Review of the movie "Godzilla: The King of Monsters": Monster mash to the max

Very early in the film, it becomes clear that Godzilla: The King of Monsters does not deceive. The action starts about 20 minutes and continues unabated to the credits. The third film from the production house, Legendary Entertainment's Monsterverse franchise, is a sequel to Godzilla (2014), which establishes the story of the origin of kaiju (giant monster). After saving the human race in the previous film, Gojira (Godzilla in Japanese) disappeared underwater until he needed it again. Monarch, the secret organization that oversees Godzilla, has found several Titans (ancient gods of kaiju) around the world. Monarch scientist Emma Russell (Vera Farmiga) has developed Orca, a system for communicating with the Titans, but her well-intentioned projects are not doing the right thing. Although the gigantic radioactive lizard has proved that, in the first film, his allegiance was to coexist alongside humans in the first film, the authorities have been working to eliminate it. This time, he is lying on the ground, but when other dormant kaiju are awake, the king presents himself to prove his reign.

There is a complicated premise about King of Monsters almost as if the writers Michael Dougherty and Zach Shields wrote an after-the-fact story, after a careful reflection on minute monster purges. In order to add some depth to this Hollywood blockbuster, they also attempted to subliminally convey a rather noble message: humans should be less arrogant about our position at the top of the food chain and learn to coexist with d & rsquo; Other species. . But with an overly complicated scenario and one-dimensional characters, the benevolent missive of writers is completely lost in translation.

Because Dougherty achieved such a spectacular visual feat with King of Monsters all his companions. the mistakes of writing are forgiven. The movie is all that can be expected from giant monsters who fight to death on the big screen while destroying everything that happens. Buildings crumble, fires burn, screams fill your ears and a crescendo of light and sound unfolds, one after the other. The attack of the monster action is all you hoped for: adrenaline is afloat in a free flow for all. In an exemplary way, Dougherty managed to raise the stakes, even when you think nothing can be improved. King of Monsters will delight and enthrall fans of the Japanese Godzilla franchise, as well as the uninitiated. As a character rightly says, "Long live the King". Come get the kaiju and stay for exactly what you paid for.
