Godzilla
The upside to a giant lizard is that one day its fossilized bones will generate massive amounts of crude oil.
Unfortunately, the rampaging reptile in this sci-fi movie is far from petrifaction.
Fifteen years after his mother (Juliette Binoche) was killed in a nuclear power plant accident, Lt. Ford (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) returns to the contaminated site to help his father (Bryan Cranston) expose a military cover-up involving Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organisms.
Their suspicious are later confirmed when a winged MUTO hatches from its cocoon and attacks Hawaii.
Now humanities only hope lies in a cold-blooded MUTO the US army has been secretly bombing for 60 years.
With a faithful Godzilla design and monster battles galore, this modernization of the Japanese fire-breather pummels previous American efforts with ease.
However, that doesn't prevent this update from being tedious and disjointed at times.
Incidentally, in Japan anyone over 6-feet tall is called Godzilla.
