Review of Godzilla

Godzilla (2014)
9/10
Stunning images, engaging story and HUGE kaijus
14 April 2021
I watched the other movies first (King of monsters and Godzilla vs King Kong) and I found this one way better. The human's aren't annoying, they participate of the plot and they slowly uncover the story (they aren't just there to make geek jokes or say obvious things, in fact I don't remember them joking) and make the kaijus seem huge and scary, instead of the city looking small.

Due to the critics I had heard before I thought I wouldn't see Godzilla in this one, but he just shows up late (after 1h) and it is epic. He might not be in focus all the time, but you also have a lot of camera time of the other kaijus, you don't miss the monsters.

You get to see some gorgeous scenes like one falling through the clouds and the musis is perfect.
