​"Godzilla Vs Kong"

Watched English movie 'Godzilla Vs Kong'. 

This film is directed by Adam Wingard. Produced by Thomas Tull and others. Screenplay by Eric Pearson, Marc Borenstein. Music by Tom Holkenborg. Cinematography by Ben Seresin. The film stars Alexander Skarsgård, Millie Bobby Brown, Julien Dennison, Kaylie Hottel, Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, Eliza Gonzalez, Damián Bichir, Kyle Chandler, Shun Oguri, Lance Reddick, Tasneem Rock. The film runs for almost 1 hours 53 minutes and was released in 2021. I watched it on Netflix with Aditi on 11th Jan 2023. 

Apex industries head quarter is attacked by Godzilla inexplicably. This is first sighting of a Titan in years. As per the hollow earth theory, there is an ecosystem inside earth where Godzilla lives. There’s unlimited energy source there. Only one, who can find way to that world is another Titan Kong. So, Kong is released from his biosphere and humans follow.

How will King know where to go? Who can communicate with Kong? When the two titans meet, they will fight till one surrenders. How to avoid the fight and find the hollow earth?

Alexander and Rebecca play scientist. Kaylee plays sweet little girl who can’t speak but can communicates with Kong. The chemistry between Rebecca and Kaylee is adorable. Brian plays a paranoid engineer. Millie Bobby plays a teenager who is trying to decide the Apex mystery with Brian. 

Hollow earth theory is proven wrong, but it works for the fiction. It’s a clash of Titans. Godzilla is much more powerful than Kong. So will Kong survive? There is a reason for Godzilla attacking Apex. What’s it?

For this kind of movie special effects must be really good. They are. It’s the USP. The story is a little weak. The battle between Godzilla & Kong should have been one sided with Godzilla’s laser energy. But it isn’t. 

There is a big final fight and it involves three Titans. Godzilla, Kong and Meca-Godzilla. Together they destroy entire city. No idea about the loss of lives. 

This movie earned 3 times its production cost. So it was a commercial success. 

Positives: Special effects. 

Negatives: Story,  

Watch if you like this kind of movies.
