All 10 episodes of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters ranked from worst to best
4. "The Way Out" - episode 5
"The Way Out" is a wild ride and easily snags the title of the fourth-best episode. It's like rediscovering an old favorite song, but instead of a song, it's just our main guy Godzilla.
This episode revisits the big guy's debut with a fresh lens, showing us that giant monsters aren't just about cool effects - they bring real chaos and heartache. It's a clever throwback that reminds us why we first gasped at Godzilla's might, mixing nostalgia with a solid reality check.
Then there's our lovable, slightly messy trio – Cate, Kentaro, and May – who find themselves in a pickle in Alaska, leading to a plot twist as surprising as finding money in your old jeans. Their personal drama is so tangled up with the Titan threat, and it feels like we're watching a soap opera episode that takes place during a monster attack. And those flashbacks? They're the cherry on top, giving us a haunting look back at pre-Godzilla days and adding layers to Cate’s struggles with guilt and PTSD. This episode is more than just a visual feast, it's like a heart-to-heart chat amidst a monster mash. It balances character depth, action, and mystery, proving why we're all hooked on this series.
