They’ve been making giant monster movies almost as long as they’ve been making movies. Sometimes they’re metaphors for real world terror. Sometimes they’re just guys in rubber suits smashing models. Sometimes they’re legitimately great cinema. Sometimes they just exist to while away a couple of hours. Sometimes they’re an embarrassment to anyone who watches them and anyone who made them. But what ultimately separates one kind from another?
That’s what this edition of KIMT’S Kaiju Throwdown will examine as we pit perhaps the first big crossover in cinema history with its descendent almost 60 years later. It’s “King Kong vs. Godzilla” (1963) vs. “Godzilla vs. Kong” (2021) in a battle between films that walk that fine line between fun and failure. SPOILER ALERT: Only one avoids tripping over its own gigantic feet.
‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ is a clash of the titans – and mismatched storytelling styles

If “Godzilla vs. Kong” sounds like the billing in a prize fight, the movie – a creature-feature sequel to 2017’s witty, stylish “Kong: Skull Island” and 2019’s more flat-footed “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” – lives up to that rock-’em, sock-’em dynamic, in more ways than one.
In a literal sense, it’s a multi-round matchup between the reptilian behemoth, an atomic blast-breathing kaiju, and the big ape, who’s looking a little worse for wear and gray in the muzzle as the film begins, several decades after the Vietnam War-era setting of “Skull Island.” In a stylistic sense, it’s also a battle between storytelling with an emotional connection and monster-moviemaking at its most reductive: loud, effects-laden stimulation for the retina, but not much brain or heart.
