GazerRise Fantastic!
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
crimsontercel After the disappointment of the '98 Godzilla, you'll naturally have doubts about a new American Godzilla movie. Cast those doubts aside. Godzilla (2014) handles all the monster movie tropes correctly and the result is a great addition to the lineage of the King of the Monsters.First, nobody's favorite part of a monster movie is watching the humans talk to each other. This movie is no exception, but the characters aren't annoying or nearly as forgettable as other monster movies' humans. Even after Bryan Cranston's character dies, the characters' story remains followable and interesting.As for the monsters themselves, their roles are handled perfectly. Throughout the film, the monsters' presence is shown very sparingly, giving the creatures the air of mystery that causes you to regard them as titans, not just big things that destroy stuff. They are very rarely shown in their entirety for whole shots until the finale, making their appearances all the more mystical and powerful.One thing I think is noteworthy is that the film features two monsters that are entirely new to the franchise. These monsters, M.U.T.O.s, are terrifying and interesting. Additionally, they serve as the antagonists, giving Godzilla the role of protector of earth; a role that the uninitiated may not know he frequents.All in all, Godzilla (2014) is everything you want in this kind of monster movie. This is a great introduction to the franchise as well as a respectable American adaptation for long time fans.
rusnr Just sit back and enjoy it. Don't over think it, and you'll have fun.
chrisbryant-82317 This film is the best drinking game. I shan't lie, me and my girlfriend got pissed watching this. Every time there is a cliche. Drink. Every time 'Sensei' pull the same face. Drink. Every time a child is used as emotional blackmail to make you feel any kind of emotion other than tooth pulling lameness. Drink. Just watch it with people with the sole intention of wasting the evening with intoxication. it'll pass the pain of it. No hard drugs though kids. All in all it was great. loved it.P.s. I'm still quite drunk.
drystyx Hard to believe that a Godzilla movie could be dull, but this is dull. The production team makes the mistake of modern movie making. They try to confuse the audience with a bunch of special effects that make you feel the headache of an annoying arcade or a goofy casino full of those annoying lights flashing over and over. Pretty much everything is contrived for the sake of what little the writer and director have in mind. We never feel we're there. We only feel we're in the presence of people making a movie, and that's a poor sign. If you can stay awake for the first two hundred years of this movie (it will seem like two hundred years), you'll finally see a monster. The biggest problem is we just get the same characters over and over. Hollywood thinks all men have to be married with families, or they're worthless garbage. Again and again, we are alienated by Hollywood "superiority" complexes. Not pathetic, but this movie is tedious and annoying.
