Legends collide in "Godzilla vs. Kong" as these mythic adversaries meet in a spectacular battle for the ages, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance. Kong and his protectors undertake a perilous journey to find his true home, and with them is Jia, a young orphaned girl with whom he has formed a unique and powerful bond. But they unexpectedly find themselves in the path of an enraged Godzilla, cutting a swath of destruction across the globe. The epic clash between the two titans--instigated by unseen forces--is only the beginning of the mystery that lies deep within the core of the Earth.

Critics Consensus

Delivering squarely on its title, Godzilla vs. Kong swats away character development and human drama to deliver all the spectacle you'd expect from giant monsters slugging it out.

This long-awaited blockbuster matchup makes it easy not to think about the so-so story and characters by serving up plenty of action and incredible effects.

Exactly the blunt, escapist dazzle you need in the middle of a pandemic.

It's exactly what you think it is, no more no less. It's a shame because there are elements of a more interesting movie here...

The film looked terrific. There is some imagery here that honestly took my breath away.

Everything looks and sounds like you’d expect a two hundred million dollar production to be, but it lacks the vision and grit of Jordan Vogt-Roberts’ terrific SKULL ISLAND or the sense of scale in GODZILLA 2014.

Rated: 2/5

I had been waiting for a modern day remake of King Kong vs Godzilla and this submission does not let me down. Far from just involving the two titular monsters, it also throws a very sleek, state of the art Mechagodzilla into the mix. This movie was just what the Doctor ordered after a long dreary spell of everything being on lockdown for no reason other than "because we all Said so". The only part that I found lacking is that Millie Bobby Brown did not go down Kong's cake hole. I would have given this movie a sixth star just on the strength of that!!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

For Godzilla fans, Kong fans, or monster fans in general, its a no-doubt must-see, but even in general its a fun, exciting, action-packed sci-fi thriller with loads of intrigue and imagination. The special effects have to be the best of 2021, and Tom Holkenborgs musical score enhances the film even further. It moved me, it thrilled me, it keeps me coming back for more!!
