I was not to know that so many of the names that drew me to the project would be removed from the film pretty early on – a device that has impact for sure, but doesn't seem particularly brave since one suspects that the reason people like Cranston got onboard was that they were promised a lot for only relatively small parts. The film does try to create a human story to ground the audience and it casts wisely with Cranston, Binoche, Watanabe, Hawkins and others – all people who have a good presence in front of the camera. That said, I had heard negative things and I did approach it with low expectations because after all, it is just a Godzilla movie. This suggested that perhaps there would be more to it than just effects and big money shots. With Godzilla I will admit I was tempted to join for the spectacle because in addition to this the film had the appeal of quite a starry cast list in addition to being from Gareth Edwards, the man who famously made Monsters in his bedroom and on the fly.

This usually sees me picking up with such films when they are cheaper to get on rental and just watch in my own home. I'd settle for just being able to see this one on DVD somewhere.I'm no great fan of summer blockbusters and for sure am resistant to the idea of paying over the odds to sit in a crowded room and be disappointed. Whether or not the original version will ever be released in America remains to be seen. Special effects run the usual gamut from good to ridiculous, and the music is pretty good. Maybe it's the lighting or lack there of, the smoke, or just the dated quality of my VHS tape, but this is a very dark and atmospheric monster on the rampage epic and one that I hold very close to my heart for reasons I can't quite explain. The death of the tramp is also shown in the original version. This version also gives Russians a bad name because they made the Russian commander launch the missile before he died when in the original version he died heroically trying to stop the missile's launching but failed. However, his first name is never used on account of comedian Steve Martin's then hot popularity. The "1985" American version includes scenes of us damned Americans trying to figure out what do and features Raymond Burr reprising his Steve Martin character from the American version of the first film. The Tokyo natives think up all sorts of goofy plans to get rid of Godzilla, one which involves a highly advanced flying tank called Super-X, the other involving the use of birds to activate an often unused portion of Godzilla's brain that resembles a bird's to lead him out of Tokyo and into a volcano, where he remains until the sequel, "Godzilla VS Biollante". Picking up 30 odd years later and ignoring all the films that were made in between, Godzilla returns to trample Tokyo. At least in this movie, Godzilla had the spotlight all to himself. Who knows when we'll get another solo vehicle for the big G? The upcoming Godzilla: Final Wars will apparently feature a total of ten monsters. King Ghidorah, GMK), but this is still a standout entry in the series. I do think that there are several better, faster-paced Godzilla films (Godzilla vs. Godzilla fans often complain about the film's overtly political concerns and somber mood, but I have to disagree with them I like a bit of realism, a bit of credibility. My bottom line for judging SFX is not, "are they realistic?" but "are they fun?", and the shots of Godzilla laying waste to Tokyo are indeed fun. American critics who slammed the film's look were being just a tad intolerant - all foreign films tend to be cheaper than ours, so inferior effects are a given. While the special effects are not quite up to the Hollywood standard, they're still entertaining and reasonably convincing.

So what? After about twenty lurid, cheap movies that involved Godzilla in mortal combat with rubberized foes, it was nice to see him get back to menacing basics here. No, Godzilla doesn't fight with other creatures. Americans yawned or laughed this off the screen, for the most part, but if you dig Godzilla you should dig this, his most respectable film since the 1954 original.

Godzilla returns in a (somewhat) serious vehicle with a (somewhat) big budget. Reviewed by dr_foreman N/A unfairly maligned
