Both great movie monsters have been the villains in the past. This time, it looks like King Kong is playing hero and Godzilla is on a rampage. As one character says of Kong, “The world needs him to stop what’s coming.”
Here’s the Godzilla vs. Kong synopsis:
Legends collide in Godzilla vs. Kong as these mythic adversaries meet in a spectacular battle for the ages, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance.
Kong and his protectors undertake a perilous journey to find his true home, and with them is Jia, a young orphaned girl with whom he has formed a unique and powerful bond. But they unexpectedly find themselves in the path of an enraged Godzilla, cutting a swath of destruction across the globe. The epic clash between the two titans–instigated by unseen forces–is only the beginning of the mystery that lies deep within the core of the Earth.
