Godzilla vs. Kong 2021

It has a better story than “monsters killed my son but let’s unleash them all to cure the planet of Climate Change.” The film also has better reviews due to being shorter than King of the Monsters. Critics don’t have long attention spans.
Godzilla vs King Kong though has so many human characters and the two giants, that it should be longer. With that said I was entertained throughout.
Adam Wingard’s last two movies were a not so great Blair Witch sequel and a disappointing Death Note adaptation. So I didn’t have much faith him despite him doing You’re Next and the Guest.
He instantly shows he can handle a movie this big. It is well made and visually stunning. However it is more like a Journey to Center of the Earth 1950’s science fiction movie. Than it is a non-stop battle between big monsters.
It takes a long while before you get a good battle between the two. While it is much more of a Kong movie than a Godzilla movie. Kong has the most screen time.
The under-rated King of the Monsters. Made for a better creature feature. Godzilla vs King Kong makes for a good old fashioned science fiction film, though.
