Note to Hollywood. This is how to make a movie.
Insanely good film. The acting in this is amazing. The special effects are fantastic. The music score is perfect. This is by a longshot the best release of 2023. And knowing the budget was less than $15 million makes it even more impressive. Deserves all the praise it's been getting and then some.
I'm an old guy who remembers going to the original Godzilla movies in the 60s and this is way better than any of those. I tricked the missus into coming along, and she actually liked it. She reads Bronte, Austen, and Wheately, so you know what a stretch that was for her. Good job. Make more good movies.
This movie was great. Forget The Marvels or Wonka, this is the movie to see.
Emotional and sweeping . Godzilla is terrifying!
This deserves a theatre seat. Best movie of the year, hands down. Only cost $15M. Genius work. Incredible storytelling and visuals. Go see it.
Good story was real close to Draculas latest !
I loved the clever plot that allowed a epic monster film. It's got a $15,000,000 budget, which might not cover catering on a Marvel or Disney pic. The practical special effects are as good as any Marvel, Witta, or ILM CGI. I forgot it was a guy in a suit. The old miniatures looked better than Marvel's CGI. The script had no logic holes, I cared about the excellent but unknown actors. Godzilla was a a thousand metric tons of reckless hate. This Godzilla is an angry bastard.This is how you make a movie. I've seen Oppenheimer, Barbie, and Napoleon, Godzillia Minus 1 is the best picture of the year.
How do you make a Godzilla movie for 15 million, write a kick axx script. Just not expecting layered screen play, oh and Godzilla is a bad guy,, No ambiguous he means we'll , no he's the villain , straight up. It took getting use to , we all want to be his friend, riding on his back,but this is old school,it's us against him. WOW.
I loved Godzilla movies 50 years ago and still love them today. This movie is fantastic and must be seen if you ever were a fan. The setting is post WWII which brings in a human story of a recovering country and people. There is something for everyone, I even shed a few tears.
