Great movie!

Rating: 10/10 (19 May 2014)

The movie was well done. I appreciate how snippets of the original Godzilla score/music was incorporated all through out this new film. For those who has seen the first Gojira, the sound aspect injected intermittently in G.Edward's version sort of sends out to the viewers a nostalgic feeling of the old film. The storyline though deviated sharply from the original which worked out well. I guess the film-makers felt the need for adjustments for the present era of moviegoers. Popular news sites have written about a sequel. Many commenters are all for another sequel. But for me personally, quality Godzilla movies such as this last one should only come out no less than 10 years at a time to keep the anticipation but mainly that Godzilla is a special gem. Or like a plant that flowers only every so often that stay hidden for a time but when it blooms, it blooms with spectacle. OK, flower and Godzilla doesn't match- I can't find a better comparison but you know what I mean. I had rather wait another 15 years of a really good Godzilla movie than see a B-quality every 2 or 3 years. Godzilla is a majestic and grand figure. In movie history, there's no monster (or whatever you call it) that commands such awe. It deserved every cent of its $160 million budget.
