There are MAJOR spoilers below for Godzilla: King of the Monsters, so please proceed with caution!

“It starts off with footage of destruction and storms around the world while Admiral Stenz is talking. Then we cut to Dr Emma Russel as she is trying to free King Ghidorah. She causes some explosion and Ghidorah starts moving, she then gets on a plane and taps a screen which plays a sound that makes King Ghidorah come out of the ice. Then King Ghidorah starts killing the people around him, he even uses his gravity beams on people its crazy. Next we see Godzilla come out of the water to confront King Ghidorah, it then skips to footage of Rodan fighting some jets and then actually eating someone. Rodan also fights Mothra for a brief second and then it shows more scenes of the titans that we have seen and it ends off with a short clip of Burning Godzilla’s face, his eyes are glowing orange.”

The synopsis for Godzilla: King of the Monsters reads as such, “The new story follows the heroic efforts of the cryptozoological 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 human Element

The monsters — and their epic battles that are partially inspired by the Bible’s Book of Revelation — might be the star of the show, but that doesn’t mean that the human characters are irrelevant.

“There’s a strong family story,” Dougherty said, which involves the dynamic between Dr. Mark Russell (Kyle Chandler), Dr. Emma Russell (Vera Farmiga), and their daughter Madison (Millie Bobby Brown), who are all dealing with the trauma of surviving the 2014 Godzilla attacks. Screenwriters Zach Shields described the story as “Kramer vs. Kramer vs. Godzilla.”

“[The movie] is about our ability to coexist with each other and a higher power,” Shields added.
