After discovering the existence of huge, ancient monsters like Godzilla, crypto-zoological agency Monarch has has developed a way to communicate with the creatures, thanks to Dr. Emma Russell (Vera Farmiga). But when Dr. Russell and her daughter, Madison (Millie Bobby Brown), are kidnapped by people who want to use the technology, Monarch sends a rescue party that includes Dr. Russell's ex-husband/f ellow scientist, Mark (Kyle Chandler).
