Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)

"Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" features the sort of threat to humanity which makes these films so fantastic. The threat on this occasion, at least in part, deals with the Skar King and his desperate bid to conquer the surface of the earth. He led his tribe into war against Godzilla once before, we are told, but they were defeated and now the Skar King is making yet another bid to reach the surface. The way all the parts of this story are gradually disclosed in a piecemeal fashion as the film unfolds leaves a good quota of mystery and intrigue for us to puzzle over and savour. The poignantly bitter sweet yet heart warming spine of the whole film concerns the idea that Jia and Kong are the last of their tribes and this is well expanded upon and it all works terrifically well like the rest of it to produce a popcorn movie of truly epic proportions which is great fun to watch.

I'm not sure people realize what it is they're watching. Correct if wrong but isn't Godzilla and Kong suppose to be more monsters destroying cities while not giving a lick about humanity?
Why is it they seem more like Marvel Universe comedic duo than what they're suppose to be in these films. Godzilla 2014 got it a lot more right than whatever this mess is.
People legit lowering standards even for a dumb action film like this. Godzilla/Kong aren't enjoyable and I'm tired of the human trope playing way too much of a soap opera act in the background.
