?Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (12A)

率ing:

判決: Monstrously pointless

At the end of a week of football internationals, the nation's multiplexes welcome Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. This seems fitting, somehow. On paper, Godzilla and Kong are a formidable attacking 共同, but the reality is that they're not team players.

A harsher reality is that Adam Wingard's film is not very good. It's a sequel to the same director's Godzilla v Kong (2021), which wasn't much 警官,(賞などを)獲得する, either, but at least it didn't make a monkey out of its audience.

The computer-generated effects are workaday at best.?It rapidly becomes exceptionally dull. This is a film largely devoid of thrills, tension, fun and even basic coherence

This time we're 推定する/予想するd to swallow a 負担 of pseudo-科学の gobbledygook, spouted by Rebecca Hall and Dan Stevens ― almost as if they understand what they're talking about when they bang on about dorsal plates and plasma readings ― 基本的に filling time before the next thunderous punch-up between snarling CGI beasts.

It 速く becomes exceptionally dull. This is a film 大部分は devoid of thrills, 緊張, fun and even basic coherence.

The computer-生成するd 影響s are workaday at best, and the story's 主要な/長/主犯 baddie, a gigantic 大主教 有能な of wiping the 床に打ち倒す even with the mighty Kong, 単に reminded me of a 最高の-sized King Louie, The ジャングル 調書をとる/予約する's rascally ジャングル VIP.

What passes for a narrative has Kong 板材ing around the primordial 楽園 known as Hollow Earth, which looks like it rose from Jurassic Park's cutting-room 床に打ち倒す, while Godzilla kicks off in the Eternal City, 粉砕するing what's left of the Colosseum with one misplaced stamp of a 広大な/多数の/重要な scaly foot.

Whose idea it was to place him in Rome I cannot say, but evidently someone with a distaste for 古代の monuments plotted this film, because he and Kong later turn up in Cairo in Egypt, inconsiderately bumping into the pyramids.

What passes for a narrative has Kong lumbering around the primordial paradise known as Hollow Earth, which looks like it rose from Jurassic Park’s cutting-room floor, while Godzilla kicks off in the Eternal City, smashing what’s left of the Colosseum with one misplaced stamp of a great scaly foot

Skar King - the villain of the film. The story’s principal baddie, a gigantic primate capable of wiping the floor even with the mighty Kong, merely reminded me of a super-sized King Louie, The Jungle Book’s rascally jungle VIP

一方/合間, Dr Ilene Andrews (Hall) and her two tiresome wisecracking pals, Trapper (Stevens) and Bernie (Brian Tyree Henry), 徐々に work out that her 可決する・採択するd daughter, Jia (Kaylee Hottle), is not just the only 生き残るing member of the indigenous Iwi tribe from Skull Island, whence Kong 起こる/始まるs; or the only human 存在 who can converse with the big guy and stop him going ape.

No, the fearless mute 十代の少年少女 is also the only person who can infiltrate another lost civilisation and raise a messianic monster (承認する, a 大規模な bat) from its slumbers, in time to help both our clumsy globetrotters as they 部隊 to 敗北・負かす King Louie.

For some 推論する/理由 this almighty 捨てる takes place in Rio de Janeiro. Maybe the 生産者s had an 注目する,もくろむ on the South American box-office. Whatever, while everything goes nuts in Brazil, you will almost certainly wonder why you bothered.
