I felt similarly with Godzilla Minus 1. It was probably overhyped to me prior to sitting down to watch it.

I also had to watch it with my youngest son who can't quite read yet, so had to watch it dubbed (which I'm sure set it back).

I really liked it and thought it was well done. It is kinda overrated because it is a small studio foreign film. It

Nope. It is far more impressive in theaters.

Nope. Best movie of last year. One of the best movies in a long time.

Did you watch it Dubbed or Subtitled?

BYUtka

Subtitled so much better. The dub just throws you off.

Subtitles - I can't watch dubbed.

This! When people describe it as silly I have to wonder how much they paid attention. The characters were well

The makeshift family story was my favorite part of the movie

GSwarriorcoug

Part of the reason he looks like a guy in a suit from the 50's is because the director wanted to honor the original

Well the director succeeded in making his monster look like

It won awards for is special effects and most have commented on how good it looked and how menacing he was.

Chemish, you yourself just said Godzilla looked like a guy in suit from

GSwarriorcoug

The original Godzilla, from 1954, was indeed a guy in a suit. This Godzilla was done in a way to honor the original

Anyone who describes it as a "fun silly popcorn flick" is obviously trolling.

"Expected something like Aliens or Predator"? Now your opinion makes more sense.

I expected it because I'd heard how intense the movie is. And

Loved this movie. Saw it twice in theaters.

RockyBalboa

Loved it. Story-driven movie with post-war Japan/Godzilla as backdrop. Extremely

It was a solid, scrappy underdog movie about underdogs with a nice message about

that opinion is wrong and you are wrong for having it. it was a well done drama and very good effects for the budget

You’ve slammed Godzilla Minus One, Parasite, and Prey all this week. If you’re gonna be that picky a movie watcher,

scootsy

Geeze. Those are all pretty universally liked and Parasite won the Oscar!

Yeah, we need to know what he likes to better assess his opinion. Our maybe he's just hated everything up to this point.

I didn't slam Parasite. I said I liked it didn't love it. I even complimented

I thought Interstellar was pretentious and boring (minus the water scene).

I enjoyed Interstellar way more than Godzilla.
