Greetings!

I have never been a huge fan of Godzilla and King Kong but I have to admit that I do love some of their movie iteration. In King Kong, I particularly like 2005's King Kong and Kong: Skull Island. In Godzilla, I like the 1998 iteration of Godzilla. Both franchises' successor films are all good. But I didn't have much interest in them and still, when I watch them I am entertained and impressed by how they were made and the stories are all good.

"Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" is all about the latest adventure of both Godzilla and King Kong. In the 2021's Godzilla vs. Kong, we saw the two titans squared off against each other which taught us that Kong's brute force is no match for Godzilla's Atomic Breath. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire showed the same, that King Kong is still no match against Godzilla even if he has an augmented upgrade.

Hollow Earth

I like it when Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire still delves into the environment of Hollow Earth. I particularly like the idea that King Kong is now living in Hollow Earth. But then it makes me wonder why Hollow Earth seems to have sunlight going through from the outside.

In this screenshot and all of the scene of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire shows that there seems to be sunlight going through inside the Hollow Earth (source: screenshot from Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire)

Just like I said earlier the sunlight doesn't make sense from the Hollow Earth perspective. Hollow Earth is said to have under the Earth's crust and it doesn't make sense that there is sunlight everywhere on the Hollow Earth. Well, it is a movie, so, anything is possible.

I am thinking of things that I don't like about this movie but then it seems to me that I do like its entirety. The story is interesting enough and how it is made is simply amazing. Needless to say, it is a very interesting movie.

Interesting story

Although I knew right from the beginning that there was a new character that would be introduced it is the story of how the character that will make or break the plot or is it going to be a plot hole? But then I never thought of it as a plot hole but a new addition to the story of the franchise. Kudos to the writer that made the story interesting and made me guess right from the start.

Shimo

After the introduction of Skar King, I am still very curious about how the "Godzilla-like" will be introduced. Right from the beginning the two characters that will be introduced left me very curious about how they are going to be introduced because in Kong: Skull Island, King Kong's race where thought to be extinct but then in Godzilla vs. Kong it was revealed that Kong not from the surface but from Hollow Earth. As I was saying after Skar King was introduced I was waiting for the Godzilla-like character to be introduced and then out of nowhere Shimo was a prisoner of Skar King that he can command because of the crystal that's in his possession until Suko destroyed it.

Conclusion

All in all "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" is a very interesting movie to watch. It has all the elements that you want to see and with that being said it doesn't make you feel that fatigued in watching the franchise. But it led me to think about what comes next after this movie. Although the battle scene is very short compared to Godzilla vs. Kong it is still a good one. And I must say that I do have an idea of the ending, that Skar King will die but I never thought what would happen to Shimo.


That is all for now guys, catch you up with the next one. Wishing you all safety, good health, and abundance.
