Going from Godzilla Minus One to this was a lot like going from The Dark Knight to Batman Forever. It's an amazing tonal whiplash.

I'm not going to recommend against seeing it, but it is more of a two-hour video game than a traditional movie. They rely pretty heavily on the frequent monster appearances and heavy final fight to keep audience enthused.

This movie is highly derivative of other properties. They have banshees from Avatar. You have Planet of the Apes and Temple of Doom action going on. Kong has an Infinity Gauntlet. They have their own Baby Yoda / Baby Groot. To be fair though, who doesn't?

It's almost like a drinking game to spot what they borrowed and from whom. It's kind of a lazy film in that regard. I wouldn't be too surprised if Adam Wingard was over the Godzilla/Kong experience with the last movie and just winging it this time.
