Godzilla (2014)
Directed by Gareth
Edwards this reboot of the popular monster franchise stars Aaron
Taylor-Johnson, Ken Watanabe, Bryan Cranston and Elizabeth Olsen. An
American military officer heads to Japan to find his father who
thinks that there is a conspiracy to cover up what caused a nuclear
meltdown.
There is a lot that
this film does not do such as have any characters of interest but it
does deliver on the prerequisite of plenty of monster inspired
destruction. Unlike the original film there is no real depth here but
I suppose it does have some enjoyable moments even if the attempts to
force Americanization on what is clearly a Japanese story is slightly
awkward in places. The special effects are clearly just a CGI
extravaganza and disappointingly despite having three great actresses
cast all there parts combined don't add up to a decent role.
3/5
