Summary
Reviewers say 'Godzilla vs. Kong' is celebrated for its stunning visual effects and exhilarating monster battles, offering a feast of action and CGI. Conversely, it is faulted for its flimsy plot, shallow human characters, and incoherent narrative. Many find the story secondary to the combat scenes, resulting in a fragmented and implausible storyline. Despite these drawbacks, the film is deemed enjoyable for audiences craving action and visual grandeur, though it disappoints those hoping for a more compelling plot and richer character arcs.
Featured reviews
I am glad I watched this film for 3 reasons: 1-good runtime of 1h 50m, 2-never gets boring, 3-relentless impressive action sequences. Don't expect much from the plot but prepare yourselves for some epic monster fight scenes and some great ideas on visuals. If you have seen the previous kong and godzilla films then you will like this a tad more. But if you haven't, it doesn't matter; it will keep you invested throughout. Its at least a 7 because they kept it relevant to what it is. Its just a fun movie 7/10.
Although the human characters were kinda dull for a bit but the movie did gave us the spectacle which was promised. I am very pleased with titan brawl,vfx, and amazing soundtrack. I would be very happy if the monsterverse gets a green light to continue it's saga. Kudos to everyone is involved.
Watch the film in the biggest screen possible.

I liked the action but once again, The story and characters were unbelievably bland.
I love Godzilla, I love Kong. Face to face they fight like there is no tomorrow for one of them. The battle is very entertaining and breathtaking. Visual are the best of all other monster verse by WB.
The weakness is in the plot and story telling. They should paid a bit more attention on the story and human characters to make them at least interesting.
Battle is 10/10 Story and plot 4/10.

I guarantee 99% of viewers just wanted to see two titans go at it. Nobody cared about the humans in this movie. So why does WB keep trying to force humans down our throat in these movies? In an hour and 50 ish minutes were forced to watch people for 80 of those minutes. There's way too much time trying to make a plot here that I don't want to see.

- TriviaWhen asked about the apparent height difference between Godzilla and Kong in 2018, Adam Wingard said "They gave us a good out in Kong: Skull Island (2017) when they mentioned that Kong is still growing, but that'll be a challenge we have to deal with, and we're very aware of that issue."
- GoofsLind sees the HEAVs for the first time just before the teams embark on them. In an hour he's suddenly able to pilot a HEAV and even let it explode on purpose.
