This movie has a excellent plot and excellent acting. The story was good and the script believable showing how real people react with fear to the incomprehensible. It leaves all Hollywood superficial and cliched versions far behind.
Godzilla is an analogy of the horrors of nuclear war and how the destructive urges of mankind unleashes massive suffering on the itself. The subplot of government ineptitude and denial especially in a country emerging from a military dictatorship is a subplot of how autocratic regimes always fail the people and why it is often up to individuals to assume leadership and innovation: a very big problem in modern day Japan with a paternal and conservative culture that is unwilling to face social issues that have been present for decades and which are now of deep concern.
