The movie Godzilla vs Kong: The New Empire is less about the big showdown between the two ancient beasts and more focused on convoluted exposition and explanations, with bouts of noisy, crashing, rampaging blows. The screenplay by Terry Rossio, Simon Barrett, and Jeremy Slater is filled with excessive exposition, introducing returning players like Dr. Ilene Andrews and her adopted daughter, Jia. Godzilla is seeking nuclear energy sources for an unknown reason, while Kong behaves strangely, even leaving his habitat to get treatment for a sore tooth.
