GODZILLA MINUS ONE (2023) MOVIE REACTION - SURPASSED OUR EXPECTATIONS - FIRST TIME WATCHING - REVIEW
9,923Welcome to our first-time watching as we react to Godzilla Minus One (2023).
Godzilla Minus One is a 2023 Japanese epic/kaiju film written, directed, and with visual effects by Takashi Yamazaki. It is also produced by Toho Studios and ever since we saw what they did with Shin Godzilla we've been more than excited to see what else they could come up with.
In this film, Japan has barely recovered from the Second World War when a gigantic peril emerges off the coast of Tokyo. Koichi, a deserter traumatized by his first confrontation with Godzilla, sees this as an opportunity to redeem his conduct during the war.
The film stars Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe, Yuki Yamada, Munetaka Aoki, Hidetaka Yoshioka, Sakura Ando and Kuranosuke Sasaki. Set in postwar Japan, it follows a former kamikaze pilot suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder after encountering a giant monster known as "Godzilla".
Godzilla Minus One gave us everything we ever wanted from a Godzilla film packed into one. The human element is phenomenal, the themes of redemption and fighting to live instead of to die are incredibly layered and are apparent throughout the entirety of the film. Godzilla the main star itself is probably the scariest, most destructive, meanest iteration we've seen yet. I mean c'mon...Have you seen that atomic breath sequence!?
We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and discussions as we delve into the film's potential impact on Kaiju movies, its nods to Godzilla's storied legacy From the earth-shaking clashes to the awe-inspiring roars there is a lot of elements in this movie that work and they work well. Stay until the end for our review!
