Man, they're all.pretty much neck and neck for me. I have about equal grievances and likes about all of em. Every time I rank them I wind up not agreeing with myself. I can say the best two quality wise are 2014 and Kong: Skull Island for sure. KotM I enjoy despite some deep misunderstandings of the source material, and GvK really was something of a visual marvel and a great time.
Gun to my head:
2014
Skull Island
King of the Monsters
Godzilla vs Kong

Kong Skull Island
KOTM: Despite its flaws I would rank the overall experience the most satisfying to watch. Aside from the beautiful cinematography, the introduction of the classic Toho kaijus, the memorable score from Bear, I love how it evolves Godzilla's powers with interesting concept. The Burning form really seals the deal for me and why I place it above GvK.
GvK: Absolutely satisfying and stunning kaiju fight scenes, great pacing and love the introduction of MechaGodzilla. Didn't really enjoy some of the new characters like Bernie and Josh, they make the movie feel too cheesy. The utter ass whoop Godzilla received from MG did no favor for me to put it on number one either.
Godzilla: Got some really nicely shot, pristine sequences in the franchise for sure but those moments of brilliance is let down by the general slow, dull pacing and uninteresting characters.
KSI: Pretty cool fight scenes, enjoyed the variety of mega faunas in the biome and the pacing is great too. But personally because of Kong's relatively tiny size at the time compared to Godzilla and co, I feel let down by the scale as if it's a kid's project compared to other mainline Monsterverse movies, it's just not on the same level of awesomeness in size and threat level.
All in all I don't hate any of them but there's plenty of room for improvements for sure.
