Long Live the King

The best Godzilla movie I’ve seen in 24 years.

And I frakkin’ love Godzilla vs. Destroyah (1995).

So much kaiju goodness in this one, so much more than Godzilla 2014.  And hearing the original theme from Akira Ifukube really made this film that much better.

And ALL THE CALL BACKS to so many classic moments from the 30-film library of Godzilla films made me so freaking happy, my jaw dropped so many times during this film.

All they needed was the Super-X to make this one perfect.  It definitely ranks up among my top 5 Godzilla films.  Maybe even top 3, I’d have to think about that.

The critics talk about lack of plot.  WHEN WAS PLOT EVER A HIGHLIGHT OF A GODZILLA FILM, FFS?

I give this one the highest recommendation possible, for fans of the pre-2000 Godzilla films.  For casual fans, it’s a fun romp, a popcorn flick, officially starting the summer movie season.

I’m gonna see this one again, maybe even in IMAX.
