A newspaper and television station funded by a pharmaceutical company want a sensation, which happens to be the discovery of King Kong on an island. He is captured and brought to Japan, where he escapes from captivity and battles Godzilla.
As a war between humankind and monstrous sea creatures wages on, a former pilot and a trainee are paired up to drive a seemingly obsolete special weapon in a desperate effort to save the world from the apocalypse.
The new story follows the heroic efforts of the crypto-zoological agency Monarch as its members face off against a battery of god sized monsters, including the mighty Godzilla, who collides with Mothra, Rodan, and his ultimate nemesis, the three headed King Ghidorah. When these ancient superspecies, thought to be mere myths, rise again, they all vie for supremacy, leaving humanity's very existence hanging in the balance.
The Monarch organization is named after the Monarch butterfly. Its emblem features a butterfly-shaped symbol. This symbol is found on the helicopter in the beginning of Godzilla (2014). See more »
Goofs
The relative sizes of monsters and aircraft change wildly during the film. Rodan can crush jet fighters with his feet because they are slightly larger than his toes. But when he's reaching toward the enormous flying ship Argo, which is giant compared to a mere jet, it is barely bigger than Rodan's feet. In the Antarctic scene, an Osprey helicopter is slightly larger than one of Ghidorah's heads. Later the Argo ship, which is so big that it can easily carry multiple Ospreys, is dwarfed by Ghidorah's heads. See more »

Crazy Credits
SPOILER: Part of the closing credits are a montage of Monarch records alongside news records covering the aftermath of the Titans' rising. Near the end of the credits, there are various records focusing on Skull Island, Kong's home; this leads into Godzilla vs. Kong (2021). See more »
Great and Amazing battles/fights among giant monsters, epic and spectacular ones, what everybody was waiting for, if you want to enjoy good monsters and CGI this is you movie, go watch it on the best screen 8.5/10... But the plot is weak, people are stupid and make meaningless decisions. People's behavior is absurd, with a lot of boring drama that nobody cares, in addition the actors who are supposed to be the main ones have no time on screen. A Total disappointment.
