Godzilla 2014 Vs Cloverfield.

[spukrian]

So, now I'm gonna write a short review.

Godzilla

What's it about: In 1999 the Nuclear Reactor outside Janjira in Japan had a meltdown. Joe Brody was an engineer working at the plant. His wife Sandra was also working there, but didn't make it. Flashforward to the present. Joe is now an unhinged conspiracy theorist, convinced that there is a gigantic cover-up of what actually caused the meltdown. Because the same strange seismic signals that preceded the meltdown has started again... Joe convinces his son, Ford, to go into the quarantined forbidden zone around the reactor to find the truth!

What's good:
+It's a movie about gigantic monsters fighting.
+Bryan Cranston is a great actor. His scenes carry a great emotional weight. I guess this means I need to take a look at Breaking Bad.
+The music is great. The special effects are good and the sound is just oh my...

What's bad:
-Bryan Cranston should've had more screentime.
-The characters of Ford and his wife Elle are a bit flat.
-The Hawaii scene should've been longer... the Las Vegas scene should've been longer...

What I'm unsure about:
*Godzilla isn't an antihero, he's a hero!

Conclusion: The movie is very good, but it doesn't redefine the genre.
