Shin Godzilla having commentary baked into it that metaphorically parallels the monster is fundamentally more interesting, on top of the fact that it's even less convoluted and contrived. ...

If the original 1954 Godzilla was about Japan in the wake of "post War" destruction, then SHIN GODZILLA (シン・ゴジラ aka Godzilla Resurgence) is about the burden of seven decades under that black spot in history.Of course, the devastation and response to the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami and subsequent Fukushima nuclear disaster serves as inspiration for the action (or lack

Shin Godzilla is certainly what it claims to be: a resurgence. Executed with verbal fury and passion, the film delights as a quirky political piece that just so happens to feature a 100-story monster at the center of it. The action set pieces, too, are spectacles, although to a lesser degree than one might expect.

"Shin Godzilla" is, in that sense, about damage control. There are singular heroes, like Disaster Prevention bureau analyst/leader Yaguchi (Hiroki Hasegawa) and consulting biologist Ogashira (Mikako Ichikawa).But for the most part the film's human-driven segments are walls of dialogue/consultation between various superintendents, supervisory committees, ministers, scientists, bureau chiefs and

Review: Shin Godzilla (Japan 2016) Posted on April 4, 2017 by David As a Godzilla fan of the old school, I've always loathed the occasional American attempts at the Big G - whether the truly awful Matthew Broderick version or the decent-monster-movie-but-in-no-way-Godzilla attempt by Gareth Edwards from 2014 - but I think I've had the

Review: Shin Godzilla (2016) January 25, 2018 Chuck Ransford Reviews. When legendary Japanese film company Toho announced in 2014 that it was going to be making a brand new domestic Godzilla film, I was beyond excited. At that time I was still a relatively new fan of the giant monster from the Land of the Rising Sun, but after seeing (and being

Cool cool cool cool COOL!!! I don't think anything has ever gotten me more fired up than the use of the drum music from Evangelion in this film. And they keep adding piano, percussion and multiple guitars to it and it's AAAAAAA 😘👌🏻 Shin Godzilla is the modern kaiju movie we've been asking for since the 90's. We get an incredible looking, constantly evolving monster, realistic

While "Godzilla" 2014 may not be a seminal Godzilla movie, at least it is thoughtfully plotted as a cinematic story. The thought of sitting sullenly through "Shin Godzilla" again only makes the kid in me sigh. NOTE: The film's Japanese title is "Shin Gojira." The alternate English title is "Godzilla Resurgence." Review Score: 50

The 2014 Godzilla production by Legendary was the second attempt at creating a western version of the monster, and was successful. I was mostly satisfied with it, but it still didn't feel like a real Godzilla movie. Only Toho can produce that indescribable feeling, and I got that feeling watching their latest entry in the long-running franchise.

This is a remake of Gojira, but with environmental hazards in the fore front. Some else commented that the human characters are bland and "cogs in the machine" and that's the point. Godzillia isn't defeated by one man with a fictional super weapon. Godzilla is beaten by the hardworking and tenacious Japanese people.

Shin Godzilla (2016) is horrifying. Discussion. I'm not a Godzilla maniac - in fact, this is the first Japanese Godzilla film I've watched - so from the perspective of an outsider this movie was incredible. All of Godzilla's forms are terrifying in a primal way. The effects and the cinematography are so well done that everything feels hyper

This really underscores the fact that in Shin Godzilla, just as with the original 1954 Gojira film, it is science and brains that defeat the monster, not the army or brute force alone. The other scene and music that I want to discuss, which is straight up Evangelion, is a cue called on the soundtrack release "Who Will Know (24_Biglsow

Anything that claims to be official work of any form past 5 is fan made bullshit. In "The Art of Shin Godzilla", all of the concept art shown in the art book that resemble a humanoid design is merely concept art of 5th Form (the figures that reach toward the sky from Shin's tail at the end of the film).
