Critics Consensus

Come to Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire for the sheer monster-mashing spectacle -- and stay for that too, because the movie doesn't have much else to offer.

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

The script, there is a plot but it's preposterous tosh and it makes no sense, and it doesn't even try to make sense... Stuff. Stuff. Stuff. ROAR.

While Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire did on occasion test my patience, the overall ride does remain a fun one, and because of that, I’m still willing to remain seated on the Monsterverse’s bandwagon — for now.

Rated: 2.5/4

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

This is great fun. A big, dumb movie that tries to explain with scientific language how we get to a place called "Hollow Earth."

I think this is probably the correct direction for the Monsterverse and American Godzilla movies to go. Which is that this is very stupid, and it knows it is, and it rolls with it.

The New Empire is visually stunning and ultimately an epic on-screen Kaiju team-up with visuals worthy of IMAX screens. However, the story and dialogue are incredibly corny, presents forced exposition and you can't wait to skip all the human interactions.

Rated: 2/5

Discussing Film

Here we have a kaiju film that is so confident and unashamed of its ambitions that even the fans who don’t prefer this style can at least say, “It’s not for me, but I can respect it.”

Rated: 3.5/5

A major comedown from 2021’s “Godzilla vs. Kong”. That film was a true blast that capitalized on its titular two characters. This film is way two over the top with countless odd ideas.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
