Best Godzilla movie! Great cinematic experience!

Rating: 9/10 (23 May 2014)

THE FOLLOWING REVIEW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS! Read with caution. First of all, let me tell you this has nothing to deal with the one in 98, the only thing it shares is the title. So, Godzilla was indeed a great movie, I really had a good time watching it on IMAX. They managed to bring back to life a classic monster from the 1950s. The cast was brilliant, Bryan Cranston did the best job, his acting was very well performed in such believable way. Aaron Taylor-Johnson did good too, although in some parts it was not that much convincing, but I think that's more of a writing issue, it's not really he's fault but still, quite good. As for the main character, he always escaped from disaster "by an inch", this kept happening again and again throughout the movie, it gets a bit less realistic in the story. The storyline was more based on how they were going to kill the monsters, what are they and stuff like that, which was nice, I think the monsters were well developed, especially the MUTOs, Godzilla kinda came as secondary character, but it's still great because you get to see Godzilla in different scenarios and environments, not just the generic city, and that kills the "monster in new york" cliché. It was ironic the fact that in the end of the movie, Godzilla was called a savior of San Francisco, but they were forgetting the fact that Godzilla destroyed all those military boats and jets, and even the Golden Gate bridge, but I understand, if it wasn't for him nobody would have killed the MUTOs, which would have resulted in global disaster. As for the VFX, they were freaking' unbelievable, it looked so good, you really feel the intensity of the battle, it was indeed a great job on the CGI part. I give a 9 out of 10 stars for Godzilla because it's really enjoyable and I really liked it, that's it.
