I think I've been spoiled by the masterpiece that was Godzilla minus one. Going back to this ultra generic brainless 0 story nonsense is just disappointing. I don't expect a great story but the dialogue was so bad and the story so pointless I almost wanted the humans dead so I didn't have to listen to them. Several Uber generic rehashed MCU jokes that weren't even funny. I love Godzilla and the monster verse started off great with Brian Cranston and that first Godzilla film but since then it's just slowly gotten worse imo. Like I said, I knew this would be dumb and I went in with low expectations but left feeling almost insulted at how ridiculous and stupid it was. I hate to say it because I love the idea of Godzilla movies.
It serves up a berserk dreamscape with plenty of payoff to please the MonsterVerse faithful. Shame about the human stuff, though. Director Adam Wingard has a lot of fun with textures, colors, and camera work, and he's adept at giving fans the over-the-top monster action that they demand via an imposing new villain. Unfortunately, there's no time to spend on making things make sense or even matter all that much, and what few emotional punches are thrown lack the necessary wind up to connect, save for some very well done moments between Kong and his Hollow Earth kin.
Overall didnt live up and the plot was mediocre at best.

What's with all these 9 and 10 stars reviewers?????? It's now they paying people to give movies high praise???
I went to cinema and i feel so uncomfortable the whole almost 2 hours time.
The comedic thing put on the movie make this looks so cringe and corny!
What? They want to transform the Monsterverse into a joke like Marvel? And the humans in this movie are all cringe, whyyyyy? Why they allow to transform every movie into a bad cringe/corny comedy? I don't want to see cringe/corny, i want to se some seriously dark movie about big monsters.
4 stars just for some very decent special effects and that's all! THE 2014 VERSION "GODZILLA"(2014) WAS the best! As well as the Kong: Skull Island! Now they transform Kong and Godzilla into some bad comediants! Don't listen to these 10 stars reviewers!

Something is very wrong with American film making for some time. Nothing makes sense here, intelligence of people is sharply underestimated (on the level of insult) and nothing really works with story. This last film about monsters shows that while it is trying to draw some long forgotten mythology that works worse than in most cartoons for children under 12. Human characters exist only to remind us of long forgotten cliches and definitely not of characters. Destroying the cultural and historical heritage of mankind is order of a day. And in all that there's nowhere in the site possibility of simple 'just sit back and enjoy the rid'. What an insulting mess of corporate idiocy... That beautiful queen under the surface and some fights do save this experience, but the whole thing is not worth the effort at all...
The movie features very few scenes with Godzilla, only a few fragmented shots, including the final battle. Godzilla's total screen time is probably less than 7 minutes. The movie is filled with monkeys throughout, making it more like an independent Kong film because it barely depicts Godzilla, with Kong having far more screen time than Godzilla. I feel like Godzilla's role was forcefully added and feels disconnected from the rest of the movie. Also, the portrayal of SHIMO is superficial, failing to showcase its power, while Skar King is portrayed as a clown; it can't even defeat King Kong one-on-one, lacking a strong antagonist that leads to a rushed conclusion of the final battle. Finally, I have a big question: why do the director and writers like monkeys so much?

- TriviaWith a net budget of $135 million, this is the cheapest MonsterVerse film to date. The filming process was more streamlined than the previous film, Godzilla vs Kong (2021), which had many extra scenes that were filmed (additional character development, lore expansion, and action scenes) but which were ultimately cut from the final film. Director Adam Wingard also cited more experience with the VFX process.
- GoofsWhen Godzilla leaves the Roman Colosseum, he knocks down and destroys a large section of its outer walls. When Godzilla returns to the Colosseum later, its walls are intact again.
