I like that we can have a somber, thoughtful Godzilla movie that explores the darkness of human nature *and* a big dumb Godzilla movie where the munky fights the lizard *in the same year*.
I admit that I have only seen one movie so far of the MonsterVerse - Kong: Skull Island. And I liked it well enough, so I'll have to start giving them a try. That said, these types of movies have a tendency to cheer me up. Chaotic, silly, massive - all my favorite ingredients. I recall having a rotten day at work years ago and coming home to watch Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. It wasn't considered a good movie, I know, but damn did I have a good time watching giant robots wail on each other.

Really interesting review.
