Godzilla x Kong is good fun. No where near being as good as Godzilla Minus One, but better then I remember Godzilla vs Kong being.
All the human characters I don't remember from the previous films, and won't remember again from this, exist either to read exposition off a wall, or deliver exposition they couldn't possibly know, in order to explain why the big monsters are kicking seven kinds of ahem out of each other. One is there to give us a bit of mystical woo woo, and why not.
Kong is basically the star of the movie, which is how it should be. Most of the action is well done, and whilst there are bits where the cgi is a bit, well cgi, mostly it's good, and there are some truly stunning visuals. The big battle at the end with lots of monsters smashing seven bells out of each other is a bit all over the place, so you often can't tell who's biting who, but, hey we've all had nights like that.
Far from essential, but you could do worse on a cold bank holiday afternoon.
