I saw it in Japan and am Japanese. The reason why we like this one is the long lines. This is a more political parody for us some people who live here. Showing a relationships between politicians and bureaucrats,,,,etc. Also, the many scenes I felt as if I had seen it before. That was from the 2011 Japan earthquake, Tsunami and the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. How our government acted. Some of the jokes and parodies can not be translated.So many words are used so in order to catch my native language with so many political terminologies. I needed to see this movie twice. This Godzilla is so enjoyable for even non Godzilla fans in Japan. This film was produced for more domestic market. Without knowing those inside political situations and layers, this Shin Godzilla film would be a bit hard to enjoy it as the original intention.

Aaron It is not asinine. The original one in 1954 started that. But it was very implicitly. The many secens reminded us the moment of Tokyo carpet bombings. And Godzilla was bone becuase H bomb. But they never intended to produce anti American film but anti war film. Godzilla was the ultimate victim besides the victims of people. This one as well. They never explicitly make it as a political film but this Shin Godzilla capitalized on the political situation and its current issues in Japan after the Tsunami and the nuclear facility in Fukushima. If you don't like it, just ignore those layers. I have never seen the subtitle for the film, I do not know how it works. Since so many words are spoken, it would be almost impossible to put everything on the screen. The reason why Shin Godzilla got its popularity beyond the traditional Godzilla fans is becasue the script is intresting. That why I said this movie was produced targeted a domestic market. The same way as a 1954 version was modified to 1956 version for the US market. This one might do better as well if keeps Godzilla secens then drama part could be reproduced to simplify for a pure monster film.

I felt the parodying of politics was a good take on this Godzilla film. It was to the point where it just felt like you were watching a political thriller and Godzilla was just the problem they had to deal with. Replace him with a tsunami, a terrorist attack, or an earthquake and these politicians would most likely have done the exact same thing with all the countless decision making and proposing new bills. It was pretty enjoyable.

I've never watched any Godzilla films but I had to watch Shin Godzilla because it was made by Hideaki Anno with a soundtrack by Shiro Sagisu. As someone with zero experience or knowledge of the other films, it was a horrifying film about the unstoppable and destructive forces of nature and the human effort to survive the worst disasters imaginable. So yes, I would recommend it to people who are not interested in Godzilla.

I love the ending implication, that it’s still Evolving and is creating more Godzilla’s through its tail. It’s a horrifying thought that makes this Godzilla pretty dang threatening.

I loved how they used like 3 different renditions of Evangelion's "Decisive Battle" theme over the film. Anno really wanted to leave his mark on the Godzilla franchise.

The director is Hideaki Anno, famous for Evangelion and this film has a lot of his style in it along with Shirou Sagisu, his friend and great composer of Evangelion and many other great works. Anno is the Tarantino of Japan, he loves violence, blood, over the top action and always includes references of all his previous works, especially Evangelion, and the most prominent one in Shin Godzilla is the track 'EM20', a homage to 'Decisive Battle' of Evangelion. In order to fully appreciate Shin Godzilla and his other works, you'll need to watch every other work he has done before. Besides film references and homages, alot of the cultural context in Shin Godzilla is hard for Western audiences to understand. Anyway this is easily in the top 5 of my favourite Godzilla movies.

He has 4 different forms which no other version has, he has a healing factor where the others don't, and while other Godzillas can only breath radiation from his mouth, Shin can breath radiation from his mouth, back & tail! No other Godzilla can do that! Godzilla Earth is unique as well, with his shock wave abilities and his size of 300m or 900 ft tall.

That's incorrect. Godzilla was 100% cgi in ShinG. There are videos showing exactly how they did it.

Missing an iconic theme is like missing a character.

Not a mention of the huge message of this movie Disappointing

I feel they just didn't get this movie

I heard they're going to make another one next year but it's going to be an anime movie.

The atomic breath scene was my favorite part of the whole movie. Really shows how utterly devastating Godzilla can be in a matter of seconds. Excellent movie.

You guys missed the entire point of the movie

I feel like this movie (and of course the original) is for Godzilla movies what Dr. Strangelove is for war movies. Breathtaking visuals but at the core it´s a tongue-in-cheek parody of a terrible real life event. It doesn´t mock the victims of those real life events but rather the people at the top that cause the events.

You don't know if it's "cooler and better." You haven't even seen the movie yet. Regardless, it's only your opinion if you prefer God Godzilla (James's translation of the title) to the American Godzilla movie released in 2014.

I didn't said it was a bad movie tho :) The 2014 one was pretty good, just not as good or cool Imo, as the older movies (and i guess this one from what ive seen/heard Of course this is just my opinion. I have yet to watch this movie, but i have seen the older ones and they already look/sound/feel better than the 1998?/2014 ones. Thats exactly what James is doing here too, just sharing an opinion. I always liked the asian versions more of Godzilla, and thats coming from a person that doesn't even watch Asian movies all that much.

I saw the film and "shin" actually fits all the meanings god, true, and new. New because it's a reboot, true because it's a Japanese film and also has a plot point I won't spoil. The god is the most interesting though revealed in the final scene OMG it's amazing

In Godzilla Final Wars my favorite part is when Godzilla kills Zilla (1998 Godzilla) lol.

Why didn't he comment on the ending?

Shin Godzilla in 2020 continues to be the best modern Godzilla movie since the original, I guess we'll see how Godzilla vs Kong fares

Glad you guys made this review! Made me go out and watch Shin Godzilla, and wow was it good. The lazer section of the movie was just WOW

I liked the 2014 version. I really don't see the point of making it just like a Toho version, Toho can do that just fine on their own and they are good at it. I like that there are a couple of different versions and styles And I enjoy both of them. (as long as they don't go mental again and make it completely different like the 1998 version). Looking forward to Godzilla King of Monsters and any sequel to Shin Godzilla.

I just saw Shin Godzilla at my local theater. It was UNBELIEVEABLY awesome! I'd heavily recommend it. Thanks for letting us know about it James & Mike!

I agree so many subtitles! I had that exact experience James where I was reading but also looking up to see the actors faces. I still loved the movie though!! Just having a new Godzilla film to see in north american theatres again was awesome. I was just a kid and much different perspective when I saw Godzilla 2000 in 99.

Godzilla-thon #31

I saw it tonight and it was amazing. There was a scene where Godzilla uses his nuclear breath that was so awesome it somehow broke my brain and made me start to tear up. I've never had a reaction like that before.

My favorite Godzilla film. Hands down.

If you guys liked the movie give Evangelion a try, the director did both!

How did you not talk about the final shot?

Shin Godzilla's gruesome-like grotesque aspect makes it unique to the series.

Just saw the new Japanese Godzilla movie in theaters. 10/10. Exceeded my expectations in every way. Being a fan of this franchise since I was a kid there hasn't been a Godzilla movie that matched how great of a film the 1954 version was until this one. If you're a fan of Neon Genesis Evangelion you'll like this movie even more.

I thought it was a mix of animatronics and CG, like Jurassic Park.

They used motion capture and a big puppet and enhanced it with cg I think

Yo James, food for thought, Anno the director basically ripped the plot and quite literally the music from his work on Neon Genesis Evangelion. That composition work you complimented is Shiro Sagisu who not only worked on evangelion, but ported his original song decisive battle which was used in eva to score similar scenes. I think it worked extremely well in this setting and I'm glad you and Mike liked it, but I think it's important to know that the divergence from the typical Godzilla movie comes from the fact that Anno's directorial influence had such a massive effect on the plot direction. The man literally retold the operation to destroy Ramiel, but with Godzilla instead. Thanks for the great videos.

I am frikin' pumped for this. Going premier night on oct.11!!!!

I might get some hate for this, but I actually liked the 2014 American movie. Shin Godzilla was definitely better, but I hope both sides of the franchise are successful.

It’s okay to like stuff, you can’t compare 2014 to the originals. If you’re not a whiny baby who only accepts Toho. It’s not bad. And “Godzilla: King Of The Monsters” has one of the best trailers i’ve ever seen. Kong was also phenomenal. WB cares and understands.

Nice video review guys. Big thing I liked about this was the mention of theme songs/medleys. We all connect to themes and songs and catchy advertising crap. It's a shame that too many movies forego the themes thinking they're worn out, old, etc. Akira Ifukube's themes are so integral to the G films, it wouldn't be the same without them (save a few from Heisei era in which they had new music entirely which ended up being really good).

@DylanRocket

There was only one Heisei Godzilla movie that didn't use an Ifukube theme which was The Return of Godzilla. Biollante and Spacegodzilla both used some Ifukube themes.
