‘Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’ User Reviews:
According to X User, @fandads, ‘Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’ is non-stop action and a fun time in the theater! Give us more movies with these monsters fighting each other, and we will eat it up.
According to @mikes_monsters, ‘Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’ is a psychedelic epic monster mash of a movie. The lifelong Godzilla fan in me was grinning ear to ear for most of the movie. It is so much fun, and I can’t wait to watch it again!
According to @EpicFilmGuys, ‘Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’ is a vibrant, action-packed, monster-loaded slugfest. A literal translation of an exciting theme park ride put to screen. Adam Wingard pulls no punches in delivering the gargantuan goods. The most fun I’ve had with MonsterVerse so far.
According to @griffschiller, ‘Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’ is an ATOMIC BLAST! A fantastically weird, psychedelic trip through the Shōwa Era with all the vibrance of an 80s album cover. This thing is an absurdist romp—crimson apes, frost dragons, a delightfully absurd Dan Stevens. Another fun entry in the MonsterVerse!
