Godzilla started from the Philippines in 1999, where scientists Ichiro Serizawa with assistants probe a collapsed mine. They discovered a giant cave. It seemed have a huge creature came out of here and headed straight out to sea. A later time, near Tokyo of Japan, an earthquake collapsed Janjira nuclear power plant, leading to tragedy for Professor Joe Brodys family. 15 years later, Joe was still haunted by tragedy in the past. He had an illegal intrusion the power plant area isolated to investigate but he failed. His son, Brody Ford, an UXO clearance expert of the military, were from the US to Japan to guarantee his father. However, the reunion between father and son became the next exploration trip into the forbidden land. What they found was beyond their imagination…
Godzilla handles everything the military hurls at him: ships, guns, planes, rockets, even a squadron of HALO paratroopers. The only thing that can cut him down to size is being relegated to a supporting role in his very own movie.
Olive Oyl once sang a love song about Bluto. The refrain was, 'He's... laaaarge.' And there you have Godzilla in a nutshell. He's large, and the movie's largely a crashing bore.
'Godzilla' doesn't feel cynical; there's a sense of joy to the picture, of honest-to-God fun, which separates it from many of its summer movie brethren.
We're here to see the film's leading lizard, who is pretty gorgeously realized by an army of digitizers, even if he seems just a bit-player in his own movie for the first hour or so.
In a studio system that so heavily relies on playing all their cards at once, Edwards' restraint is half the fun -- the other half being the fully-satisfying climax.
