An overly dumb attempt of an 80s throwback

With monsters that exist only to fight each other and characters that exist only to explain why the fights are happening, 'Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire' feels like an elaborately expensive WWE event.

The soundtrack feels like it came right out of a40 year old's playlist, with barely any of the songs having any meaning to what we're seeing other than to turn up the fun factor that little bit more. The story can best be summarised as 'big ape and big lizard vs evil big ape and misunderstood big lizard', with every scene and sequence featuring humans that lead up to the fights consistently crank up the ludicrous levels of over-explanation as to how any of it makes sense. The monsters, after all this time, are put front and centre with Kong leading the charge. The effects look on par with the previous Monsterverse entries, but the fights are far and beyond superior with understanding of gravity and physics traded in for hilariously, stupidly entertaining punching matches.

On the other hand, a lot of the actors kinda look like they're clueless about what they're doing, but are decent at selling the absurdity. Although I liked Dan Stevens the most, but I didn't really find any of the characters that interesting. The jokes are the same inoffensive streamlined humour that plagues modern movies and therefore the only laughs you'll get are from the monster fights or stupid science jargon that doesn't make sense. The 'New Empire' itself too is more like an ancient empire, so I gotta ask, what's wrong with the title 'Godzilla X Kong: The Old Empire'? And for a movie that headlines Kong and Godzilla, there really isn't that much Godzilla and that monster kinda feels more like a side character than a co-lead.

This is a movie that isn't really supposed to make sense and is by almost every sense of the term, a 'popcorn flick', an easily digestible blockbuster movie. It works purely as switch-your-brain-off entertainment and nothing else.
