Find out why the film misses the mark.

Get ready for another monster battle.

It’s set in the Monsterverse.

(They kind of broke it anyway.)

The action delivers. The rest does not.

The two greatest movie monsters will fight this spring.

Millie Bobby Brown hears Godzilla’s roar in the first teaser trailer for sequel ‘King of the Monsters.’

In just a few years the movies’ most famous gorilla will clash with the biggest and baddest kaiju in a giant monster movie mashup. Adam Wingard’s Godzilla vs. Kong will be the fourth entry in Legendary’s MonsterVerse – no, not that monster universe – which will find the Japanese kaiju meeting the furry beast. But the Blair Witch and You’re Next filmmaker wants to bring something unique to his monster mash: monsters that will make you cry.

Pitting Godzilla against King Kong, something that has already happened once before in movie history, may sound like a simple matter. But no, you can’t just write “Godzilla vs. Kong” on a blank piece of paper and expect it to happen. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Legendary has recruited no less than seven screenwriters and assigned them to the task of turning their parallel Godzilla and Kong franchises into a singular cinematic universe.

It’s been twelve years since Japanese film studio Toho released its last Godzilla movie, the longest gap between films dating back the first Godzilla movie in 1954. And while Japanese audiences have always loved their kaijū (“strange monsters”) movies, the fact that international audiences are starting to develop a taste for giant monsters has set the stage for Toho to bring back their most famous creation in the 2016 blockbuster Shin Godzilla.

Prepare yourself... for the EXTREMELY LARGE MONSTERS CINEMATIC UNIVERSE.

OK, this qualifies as really random, but I had to laugh! Japanhas finally given Godzilla honorary citizenship. Godzilla is 61!
