good sequel to a fantastic 1st film… Expand

The second Godzilla movie had an amazing trailer with the Clair de Lune orchestral song. It still is one of the best trailers to come out in a long time. The trailer was so good that I decided to watch this movie in the theatre on day one in IMAX. However, I came out of it with a mixed thought towards it. So has my feelings towards the movie changed or do I still have the same mixed thoughts?

The biggest praise I have is that they used Godzilla monsters from Japanese movies. The MUTOs from Godzilla (2014) were fine but not memorable. Here the monsters are all different and unique. Mothra looks beautiful, Rodan looks scary and Ghidorah looks grand. They all have great monster designs that stick in your mind with Ghidorah looking like he could take on the legendary Godzilla. The CGI, visual effects and sound effects are all phenomenal too. Another big problem in Godzilla (2014) was the lack of Godzilla and that has been addressed. Godzilla appears way more and does a lot more fighting this time.

On that note, the action scenes are still exhilarating to watch. It is also better choreographed than the previous Monsterverse movies which mean more exciting titan action. Visually the movie is also gorgeous to look at thanks to the cinematography by "Lawrence Sher". Some stunning wide shots illustrate the massive nature of these Titans. The director also uses brighter colours, plus a lot of colour blue, compared to Godzilla (2014) which makes a lot of the scenes more visible including the action scenes. I also really loved the score by "Bear McCreary" who incorporates the classic themes in Japanese Godzilla into the movie. It elevates a lot of the scenes and makes them feel grander.

Unfortunately, the story is incredibly stupid and ridiculous. Previous Monsterverse movies had simple plots that just revolve around getting from point A to B with the monster story happening concurrently with the humans. However, here the humans play a central part in what is happening with the monsters causing the focus to be on the humans rather than the titular Godzilla. The main plot shoved in our face is the human family, the ORCA (a magical plot device that affects the Titans), and some eco-terrorist. The human family soap drama is genuinely dumb and the ORCA is constantly used to do whatever BS the plot requires. There are also some eco-terrorist and their plan is evil yet the movie somehow wants to justify their plan when it's dumb. These stories hog a lot of screen-time and it especially affects the pacing in the second act by spending too long on it that I was getting bored. It's made worse by the fact that the characters are no longer just uninteresting but downright hateable. Dr Mark Russell (Kyle Chandler) is the main lead who lost his son because of these Titans and hates them including Godzilla. He gets an arc where he likes them more now because the plot needed him to be I guess? Dr Emma Russell (Vera Farmiga) is Mark's ex-wife who believes letting all the Titans wake up is going to be great for the world. Her plan is stupid and because of her a bunch of people died yet the movie still want the audience to feel for her. Madison Russell (Millie Bobby Brown) is Mark and Emma's daughter who sides with her mum but then changes her mind. None of these 3 main characters sounds remotely interesting but you're going to spend the most time with all these 3. There are also some other one-dimensional supporting characters including some from the original Godzilla (2014) but they are all incredibly bland as well.

On that note, the tone of this movie is quite comedic and more far-fetched compared to Godzilla (2014). Sadly none of the quips is very funny and it can even clash with the moments which are meant to be serious. For example, there is a scene where the human characters found something astonishing so a natural reaction is "oh my god" but then another character adds "Zilla.." to the end of it and I cringed from the stupidity of that line. There are a couple of other moments that feel like that and it just doesn't work. Some death scenes occur which the movie attempts to make sad but it doesn't work as the human characters are forgettable and it then gets overshadowed by jokes or dumb dialogue.

Overall, Godzilla King of the monsters is very silly and tries to incorporate a serious human story in it but fails miserably. Nevertheless, the visual effects and the monster battles are still great which in the end might be all that people want. After watching this though, I want a movie with better human characters though because the Monsterverse so far still can't provide it.… Expand

Godzilla and Kaiju fans like me will adore this film. However, it tries too hard to delve into it's human characters motivations, which are completely outlandish and taken too seriously. The movie knows what people want, Sci-Fi Kaiju Battles, and it absolutely delivers. It's just a shame that it doesn't entirely capitalize on that concept. Instead it tries to make more of it's human characters than it needs to, resulting in annoyingly boring sections of the movie a chore to sit through. In a desperate attempt to make the human's in a monster movie more serious and relevant than what they need to be, it almost misses the point of it's own outlandish movie plot. Almost.

Whenever Kaiju are on screen, the movie shines and is incredibly rewarding and entertaining, making you remember why exactly you wanted to watch this film, and ultimately, you will be more than satisfied. After separating the wheat from the chaff, you see a Godzilla film, a worthy one at that. Therefore, I am more than pleased with King of the Monsters as a massive fan of the franchise, I just wish the overly serious yet insanely stupid human elements didn't drag it down.… Expand

Countless easter eggs and nods both subtle and conspicuous pepper this film, constantly showing the love the director and his team have for this franchise as musical highlights from Toho's 60s and 70s blare loud and proud. It's a spectacle to behold, especially for fans, but unfortunately the end product is a bit like the 2005 King Kong: a bit too lovey for its own good. KotM has so many monsters, people, and references to cycle through that it has to move at a blistering pace, jumping from one scene to the next with almost no time at all to stop and let things sink in. Major plot points come and go in the blink of an eye with no explanation and character arcs both human and titanic are forced to play out in fast forward. The big epic fights that're meant to be the main attraction are constantly interrupted and obscured by rain, smoke, nightfall, and excessive color grading. The human characters who butt in and out of these big fights are thankfully more emotive, more memorable, and less obtrusive than the ones from the 2014 film, but the cast is far bigger than it needs to be and half of it seems to exist just to deliver Marvel-esque quips and one-liners, many of which fall completely flat. The main thing saving the film is its kaiju cast- all the monsters have been beautifully updated and redesigned and given distinct personalities that are allowed to shine through without any dialogue. They're genuinely fun to watch, even when they're poorly lit and interrupted, and the interactions between them are the real meat and potatoes of the film; as absurd as it sounds, simply cutting out all the human bits and giving them more screentime would've been much more entertaining. KotM isn't bad either objectively or for what it is (a simple drive-in popcorn flick) and it's hard not to smile at all the love poured into it, but ultimately it promises much, much more than it delivers, and depending on what you're looking for that can be either frustrating, disappointing, or both.… Expand

Just a bad flick. Standard Hollywood trash these days: humans are the real monsters, we must end a huge portion of the population to save the Earth, etc etc. And the Chinese influence in this film (and many others) is getting ridiculous. They gave almost every bit of expositional dialogue to the Chinese girl because 1. she can't speak English that well and exposition doesn't leave much room for ad libbing 2. she can't act at all and 3. Chinese investors and the Chinese government told them she had to have a certain amount of dialogue and screen time, as they often do.… Expand

The cast deserves better than this. Because it's the dynamic between Kyle Chandler, Ken Watanabe and Ziyi Zhang is what made the scenes they share more tolerable despite some atrocious dialogue and unbearably cringe-worthy one-liners. And because Millie Bobby Brown could have single-handedly made the formulaic dramatic arc work if it wasn't for the fact the film went for the action from the get-go and for almost the entire first 40 minutes, which is basically consists of a set of crammed together segments of non-stop action and explosions which are all devoid of the slightest tension.

After showing many monsters on screen, for a reason or no reason, to give those who hated Godzilla what they wanted, the plot began to unravel. But the rest of the movie isn't actually any better. As the more the story proceeds, the clearer it appears how superficial and uninspired it is. I liked both Gareth Edwards's Godzilla and Jordan Vogt-Roberts's Kong: Skull Island, so it's not like I can't stand a mindless creature feature, but this is just extremely poorly made. Even the CGI that most people were praising I found quite disappointing. King Ghidorah, in particular, looks so cartoonish. I mean, Disney's Hercules's Hydra looks more realistic!

There's too many human characters ACTING like it's a prestige drama - Mr. Friday Night Lights being the worst offender. Thomas Middleditch is a welcome addition and honestly could have been in it more. For a movie that's 2 and a half hours long, there's about 20 minutes of monster fights, and those parts are 5 stars. The rest of the movie is trash trying to justify it's existence. We don't really need a well crafted story, though it does make more sense than every transformers movie, so good job?… Expand

This film is the predictable sequel to "Godzilla", with the appearance of a legion of monstrous creatures called Titans. I liked, in general, the 2014 film, and I went to see this film with some interest, believing that finally Godzilla was having a more interesting treatment from the cinema. And I confess that I am not disappointed, as the film is even better than its predecessor in some important points.

The film takes the point where the previous one ended and reveals to us the efforts made since then, to create a way of understanding and reproducing the vocalizations of the monsters already awake. It is with this technology that Emma Russel, allied with a group of mercenaries, tries to wake up the sleeping monsters that Monarch monitors. She thinks it will restore a natural balance in the world, perhaps through a massacre. I confess that I found this part of the script somewhat confusing. Against her is ex-husband Mark, who argues that all monsters should simply be killed or left to sleep. It doesn't matter, the fact is that they wake up the only one who should have been left to sleep: the Guidorah hydra, the only one that has the capacity to wake everyone up and control them to slaughter Humanity. It is now up to Godzila and her fellow humans to contain this threat, even if it means the partial destruction of the world.

As in the previous film, there are good and bad things in this story. It's a little hard to believe that creatures like that would spend thousands of years sleeping without being detected by curious humans. On the other hand, the film makes good use of material from classic legends involving monsters (Scilla, Kong, the Loch Ness Monster, Hydra and others). I was not convinced by the supposed alien origins of Hydra, I think it is a little credible detail of the script. There is also a time when everyone seems to stumble over Atlantean civilization, but that is never even mentioned.

The cast's work is more enjoyable in this film than in its predecessor. For a start, I felt that there were more possibilities to connect with the characters. This bet made the film gain more interest as we feel more involved in the action and care more about what happens. Godzilla, in this respect, is a character in his own right. Among the human cast I would positively highlight Kyle Chandler and Vera Farmiga. Both do a good job, even though the character of Farmiga is very difficult to understand and unworthy of our sympathy. Watanabe continues to maintain the good performance that started in the previous film, ending it brilliantly. I don't know if all the merit belongs to the actor or if the screenwriter also reserved better material for the actor, but the truth is that it worked very well. Bradley Whitford, Aisha Hinds, Ziyi Zhang and Sally Hawkins do a good job of support. Millie Bobby Brown is almost left in the film and has little to do but be in danger when the script needs an extra reason for the characters to move faster.

The film maintained the good production values of its predecessor. And there is no doubt that there is a lot of money invested. A grandiose and impressive CGI, with scenarios of pure destruction everywhere, the bet on a more luminous environment, which allows the public to better see the destruction of the world and the epic battles that are fought among the human ruins. Now we see better what the first film kept wrapped in dust and shadows. The monstrous creatures also seem to me better worked and realistic. We also have impressive sound and visual effects, good post-production work, with excellent mixing and editing, well-crafted special effects, good sets, costumes and props.

Overall, it is a satisfying action and sci-fi film, with a somewhat elaborate story that works well if we don't think about it too much. You can pass the time, although it is not a work of cinema art. Godzilla will certainly continue to be a recurring monster in cinema, even though it does not give rise to really good films.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolute amazing mind chilling film. I've been wanting to watch this film for quite some time, but never had the time to. I can honestly say with my hand on my heart that it was one of the best sequels I have ever seen. The graphics, the script, the music, special effects especially are just WOW. Exceptional. The cast, so many good actresses and actors which made it all the better. You just can't recreate such a good iconic movie without the proper cast. I'm honestly 100% speechless. I'm always skeptical about sequels, especially since the first ever Godzilla, but each and every time it just gets better and better. I really hope they make yet another sequel, because I am already dying to see it! Best film I've ever seen this 2020 by far! Even if it did release in 2019. Definitely a 10 out of 10, solemnly because there is no higher number. I would most definitely recommend to anyone. Especially to all the Godzilla lovers out there like me, who loves a good sci-fi and action. All I have left to say is: LONG LIVE THE KING!… Expand

'Godzilla: King of the Monsters' didn't work for me. Sorry guys. I'm gonna be the odd one to say this, but I thought this was incredibly boring.

I re-watched the 2014 version back in May in preparation for this movie and after five years since I've seen it, it still holds up. The scale felt so grand and the overall experience is so epic. It's a shame the same can't be said for 'King of the Monsters'.

People have complied about the characters in the 2014 version, but nothing compares to these planks of wood. Holy sh*t they are so one note. I honestly couldn't care for the whole family dilemma. At least we had Bryan Cranston that brought an emotional hook in Gareth Edwards movie. Heck, the characters in the original weren't too bad.

The comedy between other characters is painfully unfunny and out of place. The writing is really bad and doesn't help any character development. Logical sense for these characters are non-existing.

The visual effects, sound work, and action scenes were all the main highlights of course. I love the concepts of each monster and how visual effect wizardry brought it to life. During the fights or whenever the monsters are about to clash was a lot of fun.

Everything else....not so much.

Look at Pacific Rim for an example of how to do dumb fun movies well.

What a joke of a movie, it wasn't even that enjoyable just for its cgi work which is questionable at best in what are supposed to be the most exiting parts of the movie. Every time Serizawa says 'Gojira' is absolutely cringey. Not that most of the dialogue isn't any better. There's no depth, there's no passion for what Godzilla is for the movie screen. It doesn't blow me away like it should. Which is a shame.… Expand

Godzilla is one of those summer action flicks where the script is so bad that they over-compensated with the special effects. There is nothing new or ground-breaking here but overall mindless fun.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is one of my favorite movies of 2019 but it was not as good as Godzilla and Kong: Skull Island. The visual effects were phenomenal and awesome especially Mothra (who was also beautiful), King Ghidorah, Godzilla, Behemoth, Rodan, and Scylla. The action sequences were magnificent and awesome especially when King Ghidorah came out of the ground and the final battle. The cinematography was excellent. The acting from Millie Bobby Brown, Bradley Whitford, Vera Farmiga, and Kyle Chandler was fantastic. The musical score was superb. The writing was not great and the pacing was a little slow but overall it was a really entertaining movie.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It’s hard to sift through this film for anything redeeming, but–gun to my head–I guess I could say that it’s a lot like The Meg in terms of Chinese production money, dialogue, tonal confusion, and the multiplicity of sacrificial suicide runs. Godzilla: King of the Monsters was the first film I saw with my dad since coming back home. We saw it opening night with a bunch of people who also craved the emotional abuse of throttled expectations. King of the Monsters has a lot of things wrong with it, but if we think of it as a sibling to The Meg, it will organize some of our criticism. On the point of Chinese production money, this is Wanda Qingdao’s first major film, but by all appearances its attempts to mass market this movie in China had all the same effects as every other Chinese production house: no sex, not even the acknowledgement of the existence of sexuality beyond the existence of children, no drugs, no smoking, no gore, not even papercuts, and the obligatory first scene shot in China. It gives the movie a washed out, thin feel, like someone left it in the dryer for too long and the lint trap is full of all the realism and emotional stakes instead of lint.

The dialogue, like The Meg, is consistently snarky, almost weirdly so, as if all the characters are jockeying to be low-key funny, even in situations that don’t call for humor. Kyle Chandler’s character is the chief violator of this, asking cattily if everyone has forgotten he joined the team to find his daughter, rephrasing the potential genocide of Boston as such, “Let’s just say, in another five minutes it’s gonna get real bad for anyone who’s a Red Sox fan.” The general effect is one of tonal confusion. Godzilla is the wrong combination of breezy self-aware cheese and dour seriousness.

The original trailer to this film was a lot more honest about its trajectory and would’ve probably guided audience’s expectations a little better than billing it as a Rock ‘Em, Sock ‘Em of monster mashups. The heart of the film lies in its investigation of loss and grief within a family, and it’s only through this story that the vehicle of Godzilla works as any sort of relevant metaphor or commentary.

There’s a weird fixation with countdowns: 1 min til detonation, 30 sec til impact of the “oxygen destroyer” (ugh), 10 sec til Godzilla boops our window, 6 min til Godzilla explodes. It feels so strange to have someone call out how long we should feel anxious, and then to be told we have to wait 6 whole minutes before our hero may or may not explode.

I’ve got three things that may or may not spoil the film for you below, but I tend to think that there’s really not anything in this movie that’s so complex that it’s a spoiler. I’m genuinely confused about Vera Farmiga’s slideshow while she’s revealing the Evil Plan via the world’s clearest Skype call. When does she have time to put it together? Or is it just a cinematic overlay to drive home her point? Like, we the audience can see it but no one else? Can we see the images with a frame around them in the receiver room or are they always full screen? At one point she seems to make a bit of a Tokyo Ghost-type argument in favor of irradiating the world’s cities, because it ends up–in a round about way–supercharging plant growth in those regions. That’s not actually how radiation works, right? Like, Chernobyl made vegetables grow like crazy, but they weren’t edible, were they?

2. On the point about all the noble suicide runs: there sure is a lot more love in the office for Dr Serizawa (Ken Watanabe’s character) than there is for Sally Hawkins (Shape of Water). They both die, but literally no one but Ken references Sally after her death. Multiple people say the words “This is what Dr Serizawa would want,” or “Let’s do this for Serizawa,” which feels really rough. On a related note, it feels weird that Farmiga gets the easy out by dying while luring Ghidora away from the helicopter that’s got her family on it. A lot more interesting a plot would have been seeing her pay for her crimes and try to patch things up with her family after their unification and her change of heart in Boston. Instead, the story takes the Bradley Cooper route from A Star is Born.

3. Last, a point about the Mothra/Fire Demon fight, which may or may not matter at all in the scheme of things, says The Ringer: once we see the way that Godzilla’s hydrogen bomb explosion snuffs out Ghidora, I felt so relieved that Mothra had already died in (another) noble suicide, but all of a sudden we see that flaming **** bow for Godzilla at the end and I’m left wondering, How the eff does Rodan survive that blast with a “six mile radius” but Ghidora doesn’t? Does it have to do with Ghidora being an alien species? Would Mothra have been cool too or would she have been killed by the blast?

King of the Monsters obviously doesn’t deserve the time we’ve devoted to it...… Expand

When watching this one I felt it was marginally better.

True to the Hollywood standards today, or perhaps lack thereof, the script writers just had to try and squeeze in a lot of green **** about how we destroy the planet and something has to be done bla bla bla.

Interesting enough though, the way it was done, actually made the green fanatics the bad guys in the movie. Whether that was intentional or the writers was too stupid to realize it I do not know.

The story is essentially about how one green fanatic in particular releases the “Titans” as they are called in the movie and uses them to wreak havoc, killing millions, to “balance things” and start a new world. That is your typical green fanatic although with a bit more means than usual to implement his deluded fantasies. Of course Godzilla, with the help of a few clear minded humans, comes to the rescue. That’s pretty much it. As I wrote, a typical substandard Hollywood script.

What makes this movie better though is that the implementation is not so **** full of absolutely stupid and unintelligent sequences as the 2014 movie. The implementation is actually not that bad. The action sequences are really quite good and there’s plenty of big ass monsters in this movie.

I also quite liked that cool super-carrier airplane that the Monarch crew flew around in.

As despicable as the previously mentioned green fanatic is, the role was nicely implemented as well as the main protagonist and most people around him.

The part about kick-starting Godzilla after he was wounded by detonating a nuke in front of his nose was a bit silly though. So was the hole it’s to hot and radioactive for drones as well as for a nuclear submarine so let’s send in a guy on foot. Seriously?

Also the after scenes where life magically sprouted everywhere the Titans had wrecked havoc was more than a little stupid.

If this hadn’t been a cool giant monster movie with a lot of special effects I would have scored it a lot lower. However, I am a sucker for these kinds of movies and I really like Godzilla. I even watched some of the old black and white movies when I was a kid.… Expand

The first hour and a half are downright boring, and the climax (which is, shocker, a fight between Titans) left me less satisfied than the first film did. Cheesy dialogue, a boring story that goes on too long, and a disappointing final fight cement Godzilla: King of Monsters as one of my least favorite films of the year.… Expand

One of the most visually stunning movies I have ever seen with some of the greatest action sequences. The human side of the story drags this down from a 10 to a 9 but the Kaiju (titan) side of the story is very refreshing.

I think the critics really didnt get this movie. Its a monster movie, and for this genre, is a masterpiece. Visuals and audio are just perfect and amazing. Story is not its best but who cares, we came for the monsters battles and those are EPIC.

Yeah, the humans characters were all pretty boring and dull and they kinda sucked but that’s pretty much what all of the Godzilla movies are like. Most of them go like this: A monster shows up. Military and scientist people talk. A monster shows up. Military and scientist people talk. A monster shows up and maybe fights another monster. Repeat. Godzilla: King of the Monsters was pretty much a modern big-budget version of a classic Godzilla movie. Godzilla movies don’t appeal to everyone so this movie isn’t for everyone, but as a Godzilla fan I got my fix. It was so cool to see all the things I saw these monsters do in the old movies with modern effects. There were a ton of really cool references to the older movies, references to King Kong (which I’m so happy is just a part of the Godzilla universe now) and new monsters, not just the big four that were advertised! The story also had some pretty interesting themes and ideas having to do with environmental disasters, which is a fitting update for these movies. The age of the atomic bomb is over. What do these monsters represent today? The monsters were also surprisingly expressive, you could tell what they were thinking and feeling and they showed a lot of personality. There were some issues I had with the movie, it cuts away during the monster fights a bit too much, sometimes it focuses on the human characters for a little too long (the old movies rarely exceeded 100 minutes. This movie is over 2 hours.) and some of the fights were hard to see, but overall I think this is a solid Kaiju flick! If you aren’t a fan of Godzilla, I don’t recommend this movie. It technically isn’t a great movie. However, if you are a fan of Godzilla and love all the classics, I think you’ll get a kick out of it! I sure did, and I can’t wait until Godzilla vs. Kong!… Expand

Human characters just plain bad , they are dumb, Emotional scenes are pure cringeworthy, little/ no time to develop them . Due to her child dying during the event of previous movie emma moves to a darker path ( straight up destroying World's human population to ReStOrE ThE bAlAnCe) to her way of saving the world. Which is just stupid cause just like she cares about her remaining family and tries to save them , but every other families on this planet can demand that but no they deserve to die cause of overpopulation etc etc. They tried to create little emotional moment as that b#tch is dying as the movie needs to and you're supposed to cry which is soo hilarious!You can enjoy the 'kaiju actions ' , whatever the cgi was cause i can't see it was so dark and messy ! This flick is much weaker than other two and also forgettable!… Expand

The main new monster is also poorly introduced and badly designed, by chance this isn't concern the additional creatures. Otherwise the film is correct, Bear McCreary score is by far superior to the Desplat original one and most of the screenplay is at least a bit interesting. The direction and the CGI are also correct.… Expand

Aisha Hinds as Colonel Diane Foster annoyed me a bit. She kind of reminded me of a certain purple haired lady in Star Wars. Hollywood loves showing female character's in charge bossing men around. It's eye rolling at this point. The biggest immersion breaker was the reason Dr. Emma Russell gave for freeing all the monsters. I didn't buy it because it was dumb.. I didn't like Kyle Chandler. And Millie Bobby Brown was fine but all she did was cry.. I liked the scene with Ken Watanabe and Godzilla. It was the only scene I liked other than all the monster fights. Charles Dance is a great actor but he wasn't great in this one. I think the character he played was boring. None of these characters you really care about. The monster fights were cool and looked incredible. The problem is they showed too much of the humans. And I just didn't care. This could of been awesome.. The story needed better writing and characters.. The characters had no depth to them. They were boring and unlikable.… Expand

B-b-b-but muh monster fights! Please, Godzilla still feels like a side-character in his own movie and every time one of these titan fights starts to get interesting the camera cuts away to check back up on whatever the wishy-washy turds at Monarch are doing. Michael Dougherty can't make glorious destruction like Gareth Edwards can and the brief glimpses you do get of the action you came to see are obscured and clouded by environmental effects to the point where you might as well not be looking at anything.

All this stuff you all complained about in the 2014 film is still here yet you're excepting this time around because Godzilla has a few classic names to throwdown with? Nothing has actually improved. So sorry, but I'm gonna have to call you guys out on your crap with this one.

If anything, this a huge step back from what we got before. The writing is just terrible. Only marginally less stupid than Pacific Rim: Uprising, which still holds the title of dumbest Kaiju movie, King of the Monsters doesn't even make use of it's one potentially good idea of people trying to use the titans to reverse humanity's effects on the environment. Instead it's just watching a bunch of idiots constantly flip-flop on whether or not they want to kill Godzilla and company, while Kyle Chandler struggles to decide on whispering or yelling all of his lines. Like seriously guy, just talk normal. That's perfectly acceptable.

Between this and the "talent" hired to make the upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong, it looks like the MonsterVerse is trying to take advantage of what appears to be the DCEU's recent comeback and snag the crown of worst cinematic universe right off its head. A shame, because before this it was in the running with The Conjuring Universe to be the MCU's second. Now it looks like we may need to behead this false king. His castle has begun to crumble.… Expand
