crassus Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 Before I post a few more books, given the opportunity, and despite overwhelming apathy demand, here's my 1 minute spoiler free review of Godzilla....but first a word about spoilers... A spoiler assumes content that, if revealed, would make a difference to your enjoyment of the movie...I did enjoy the movie, but absolutely nothing happened that, if I had been told in advance, would have caused me to enjoy it less... So this movie is also rated SI, for "Spoiler Immune"! Bottom line is that apocalyptic destruction was good, monsters were good, humans babbling and doing funny things was good. My only complaint was the glorification of Fenway Park as either a) the focal point for the end of the world (possibly valid) or b) as the scene of Godzilla's greatest triumph (certainly not valid, and indeed the most deeply disturbing part of the film). Generally the movie could have been shorter by about 30 minutes, and it sucked that they had to nuke Atlantis. My hope is that this does not adversely effect sales of Sub-Mariner comics. So I would rate it 3.5 stars out of 5. Its bloodless and PC enough for the whole family, and my two Japanese friends loved it. I guess it was nice for a change seeing other people's cities getting destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
