Shin Godzilla (Godzilla Resurgence) by Toho Pictures is about to unleashed upon the movie-going public in a limited release. (I'm going to see it October 12 with author Peter H. Brothers in Thousand Oaks.)
Alibi.com has posted a review of the movie.
What do they think?
They start off their review with:
It’s hard to keep a good man down. A giant monster? Even harder. So it’s no surprise that “The King of Monsters,” Godzilla, has survived 60-plus years, weathered more than 30 movies and come through countless iterations both on and offscreen. The nuclear fire-breathing lizard has suffered various deaths, resurrections and reboots over the decades, falling into three distinct periods: the classic Showa Era (1954-1975), the Heisei Era (1984 to 1995) and the Millennium Era (1999 to 2004). Big G was also shipped over to America for the abortive 1998 TriStar film (considered by most to be “non-canon”) and the more successful Legendary Pictures version from 2014 (which will continue with 2017’s Kong: Skull Island and come to a head in the proposed Godzilla vs. Kong). This summer, however, Japan’s legendary Toho Studios got back in the game by ushering in yet another new era with the homegrown 2016 reboot Shin Godzilla (known in some English-speaking territories as Godzilla: Resurgence).To read more, go here.
