GODZILLA! THE KINGS OF MONSTERS IS BACK!!!!!
Godzilla stars Aaron Taylor Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Ken Watanabe, David Strathern, Sally Hawkins, and Bryan Cranston. Now I know what your thinking. Your thinking " Is this going to be as bad as the first one?" The answer is a blissful NO! Its pretty cool. Now heres the story.
Joe Brody( Bryan Cranston) survivor of a family tradgedy, doubts the government when they tell him it was a natural disaster that kills his wife. Joe believes it was a monster and is eager to investigate. He gets his son ( Played by Kick-Ass himself Aaron Taylor Johnson) to help him. Discovering that there was actually TWO monsters, they find themselves helping the Government in trying to stop these monsters from destroying the world. Along the way they meet a doctor ( played by Ken Watanabe) and they discover the monster Godzilla has been protecting humans all along. In fact the third act of the film is where Godzilla really shines. All the performances are great. The pace of the film is ok. The first act being the slowest. I only have one other complaint. The film is titled Godzilla yet we don't see him really till the last third of the movie.When he gets there its pretty awesome but I wish it hadn't taken an hour and a half to get there. The cinematography is is good and that really pays off during the action scenes as they are filmed really well.
The Verdict
It may not be perfect, but its a fun ride with a first rate ending. I give it a solid B+.
