Godzilla 2014 - The Mindset You Should Have
11 years ago
Note: Firstly I will try and keep this as spoiler free as possible, I will not be discussing plot or characters.
I just saw the new Godzilla movie just now and I am just too hyped up now to give you a full analytical review but I want to give some of you fellow macros a guide to what mindset you should be when sitting down to seeing it.
First off, it is good, very good and a far superior attempt than the previous American 1998 rendition. The film is better written, better acted and better presented than the old film and I will also add that you can feel this film trying to keep true to canon.
What you should not expect is Pacific Rim, there is a lot more time spent on build-up which is around 70% of the film but, and this is a big but, the 30% action is incredibly awe inspiring. Naturally the film will revolve around a human element to give the audience something to relate towards but the human characters are pretty well done.

I loved Godzilla, the character in the first quarter, and the (REDACTED for spoilers) causing destruction in this movie, but the rest of the movie, the "actual" main character ( *SPOILERS*
And the far too many scenes with sodding children in em!)... Just left me, meh...http://i.imgur.com/GLBNg45.jpg

And even with Matthew "that's a lotta fish" Broderic, I too liked the other American film. Seemed to have much more of that "plot is everywhere" that most 80s and 90s films had. These days, it's more to hell with plot, look at our 1080p cgi! Oooo.... (Though, I tend to think of that zilla as just a different giant lizard, instead of Godzilla)
