The most perfect "Godzilla" yet

Rogelio 2022-04-19 09:03:08

"True Godzilla" is the most perfect tribute to version 54, whether it is Godzilla itself or the performance of "nuclear" elements.

Higuchi Shinji and Anno Hideaki have been special souls for decades, knowing that this is the Godzilla that really belongs to Japan. Cut-like precision editing, restrained scenes, masochistic shots. Shiro Herono's music is like the gospel of the coming, which makes people tremble. The special quality of Godzilla is really good, and the Tokyo night battle scene is desperate and profound. (By the way, the CG capture of this version of Godzilla is Nomura Mansai.)

One of the top ten Japanese movies this year.

However, whether it is "nuclear element", "special photo", "government cabinet", "monster", the Japanese label is too heavy. This is a movie that is too Japanese, and may not necessarily be suitable for filmmakers from other countries.

Interestingly, Shinzo Abe ridiculed "Godzilla" at the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Film Festival, "My wife strongly recommends that movie in which both the Deputy Chief of Staff and I were killed in action."

    When Godzilla was furious, he really saw the end of the world... The fire in his mouth, the lightsabers on his back, shooting the human world in seconds, the American King Kong is nothing... Looking at the super large screen of the new colorful clouds in the sky, it was so refreshing to be speechless.

    Exceeded expectations, very beautiful! Although there is a lot of irony, neither the human side nor the new sauce are annoying. Finally, praise the handsome new sauce when zooming in.
