Minority Mindset

Worldbreaker tells the story of a father and daughter struggling to survive after monstrous creatures emerge from underground and destroy much of the world, while their mother fights against the invasion. The story shares similarities with films like A Quiet Place and Logan, and while it effectively conveys emotional depth, it doesn’t quite build enough tension to fully engage the audience.

The movie unfolds in chapters, beginning with Gracie, a young girl who has become silent after her father’s death. The family struggles to connect, both due to their grief and the challenges of different cultures. Gracie’s grandmother, a Chinese immigrant who only speaks Mandarin, tries to help Gracie cope by teaching her traditional prayers for the deceased. Meanwhile, Gracie’s sister, Emily, is Vietnamese and was raised by white parents, adding another layer of disconnection. This fragmented family dynamic is reflected in the film’s storytelling, which shows events repeatedly from various characters’ points of view.

This is the fourth time the character has been portrayed on screen, following previous movies like Kiss the Girls and Along Came a Spider, as well as the film Alex Cross. Aldis Hodge will return to play the role, bringing his own style to the show. Here’s a sneak peek at what viewers can expect in Season 2.

Even though the team-up movies between Godzilla and Kong have done well, fans still want to see individual movies focusing on each monster. Godzilla has a lot of established enemies that could be used in new films, thanks to licensing from Toho. However, Kong has more opportunity for exciting new stories with original monsters like the Skar King or Skull Devil, rather than just pitting him against well-known foes like Gigan, Hedorah, or Titanosaurus.
