I loved this movie! The action scenes were brilliant, well done and gorgeous. The movie had lots of heart. The emotional scene at the end with the mother and daughter made me cry. Pretty good film
I prefer realistic Godzilla and Kong movement , and action.Godzilla x Kong looks like CGI VS CGI vs CGI video game for teenagers. Ps.Godzilla 2014 will always be the best Godzilla ever , and King Kong 1976 will always be my favourite King Kong movie.
@@nicholasjoseph8297He is saying that the people want a fun monster movie. Not every movie needs to be a thought-provoking drama. Fans of Godzilla and Kong want these monsters to fight
@@cgtabler I enjoy dumb fun as much as anyone else. But would like to be entertained and compelled when monsters are not on screen. You can have smart writing and have fan service. Example MCU phases 1 - 3 , first 2 SpongeBob movie, Top Gun Maverick, JC Snyder Cut, and Godzilla minus 1
Great review Austin. This movie is definetly I want to see in theaters because I'm a fan of Monster and Dinosaur movies such as Jurassic Park, The Lost World, Peter Jackson King Kong which I thought is very great and emotional monster movie, Godzilla Vs Kong, King Of The Monsters and just to name a few. Heck I even enjoyed 1998 Godzilla, I know it's not a gret or good movie at all, it's a guilty pleasure of mine. I haven't seen Minus One cause my local theater didn't play it and I really wished I can watched that movie somehow cause it looks amazing. But this movie looks like I can have a great time and have fun with it while I munch on popcorn, nachos. I'm gonna see it next week and I will definetly enjoyed myself with this movie. Keep It Up Austin 👍😊
I would still want more MonsterVerse movies. It’s safe to say it’s showing a little more consistency than the now defunct DCEU and MCU Phase 4 and 5. You can see some comments saying how much they love MonsterVerse and it’s their current favorite universe. I’m not saying I love Monarch: Legacy of Monsters or GxK, but I would like the lore to be expanded with more titans even if the human characters suck ass like they usually are in most Godzilla/kaiju movies. I didn’t love Monarch but I wouldn’t mind a second season of it. Is Godzilla x Kong (or should I say Kong x Godzilla?) my favorite movie of this year? Um, no. Then again, I haven’t seen a lot of movies this year. I doubt it will be my favorite but I did have fun. I think the leaks and the theories ruined any possible surprises I wanted from it. Shimo was already spoiled by the Playmates toys back in December. There was already a plot leak of Kong punching Godzilla with the BEAST glove. The trailers showed pretty much all of the best scenes from the movie. Warner Bros. is notorious for this as the final trailer for Batman v Superman spoiled the final act with Doomsday. That’s my problem with it. People were leaking the plot as I’m aware this was shown over a month ago with early screening and everything happened according to those spoilers. There really were no surprises and it’s not like we were expecting Godzilla and Kong to lose in Rio. Godzilla x Kong is basically WWE meets buddy cop movie but with kaijus. That’s the gist of this movie. Lots of bullshit talking from human characters we don’t care about over stories we don’t care about. Typical protocol from Godzilla movies. Then the big fight scenes at the end which it did deliver. The moment we saw Kong use Suko as a weapon, that’s when we know this was not going to be Citizen Kane. Godzilla can now run and jump really high in this movie like he’s Air Jordan. High IQ is not required to watch and enjoy fast food entertainment like this.
I didn't know that I had purchased a ticket for a 3D showing (not a 3D fan), But it was well executed and added to the spectacle of a movie like this. I would recommend the 3D for even more over the top fun.
Godzilla x Kong The New Empire (still a ridiculous title!) could best be summed up as the cinematic equivalent of eating a bowl of ramen noodles! It will fill you up but it’s not exactly a thrilling or memorable experience.
Omg Austin! My jaw drops. Love it 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤ yeh love both sides . Hahaha. Bring on more spectacular actions. Yeh don’t care about the story . Sooooo much fun !!!!! 🍿🍿🍿🎉
In Godzilla minus one, he was on screen between 15 to 25 minutes of a 125 minute movie. That movie was literally about the humans and the aftermath of Godzilla until pretty much the boss fight. The Titans were on screen for pretty much 90% of the movie. You are not supposed to focus on the humans. They are there for dialog and to move the plot forward, that's it. I wish one person would just review these movies for just being these movie and not comparing it to any other movie.
BUT that human story was awesome. Like I said, IF it’s well written, I would much rather it be at the forefront. Construct it like you would a horror feature, and have the horrific figure (Godzilla) on screen less because that heightens the impact when he arrives. If they’re there for that, then make it interesting. Move the plot forward but MAKE IT INTERESTING. Minus One PROVED that it is possible. This movie once again features throwaway and bland characters. And don’t say 90% because you and I both know that’s wrong lol
@AustinBurke ok, more like 70%, lol. Minus One is a fantastic movie, but again, it's a different kind of Godzilla movie. Because, when it comes to American films, people have proven that they would rather see big monsters fighting over human development. Godzilla 2014 tried to give us that, but the main criticism was that they just wanted to see the monsters, not these stupid humans. That and why would you kill Brian Cranson lol. Also. Thanks for not getting rude for me just giving my opinion. It's nice to see a disagreement without the comments having a tantrum about it
This movie was a TON OF FUN!!! They dis a great job of focusing MORE on the monsters and able to let the audience know what they were communicating to one another VS SO MUCH HUMAN time. Transformers take note. The Humans and the convenience plot point for convenience of story was kinda ridic OBVIOUS but I kinda didn't care. Was so fun.
It started out fun for me, until everything happened way,too fast. Plot convinience left and right, fights were so short and not fun to watch, a lot of monster screentime but the majority are fillers, forgettable and just there for the sake of having more monsters. Why cant they do it like ghidora/rhodan and godzilla/mothra that is one of the best thing i ever seen in a western film, majority if not all of the monster scenes in that movie are glorious, impactful and just epic they redeem the movie and imo peak of the monsterverse franchise ❤
The time that made me have cringe vibes is between mothra and the girl….like whaaat? Did she fly with mothra to the pyramids and then back down again? 😂
Oh and since I was corrected on this years ago. It is "I couldn't care less" not "I could care less". Sorry to be that guy but since I was corrected years ago I like to pass it on.
For me, 1.Godzilla Kom 2.Godzilla 2014 3.Kong skull island 4.GxK new empire 5.GvK (Godzilla vs Kong is so overrated and Godzilla 2014 is so underrated in my opinion) 🎉❤
There’s this one scene in Cairo where we see Kong just walking that I found really cool. Then we see Godzilla take a pool dive to the ocean and I thought that was cool. The scene in Rio when the beach water turned into ice because Shimo was coming was very cool too. It’s basically similar to another scene in the new Ghostbusters movie. Did you notice when we see Godzilla ready to face Kong in Cairo that Godzilla was much slimmer than he was in the earlier scenes before he got the pink dorsal plates? The earlier scenes, he was still the same size and color as he was in the 2019/2021 films even though we see him jump high and come down like a raptor. It’s like he went through some Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig because he was getting ready for his running scene. You can tell though that the giant apes really have no shot against the giant lizard dinosaurs with stuff coming out of their mouths. Godzilla and Shimo are just so much bigger and stronger than the two apes. Kong punches Godzilla several times with the BEAST glove and Godzilla isn’t knocked out cold at all. But the real fun was seeing Shimo grab Kong and twirl him around. All the giant apes have are weapons to use against the giant lizards which the giant lizards can easily break. Now Grace Randolph ranked her favorite kaijus and isn’t into this Godzilla stuff. She even chose Kong over Godzilla in the 2021 movie because Kong went (and died) in NY and she’s from there. But Grace surprisingly picked Shimo as her favorite kaiju from this movie. Shimo is definitely a big girl. Her longer length and height over Godzilla was very obvious. But I guess she’s a good girl all along if she wasn’t enchanted by Skar King. Perhaps the disappointment from Skar King was he wasn’t as badass as people thought he would be from the trailers. The ending with Suko smashing that ice blade thing gave similar vibes to Arya killing the Night King. It felt like a cheap ending. Skar King should’ve won at least one fight against Kong and maybe knock out Godzilla even once. But Godzilla easily handled that whip he had and broke it. Skar King really had no shot once Shimo got out of her trance. Then he still had Mothra, Queen of the Monsters, to worry about. That’s 1 vs. 3 in Rio and Skar King is the smallest among that four and with a broken weapon thanks to Godzilla. There are only two things Godzilla does in these MV movies. Fighting or sleeping. I don’t even see him eat like Kong does. Man, these kaijus really have no concern for human life aka collateral damage. Kong needs to go back to Hollow Earth and Godzilla needs to join him. MV Godzilla is supposed to protect Earth but then thousands of people will die in Rome, Cairo, and Rio by just taking walks around those cities. Like damn, dudes. F you two! Go somewhere else and fight over there. 😂 It was a fun movie at least towards the end. But the disappointment comes from maybe Skar King not being menacing enough. The fight scenes weren’t all that. Very little time for Tiamat. Godzilla being secondary again to Kong for screen time which wasn’t surprising since he’s hardly shown in his own movies. Maybe 10-15 minutes tops? And the cheap finale with Suko doing an Arya. If we do get more MonsterVerse movies with more dumb kaijus beating the living shit out of each other, I would love to see the bond Kong has with Shimo. I didn’t expect them to join forces in the final scene. That’s the only surprising thing I saw. I thought Shimo would go on her own somewhere else. Kong and Shimo alliance was not something I expected to see at the end. Godzilla seems to be more of an asshole when it comes to team ups and making alliances unless it’s with Mothra. He’s the loner who only sleeps and fights. The only way Kong could defeat Godzilla in a fight is to grab a supersized Stormbreaker and aim for the head. That’s it. Even punches to the face with a BEAST glove didn’t knock down Godzilla unconsciously. Not that Godzilla is UNKILLABLE. We’ve had several versions of Godzillas and he’s lost fights and has been killed before in his movies. But this MV Godzilla seems very difficult to beat. I wish MonsterVerse teamed up with McDonald’s and make Happy Meal toys for the kaijus in this movie. Did you see the toys of Godzilla and Kong in this movie? Brian Tyree Henry’s character had one of Kong hanging and another one for Godzilla but seen from behind while recording his podcast. That’s a nice touch like seeing the Minus One crew hold a Minus One Godzilla toy while receiving their Oscars. That’s part of the allure of Godzilla: TOYS . Kong looks like Harry in Harry and the Hendersons. Not the 1987 movie but the short-lived sitcom of Harry and the Hendersons from the early 90s. Kong looks so coddly in this movie that it makes me want to hug him if he was shrunken to a normal sized gorilla and not the 337 feet he is where his hands would just crush me if he closed them. I would still buy a toy of Skar King even though the writers gave him a cheap death scene as if he was a red shirt in Star Trek. I mean, c’mon, Shimo loses her trance and then freezes SK after Godzilla hit SK like a baseball ⚾️ with his tail that Kong pitched/kicked to him. The fight became lopsided once Shimo was out of her spell. This was spoiled in the final trailer. Kong already had SK by the neck with his BEAST glove before Shimo froze him. SK looks so cool from the trailers and walks like he’s Tupac but then gets the weakest ending and death scene. Where was the huge threat from SK? And his army was getting stopped by Mothra in that floating / no gravity scene. Seemed like nothing was ever at stake. He couldn’t even beat Kong after he injured his left hand. I would be down for a prequel series of Skar King on Apple TV+ and watching him kill people and other apes. They did Skar King wrong here. I really wish I got more out of Shimo but she got relegated to being Skar King’s Rancor for most of this movie. His pet slave. She’s also like Yoshi where you can just ride on her back. A horse lizard. It’s Donkey Kong riding on the back of a White Yoshi and with Diddy Kong (Suko) on the shoulder of Donkey Kong. Nintendo!! Woo-hoo! I would still get a toy of Shimo. Maybe a smaller toy for Skar King and Shimo. The entire scene of Jia returning to her people was a big waste of time. Godzilla x Kong is 75% of nonsense from humans and the other 25% WWE kaijus. I do wonder how big their shits are? That triceratops in Jurassic Park had one big pile of shit. Imagine the shits Godzilla and Shimo have? Like a 3-story building of shit. I’ll watch it again but I’m aware it’s not art. This is not a masterpiece of cinema. It’s closer to a big pile of shit of that sick triceratops in Jurassic Park had if Godzilla, Kong, and the other kaijus weren’t so appealing to watch fight. Let them fight!!
Fair! I mean they were still cartoonish visuals, and the lack of any showcase of scale docked it for me, but I tried to make up in my entertainment category! Lol
ticket sales or not, this movie is a joke. PG 8 in my opinion. the only thing that was missing was Barney I LOVE YOU 💗 THE PINK DINOSOUR.

When Kong was in the hollow earth with the other primates it felt like a scene from the Planet of the Apes. The movie was just silly, and of course they had to throw in a 🌈 gay scene between tony starks and phatos.

How does it compare to Minus 1?
It’s not close, but it’s a load of fun
Who is the new Empire? The monkey has like five henchman and everyone else hates him.

I was expecting higher than 7 in visuals tho.
Fair! I mean they were still cartoonish visuals, and the lack of any showcase of scale docked it for me, but I tried to make up in my entertainment category! Lol
I enjoyed the heck out of this movie despite being so stupid lol especially after Minus One. lol it’s a blessing and a curse.
I thought it was garbage. The stakes aren't there, Godzilla is wasted, and the main boss was underwhelming
ticket sales or not, this movie is a joke. PG 8 in my opinion. the only thing that was missing was Barney I LOVE YOU 💗 THE PINK DINOSOUR.
