I’m going to have to deduct some points for the score, sound, and script issues...

Full Review | Original Score: C | Mar 8, 2023

Michael Dougherty has delivered a Godzilla movie that is unquestionably action-heavy, probably too much for those with no affection for the classic creature-features.

Full Review | Original Score: 4.5/5 | Aug 21, 2022

Godzilla: King of the Monsters has done an effective job of making larger-than-life creatures completely inert, and any popcorn-munching fun that might've come from such a show has been reduced to a dismissive shrug.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 2, 2022

Strong action, weak dialogue unfortunately.

...exceedingly, distractingly slick...

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 6, 2021

It's difficult to know what could make Godzilla: King of the Monsters a truly enjoyable film, but a start would be to focus on what everyone wants to see - the monsters - and leave the tricky plot mechanics for pretty much any other movie.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters is in 3D - Death, Destruction and Decibels - but has a certain kind of cheesy appeal.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 31, 2021

And listen, it's ridiculous. Godzilla: King of Monsters attempts to pack in so much bang, you forget why the fighting started in the first place. It's an action film on steroids.

If you're happy to sit through scene after scene of utter nonsense to get to the next sequence with giant CGI creatures biting each other, then Godzilla: King of the Monsters may be for you ...

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 28, 2021

The story is a little bit of hollow it's a little bit orced... but - big but!- Godzilla makes up for it. The return of Godzilla and all of these friends is pretty amazing and pretty epic.

Full Review | Dec 16, 2020

An epitomic example of bombastic spectacle unable to overtake terrible storytelling.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/10 | Dec 7, 2020

A surprisingly dull affair as far too much time is spent on a truly ridiculous plot involving the freeing of Godzilla's rivals and far too little on epic monster throw downs.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Nov 20, 2020

After a subpar 2014 effort, Mike Dougherty keeps the focus on the monsters during this sequel, which makes for a lot of fun and a breezy pace.

Full Review | Nov 10, 2020

Doesn't make a lick of sense, but it has a lot of fun along the way.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4.0 | Sep 9, 2020

It is full of hollow characters that escape without scratching from any explosion, foreseeable situations that cause me to yawn and sequences of mass destruction that never leave redundancy. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 3/10 | Aug 3, 2020

King of the Monsters is a solid, powerhouse kaiju story that even manages to find the time to make us like a couple of the human characters as well. That's a win in my monster book.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 28, 2020

Don't let naysayers put you off - Godzilla: King of the Monsters is a lot of fun and a bombastic salute to the franchise's history.

Full Review | Original Score: 3 / 5 | Jul 27, 2020

It's a never-ending assault on our visual, auditory, and common senses.

Full Review | Original Score: D | Jul 8, 2020

Everything my soul needed: kaijus mercilessly destroying each other, destruction, an epic music score, cheesy lines, and beautiful cinematography. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Jul 7, 2020

Godzilla: King of the Monsters ... [amps] up the monster action and even [gives] us a framing plot that's just as good as Kong and better than the one in Godzilla.
