Exciting to the End

Rating: 8/10 (26 April 2015)

Really quite exciting, Godzilla is interestingly emotional and political in its approach to the generic monster movie genre. The once fresh-faced Aaron Taylor-Johnson is back and hardened to the ways of the world as he attempts to avoid the clutches of a terrifying beast that begins to rampage across the city as the creature attempts to breed. Humanity's last hope rests on Godzilla, who seems to do more damage than good, but nevertheless saves the day...more or less. What I didn't like about the film was that they decided to include the increasingly boring plot of a man attempting to reunite with his family through some kind of pandemic, similar to World War Z.
