I highly recommend you go see Godzilla. It is my new favorite movie. I can't talk too much about it, in case you haven't seen it yet, but let's just say it has everything I love in a movie. The composer is a genius, simple as that. He composed and conducted the music, which I like anyway, but he's so gifted. He's pure brilliance! The next Hans Zimmer, only more original.
Seriously, the music is amazing. And then there is the visual director. If he was in the theatre, I would've given a standing ovation. There are so many ways to slip up and make everything cheesy, but there was no cheese on his part. Some scenes were so visionary, it was beautiful. I mean...just...it's hard to even find the right words. He does horror so well. I've seen many horror movies, and there was absolutely nothing ripped from them. Every fight scene, every inkling of suspense and horror was just masterfully done.
Now, I'm not saying the movie is perfect. I could've used more Bryan Cranston - he was basically the only reason I was interested in that movie in the first place. The other actors are not nearly on par with Cranston, some of the scenes are a bit disjointed for my taste - especially in the beginning, and the dialogue between characters could use some work. Also, one must question the logical thinking skills of some of the characters. I guess that could be considered an accurate portrayal because I don't know if anyone would be thinking logically considering what was going on. However, when I looked past these slight annoyances, I completely enjoyed myself.
You should really watch this movie. The end.
