My age recommendation: 11+ (Due to violence and language).
Remember in 2014 when the first Godzilla movie came out? Everyone loved it, and fans were waiting for more. Now, in Godzilla King of the Monsters, it's a sequel to the great beginning. The story takes place in the present time. Everyone on Earth is shattered from the 2014 Godzilla attacks. A secret organization called Monarch has been operating for 5 years. This organization is dedicated to figuring out how to tame Titans such as Godzilla. When scientist Dr. Emma Russell and her daughter Madison figure out how to communicate with these beasts through sound waves, a terrorist comes in and takes Emma and Maddie hostage. When Emma's ex-husband finds out, he goes to find her. As Emma's master plan begins to unfold, monsters are unleashed throughout the world. The only hope to save the world is by unleashing Godzilla to kill all other monsters. Will Godzilla kill the monsters, or will he join them in the monsters' destruction of the world? Let me start off by saying this: despite what critics have been saying, this movie isn't that bad. The action was awesome, the actors were great, and the movie was realistic. The part I didn't like was the plot. The plot was a little too complicated to understand, and some of the logic in the ideas used in the movie wasn't realistic. Another problem was that the plot was very fast in the beginning, and then, in the end, the plot was very slow. I felt like if the plot wasn't so complicated and slow, then this movie would've been better. Overall, this is an OK movie for Godzilla fans, but has a couple of flaws in the plot.
