3. Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (2023)

“I’ve enjoyed the Monsterverse movies but the human characters have always been very weak for me. But here, they’re great. It really makes the world lived in and grounded and plausible. Like it makes it seem possible for a world where Godzilla is real could exist,” Redditor edgy_secular_memes said.
