Spoilers are ahead!
Godzilla kept on disappearing from the fight which was slightly annoying. This made it to where Kong got beat up a bit from a 2 on 1 attack rather than a tag battle. While I loved the concentration on Kong during this outing and allowing him to get a good amount of shine it also lend to more damage to Kong than needed.
There was another location under the home world of Kong? It was very surprising to see another environment under Kong’s world. I wonder if they really would go a bit deeper in the future. This didn’t make much sense since there’s only so much under the crust to go.
Dwight's Hypothetical Corner
Let's say I change one thing. Maybe that one thing will make this movie better or more watchable.
I’ve said it once, I’ve said it on the previous film in this franchise is the removal of humans. If this movie spent very few times cutting to the human story it would make for a better monster film. All you need is slight cut overs to the humans to give some expositing and nothing further. The whole Iwi plot line wasn’t needed. They could have kept that piece out to give more fighting from the monsters. Give us what we want!
