Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire in my opinion is better than the previous film because of how it wants little else than to entertain you and have fun, It is filled with so much monster action and cool visuals, and has a light campy feeling where I couldn't help but have fun.
Speaking as a huge Godzilla fan I loved a lot of the little references to Godzilla's past and even how some of the Fights in the movie both reference ( I won't spoil anything for hardcore fans like myself but I think that you will enjoy the nods to Godzillas past). There are some crazy moves that Kong and Godzilla pull off in the film that make both laugh and think that they are cool.
The only reason I am not giving this 10 stars is because the human characters in the film, like the other films in the Monsterverse, fall a bit flat but thankfully their scenes aren't very long and the monsters get just as much screen time as they and all their scenes carry the film. There is still more of a focus on Kong in this film but I'm okay with that because his scenes are entertaining and when Godzilla does show up in the film and towards the climax it is pure blood-pumping action from there on out.
I would recommend this film if you have liked the other Monsterverse movie or if you are a big fan of either Godzilla or Kong (Or even better both)

While I may not be a hardcore Digimon fan, I do admire the risks and new direction this game takes from its child freindly counter parts like the original series.
This reminds me on how I felt on Tamers. A more mature storyline with dark twists and turns and grave consequences for bad choices.
The fact that the game features elements of death, depression and loss really set the game apart from the rest. How the game plans out is left up to the player on what they prioritize most, do you prioritize your freinds, the world or just simply staying alive is left up to you.
The gameplay is very simple and easy to understand. Their are also no penalties for lowering the difficulty of fights which to me is good because this game prioritises its story more then its tactical gameplay.
I recommend this game to anyone who is unfamiliar with Digimon and to any gamer who likes a good storyline with likeable characters and sub par gameplay.

This was the first Anime Film I saw in theaters so this was new im used to streaming these sorts of things on the television or through my game console so seeing an anime like this was pretty neat to me. Anyway on with the review.
This is the first Dragon Ball film to be entirely animated in 3D and so as someone who has watched all the shows and films this is a little distracting to start with, eventually, I got over it but still would have preferred the traditional 2D art style the series is known for.
This film demonstrates that Dragon Ball could use more of their forgotten side characters than constantly relying on Goku or Vegeta all the time.
The film mainly centers around Piccolo infiltrating the Red ribbon Army ( Yes they are back again) trying to figure out what nefarious schemes they are cooking up. They have created two new Androids GAMA 1 and 2 who are just as powerful as all of the Z Warriors combined and are instructed to wipe out the warriors after their creator was deceived into thinking that the show's heroes are the villains. Piccolo tries to enlist Gohans help but finds that he would be no help because Gohan has neglected his training, focusing on his career and family. So Piccolo infiltrates the Army to figure out their plans and stop them.
This film is made for fans of Dragon Ball so newcomers are warned this film is not a friendly jumping-on point. There is a brief recap of the entire history of the show but it's very cramped and will be a lot for newcomers to take in without prior knowledge of the shows or films they reference in the movie.
If you are a fan of Dragon Ball I think you will have a good time. The film calls back to a lot of the original dragon ball elements being more laid back and low stakes, I also liked that a lot of old characters got included in the film making for great nostalgic callbacks.
This film made me smile because of the laid-back nature of Film and as such I did chuckle at a lot of the humor in the film. Dragon Ball is Known for its humor and I'm glad to see it intact here with characters that we have been disconnected from for so long because of how long the franchise has been going on
All in All, I had a really good time with this film, It's not my favorite out of the films ( Personally it's Battle Of Gods for me) and I would recommend this film to FANS and not New Comers if you are interested in watching but have not seen a lot of Dragon Ball then this film is not for you catch up first and then you can watch it with more clarity.
