WHERE CHATTERS GO TO TALK ABOUT OFF TOPIC STUFF!
It's Godzilla vs. Kong! I just finished watching this on HBO Max, after getting caught up in the "Monsterverse" over the past few days, watching the three Godzilla/Kong movies that precede it in continuity (Godzilla 2014, Kong: Skull Island and Godzilla: King of Monsters). Ummm...how to I start this review...oh, I know. The plot? It's utter rubbish. Even taking into account the previous three films, the plot to this one makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. It's like the makers of this film acknowledge that when you have a film franchise as absolutely preposterous as this, nobody really gives a rip about the plot, because anyone watching this film who is even halfway familiar with the source material isn't exactly coming into it expecting to watch a future nominee for Best Picture at the Oscars. I mean, it's GODZILLA vs. KONG, not The English Patient...If you don't know what to expect just from the title alone, you probably don't have any business watching this movie. So...if we can throw away the plot entirely (because you can), what does that leave us, as far as a movie goes? Well...some of you might remember an old game for the SNES called King of Monsters... The game is relatively simple: It's a fighting/beat-em up game that uses generic versions of kaiju (Basically, giant monsters), with destructible city backgrounds. This movie is basically like that....so, pretty much what you fully expect to see in a movie called Godzilla vs. Kong. Which brings me to the point, really. WHO GIVES A CRAP IF THERE IS NO PLOT??? Seriously, this movie was highly entertaining to watch, preciously because of the reasons you'd expect it to be highly entertaining to watch, even without a cohesive story...Godzilla, Kong (and a mystery 3rd contender) in a battle royal that causes countless amount of damage to CGI Hong Kong...What more do you need?
Long story short, it's just a damn fun movie, as long as you aren't expecting Oscar-worthy dialogue...
