The mythical monsters have become charismatic characters that the audience both loves and fears, and every time a new movie from this universe comes out, the audience rushes to the theaters as they did back in the day with Transformers &#8211; perhaps its true reference in this sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Godzilla x Kong : The New Empire | Official Trailer\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lV1OOlGwExM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the Monsterverse, Legendary is doing what Japan started back in the day but few have dared to do later: <strong>putting gigantic creatures to fight each other<\/strong>. And, well, despite it may seem like a simplistic narrative at first glance, it is clear that it is working perfectly, both in terms of box office success and the quality of its scenes and effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, with <strong>Godzilla and Kong: The New Empire<\/strong>, Wingard faces a new challenge. After doing almost the impossible with Godzilla vs. Kong, he has decided to bring together the two most popular monsters in film history to face a new threat together. Undoubtedly, the premise already seems crazy, but the film promises to be a festival of spectacle that doesn&#8217;t give any respite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/godzilla-x-kong-2-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-329025\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The ultimate film of the Monsterverse<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The premise of<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/we-have-new-trailer-of-the-monsterverse-godzilla-x-kong-the-new-empire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"> Godzilla and Kong: The New Empire<\/a><\/strong> already makes it clear that <strong>it is a movie like very few in its kind<\/strong>. After working on the construction of a unique universe, they have created a story that can only be conceived under very specific conditions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;This latest installment continues the explosive confrontation of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/godzilla-vs-king-kong-monsters.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Godzilla vs. Kong<\/a><\/strong> with <strong>a completely new cinematic adventure<\/strong>, which pits the Almighty Kong and the Dreadful Godzilla against a colossal threat yet to be discovered and hidden in our world, endangering their own existence&#8230; and ours. The new and epic film will delve into the history of these Titans, their origins, and the mysteries of Skull Island and other places, while uncovering the mythical battle that helped shape these extraordinary beings and forever connected them to humanity.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/godzilla-x-kong-3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-329026\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To get more clues about Godzilla and Kong: The New Empire, the best thing is to approach <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/trailer-monarch-the-legacy-of-monsters-apple-tv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Monarch: The Legacy of the Monsters,<\/a> the exclusive series from Apple TV+<\/strong> that expands the Monsterverse in a very interesting way. Although it was something that was already warned in the previous films, everything behind this universe is much bigger, and it is clear that it can continue to expand almost indefinitely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But <strong>what is the critics saying about Godzilla vs. Kong: The new empire?<\/strong> The ratings on Rotten Tomatoes have not been released yet, which will surely clarify if it has been a great success or not, but there are already viewers who have been able to take a look at the premiere, and their comments make it quite clear that it lives up to what has been seen so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">GODZILLA X KONG is an absurdly fun ride.
