Talk:King Kong vs. Godzilla

My Thoughts: King Kong vs Godzilla
The concept alone is enough to adore this film: King Kong and Godzilla, arguably the two most famous movie monsters ever going head to head with Japan caught in the middle.

While the acting is about what you'd expect from an early 60's Japanese creature feature, the human characters are still likable and never take up too much screen time, with the focus always staying on Kong and Goji.

The monster scenes are just classic: Goji busting out of an iceberg, Kong fighting a giant octopus, Godzilla stomping armies... Heck, you even see Kong getting drunk. Where else are you gonna see that? And it all culminates with an epic kaiju grand slam of East vs West. Easily one of the greatest monster brawls ever.

Granted, there are some things that could've been improved: The Kong costume is pretty hard to look at, but acceptable for the time period. The added American scenes also tend to contradict the earlier films, while the remnants of the earlier Godzilla vs Frankenstein plot make things just downright confusing; how does Kong draw strength from electricity, and how does the UN scientist know this fact before it ever happens?

Is it nonsensical at times? Yes. Is it cheesy as all getout? Most definitely, but that just adds to the charm. (Toa Hydros (talk) 06:14, September 4, 2016 (UTC))
