TRAVEL TO MOVIES: GODZILLA II: KING OF THE MONSTERS

Director: Michael Dougherty
Cast: Vera Farmiga , Millie Bobby Brown , Kyle Chandler , Aisha Hinds , Thomas Middleditch , David Strathairn , Ken Watanabe , Bradley Whitford , Sally Hawkins , Zhang Ziyi , Akhiro Haga
Plot: The new story follows the heroic efforts of the crypto-zoological agency Monarch as its members face off against a battery of god-sized monsters, including the mighty Godzilla, who collides with Mothra, Rodan, and his ultimate nemesis, the three-headed King Ghidorah. When these ancient super-species - thought to be mere myths - rise again, they all vie for supremacy, leaving humanity's very existence hanging in the balance.


My Movie Review: The movie is bland dead in the air! mediocre blockbuster to say the least:0 Godzilla II: King Of The Monsters didn't get the balance human interaction with the monsters it focuses more on monster battle hell make it hanging and boring at times when the fight is over! King Ghidorah rule this part the three-headed giant has lot of appearance wish more monster are shown as nemesis if there going to do battle royale Mothra or Rodan make minimal impact! Vera Farmiga is wrong casting to put here felt I'm in The Conjuring Universe seeing her in dark setting like this Kate Beckinsale from the Underworld Series would be great in playing the lead! Millie Bobby Brown is good for a first timer in the big screen on the other hand she's a 39 year old lady trap in 15 year old girl body the way she act and carry herself mature beyond her age:) Godzilla 2014 is such a hit I expect the same intensity or even better but this second part takes time to resonate as it took us back to the kaiju years sacrificing its human sweeping spectacle:(

Movie News: Godzilla: King of the Monsters: Inside a Fading Franchise! “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” didn’t have a roar quite as deafening as its franchise predecessors. The third entry in Warner Bros. and Legendary’s MonsterVerse opened with a middling $49 million at the domestic box office, a start well below 2014’s “Godzilla” ($93 million) and 2017’s “Kong: Skull Island” ($61 million). Like its series brethren, Godzilla’s umpteenth return to the big screen had more promising start overseas, where it debuted with $130 million. Even so, that’s a potentially problematic drop in ticket sales for a movie that cost roughly $200 million to make. It also likely required a marketing spend in excess of $100 million. “You can’t make an epic monster movie without spending some money,” said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst at Comscore. “The fact that it earned less than the previous films may be an indicator that some creative risks or different perspective on the genre could be needed to reinvigorate or keep it relevant.”!
