Reviews

henrypaulmerklein This franchise is back from the undead, but this time it's alive and well.

russellian The movie throws you into the action and hangs on tight but lets you rest for a while. The movie is affective in showing you the actual economic destruction a Kaiju assault could bring.

poe-48833 SHIN GODZILLA, we're told, (now) translates as "god incarnate." Uh-huh. Too bad we don't get to see enough of this new (shin) "god incarnate" in action to judge for ourselves... Like the lousy ameriKan version of just a couple of years ago, this entry boasts some great but all too brief scenes of destruction; this version also unfortunately bogs down like said ameriKan version in the minutia of government and military behind-the-scenes "readiness." There are at least five minutes of good action in this two-hour debacle. The rest, as they say, is for the f---ing birds...

nrice-07604 Ever wanted to see a Godzilla movie that's actually a bunch of awfully- dubbed business people debating and has Godzilla, like, every now and then? Look no further than Shin! My hopes were high for this film. After Legendary's awesome 2014 rendition of Godzilla, I figured this would be just as good, if not, better. I mean, it's made by Toho, the same people who made Godzilla. So that means it's good, riiiiiight? Wrong. I was highly disappointed. First off, there's barely ANY Godzilla in it. I literally counted 8-9 minutes. That's more pathetic than Legendary's 15-minute maximum. Next, the dialogue is absolutely trashy. Not to mention, Godzilla has the most half-baked backstory in existence- its a bunch of micro-organisms that bunched together! C'mon! WE want GODZILLA for crying out loud, not freakin' Destoroyah! Godzilla goes through several evolution stages, which is an incredibly weird way to live, and half the time looks like a malformed lizard fetus. Godzilla's atomic breath is...purple. Seriously? Finally this film was so overrated when it came out. You say one wrong word about it, and the even-worser Godzilla fandom goes bats**t crazy! All in all, a miserable flop and a disappointing turning point for Toho. They tried to capture the dark tone of the original and failed, and it ended up looking terrible. Just wait for Legendary to finish up Fathom and KKvG, it'll be far worth your time and money.
