    One for old Godzilla fans
    "Godzilla x Kong" has faced mixed reviews, with some critics labeling it as "dumb" or criticizing its CGI. However, these critiques seem off the mark. The CGI in "Godzilla x Kong" is some of the best ever seen in a monster movie, far surpassing the days when these creatures were portrayed by actors in rubber suits. It's important to remember that Godzilla and Kong films have rarely aimed for serious, high-brow cinema outside of the very first Godzilla in 1954.

    In comparison to the over 30 previous Godzilla and Kong movies, "Godzilla x Kong" is far from the worst; it's actually a significant improvement. It's definitely a step up from the 2014 "Godzilla" with Bryan Cranston, which, despite the hype, was ultimately disappointing.

    The art style in "Godzilla x Kong" is fantastic, offering visually stunning scenes that keep the audience engaged. The movie maintains a brisk pace, never slowing down, ensuring that viewers are consistently entertained.

    If you want a decent monster movie I'd find it hart to believe you wouldn't be entertained and you certainly won't get bored.

    Is it stupid? It's about a nuclear Lizard creature and a Giant Monkey that come from the hollow Earth , of course it is.

    P.s you can tell the noobs in here, the ones that think this movie introduced the hollow Earth theory in Godzilla movies. It was mentioned a bunch of times but fully explored in Godzilla vs King Ghidorah 1991.

    CGI-fest mess of a corporate-produced movie
    Pros: Production value is pretty high, inline with many of Legendary's other movies. That's about it honestly.

    Cons: incomprehensible plot, even for a kids movie. Cliche as all heck. It's like someone taking all the tropes, fed it into a corporate monster and regurgitated out.

    I like the 80s music revival but this was forced in for no apparent reason and didnt feel cohesive to the movie at all.

    I obviously don't blame the kid, but I hate adding kids to the plot for no reason. And for some reason, it's an ultra special kid with the ability to summon TItans. Just because. No explanation otherwise.

    What is the point of the gravity thingy? If anything it helped the apes escape into the surface.

    You can't throw in east Asians and make them indigenous. It doesn't work like that.

    Just casual mass deaths, I'm thinking at least ten thousand people died during this movie. But giant monsters though, so very cool.

    Worse of all, it was boring! I nearly fell asleep. There was no twist, nothing to keep my attention. It was going to end exactly as everyone thought it would.

    Just obvious cash grabs at this point. It'll become a TNT movie that you have in the background to keep someone's kid entertained.
