The best Godzilla-Kong Monster Mash movie. Better by a King Kong leap than the 2014 and 2024 films.
Godzilla meets Kong on the field of battle, which just so happens to be a major city and, in this case, Hong Kong. Godzilla fights King Kong in Hong Kong. Admittedly that phrase has a certain bouncy cadence to it, akin to the Ali-Frazier 1975 fight, Thrilla in Manila.
This is an action movie with the stars duking it out and tearing down a few buildings in the process. Plot, direction, screenplay, character development, and acting take second fiddle to the teeth chomps and fisticuffs, but those are likable features, not bugs.
