Godzilla vs. Kong (2021)

That overqualified cast works hard with the mindless plot, but the stars of the piece remain the venerable beasts themselves.

No film has made me ache more for the reopening of cinemas in May than this trashily sublime, visual-effects-driven blare-a-thon, in which a king-sized gorilla and a radioactive lizard settle their differences over the smoking remains of a city or two.

Of course, everything leads to the massive final battle, the pay-off we've been promised, and Wingard delivers.

Godzilla vs. Kong is a ridiculous movie made even more ridiculous by a distinct lack of care in its conception and execution. But it is also the kind of cinematic assault that delivers just the right jolt to the most base sensibilities hiding within our lizard brains. You walk away dazed but bemused.

After so many tentpoles that have insisted on being metaphors for this or that, the abundance of sound and fury here — take a bow, Tom Holkenborg, composer of the majestic synth score — blissfully signifying nothing, qualifies as a colossal, giddily escapist relief.

Godzilla vs. Kong is a crowd-pleasing, smash-'em-up monster flick and a straight-up action picture par excellence. It is a fairy tale and a science-fiction exploration film, a Western, a pro wrestling extravaganza, a conspiracy thriller, a Frankenstein movie, a heartwarming drama about animals and their human pals, and, in spots, a voluptuously wacky spectacle that plays as if the creation sequence in "The Tree of Life" had been subcontracted to the makers of "Yellow Submarine."

Godzilla vs. Kong is the kind of movie you can pretty much forget about almost instantly after you’ve seen it — but it’s also the kind of movie that makes you forget about everything else in your life while you’re watching it.

Godzilla vs. Kong is a gorgeous, kinetic spectacle that’s so effectively big in its loud colors and ridiculous choreography that any screen outside of a multiplex feels too small for it.

The much-hyped battles deliver the giddy thrills we demand but in the moments when the pair aren’t at war there’s also a staggeringly well-built and extensive universe to explore and one that’s barely been teased in the trailers we’ve seen.

Smiles will surface, regardless, as Godzilla vs. Kong is pure escapism and tremendously fun. Legendary clearly took constructive criticism to heart by tinkering with the pitfalls of its Monsterverse, all of which makes for a stylish theme park ride that rarely loses steam. Granted, the smash ’em and mash ’em action may not be for everyone (you have our sympathies), but for those starving for a rock ’em and shock ’em blockbuster, step into the ring with Godzilla vs. Kong.

当你和一位直男在一起，这种类型的无聊电影你一部都不会错过。

那三个猎奇的人跋山涉水就是为了给机甲哥斯拉断电？

小栗旬努力翻白眼的样子看出来这钱越来越不好挣了

金刚慈祥得像我大姑父，完全一公务猿

别问谁赢了，京东赢了😂

京东的广告打的真牛逼

哥斯拉和金刚打架时还得小心不碰到身后的巨幅🐶东广告，当代怪兽也不容易啊……

和《蝙蝠侠大战超人》的剧情一模一样。

哥斯拉的激光可以打穿地球，但是打不穿金刚～

（提示：含变相剧透）没装备的猴子在野区遭遇高等级鳄鱼被锤。猴子去刷了几波野，回家出了装备，第二战扳回一城。奈何等级劣势明显，后续solo还是不敌鳄鱼。鳄鱼单刷大龙，打不过。猴子不计前嫌前来帮忙，鳄鱼被感动，把buff让给了猴子。

年度第一爽片，说文戏烂的人也不看看片名，谁跑来看文戏？找准定位才是最重要的

哥斯拉竟是全片智商担当！

骷髅岛靓仔：我的CP只能我来掰头 哥总：为我的老铁甘当充电宝 人类：从金刚和哥斯拉的全世界路过 机械哥斯拉：打扰了，我有手有脚我自己走

3.5 惊喜的是废话很少，简单无脑粗暴直接，叙事和角色行为逻辑都可以不顾，一切都是为了打打打，没有前面几部那么多尿点文戏，尽管小11那条线为了和地心小队平行推进显得弱智且拉胯。温加德还是挺厉害，和温子仁一样汲取小成本恐怖片的创作经验，对大场面调度和节奏拥有出色掌控力，同时和爱德华斯犹抱琵琶半遮面的氛围做法完全相反，最大限度展示奇观震慑力，遗憾是缺少了《环太平洋》式的情感肾上腺素，只停留在了奇观层面的视效轰炸（所以优选激光IMAX ），香港夜战也没能成就更惊艳的霓虹魅力，最终留下的记忆点很少（不过还是想要二刷海面第一次对战时向上倒转360度的那个镜头）PS：哥斯拉(2014) > 哥斯拉大战金刚 > 金刚骷髅岛 > 哥斯拉怪兽之王（同类型的环太平洋依然凌驾于这几部之上

天，这莫名的cp感是怎么回事！感觉产粮太太们的二创已经在路上了……金刚明明拿着男主剧本但只能屈居二番，东宝实在太霸道了23333……

全程把我Kong当工具人... 一开始好好的被关起来研究... 然后被绑在船上被哥斯拉胖揍... 被哥斯拉打蒙还硬给救了回来，扭脸就告诉他机械哥斯拉才是敌人？？？Fxxk you humans.

巨兽互殴还是很爽的，我觉得大场面比2要好。但是这剧情不就是哥斯拉金刚小两口吵架，结果发现机械哥斯拉这个妖艳贱货偷家，然后小两口床头吵架床尾和一致对外嘛！骷髅岛靓仔能有什么坏心眼呢~~~

两攻相遇必有一受，当两大Alpha以上下体位贴面对视的时候，我的第一反应竟然是给~我~亲~（bushi

能让金刚和哥斯拉打上整整一小时吗，都是去看两位靓仔互相伤害的。别整人类那些无聊没用的了好么

這部證明了一件事，就是華納終於知道要怎麼拍好看的怪物電影了。把無聊的人類戲份減少到只要重點解釋，剩下就是看巨獸們打到毀天滅地就好了。一旦開始打，什麼都無法阻止，不摻入文戲打斷節奏和在明亮的場景下打（選擇充滿霓虹燈天際線的香港作為決戰地很聰明）能夠看清精準的調度與戰鬥場面，就絕對值得大銀幕 這部兩隻巨獸根本一個攻一個受，有一幕還以為要親下去了，最後哥老吼的那聲是在傲嬌吧
