Is Godzilla Minus One PEAK Cinema?

Godzilla Minus One, the latest Japanese Godzilla film, recently hit theaters and it has made quite the impression. People from all walks of life are not only calling it one of the best Godzilla films ever... but also one of the best films of the year. The latter sentiment is an insanely interesting reaction for a Godzilla film in the same year that saw films from cinematic legends like Christopher Nolan, Martin Scorsese, and Hayao Miyazaki. So here we'll take a close look at director Takashi Yamazaki's bold new imagining of the king of the monsters and how it took the world by storm.

[@kh884488]

I really preferred G-1 to Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer had a great and nuanced character study, but I didn't like the flow of that film. There was too much constant plot exposition, flashbacks and flash-forwards without a few seconds for the audience to reflect. In short, it was tiring to watch. The flow and rhythm of G-1 made it more enjoyable to watch.

[@kaikawanao]

Watched with a friend that hadn't seen a Godzilla film before. She cried at the ending; glad I finally got her to see that Toku films aren't just silly monster movies.

[@100PercentEarl]

I honestly didn't have a favorite Godzilla film until I saw Minus One. The reason I love Minus One is because of the human story and the sense of scale with Godzilla. The action scenes were tense and awesome while the human drama was thoughtful and heartfelt. I'm really glad Minus One is getting the success it deserves.

[@tikhongilson3770]

The only Godzilla movie that comes close to Minus One is GMK. That movie at least gives the big fella a reason to attack Japan.

[@Tin13175]

Gojira also had a reason to attack humanity. He was horribly mutated from the atomic bomb exposure so he took his anger and rage out on humanity.

As a long time Godzilla fan since the 80's, I can honestly say Minus One is hands down the best Godzilla movie ever, second/equal only to the original 1954 movie.

[@magma_fire_bagwan]

Just a week or so before this movie came out, I tried to OD but failed.. While I know simple overdosing and surviving a whole-ass war are COMPLETELY different, this movie still resonated with me absurdly, seeing Koichi going from wanting to live, being ready to die, and wanting to live all over again. This movie will definitely always be a part of me solely for that, let alone how good it was.

[@Peasham]

I've seen so many people asserting that this movie is just apolitical entertainment, and that that somehow makes it better than Hollywood movies, and I'm just like.. that's such a disrespectful disservice to this movie and its message. The entire premise is built off the back of a sociopolitical criticism of Japan that not only still applies to it, but to damn near every other country as well, and it's frankly infinitely more political than any movie I can see that's currently in theaters, and that's a GOOD thing.

[@VincentMelo-lv4ye]

Hehe funni lil lizar man

[@tau-5794]

It's political, but unlike Hollywood movies it's more about the politics of military, government, and civilian affairs, which are fairly universal, if somewhat more specific to Japan in this case. Western films are not about universal political themes, they are just blockbusters that needlessly inject 21st century identity politics.

[@Peasham]

@@tau-5794 A country's specific policies present in no other countries are universal, yet themes regarding human identity, present everywhere, are not. How were you not embarrassed to post this so confidently?

[@FairyFarron]

​@@Peasham No it's true, the anti-war notations in this film and their view on their government due to the war is a more universal sentiment to anyone who can think for themselves or know history. Hollywood keeps throwing in these modern ideas that only appeal to select people yet they keep wanting to hammer it on everyone and it's woefully apparent. This movie has a message but it is one that everyone can appreciate as it calls on more natural human values with a background people are aware of being post WW2.

[@Peasham]

@@FairyFarron The idea that the Japanese government exclusively is bad is by no means a universal idea, I'm sorry, whereas identities are universal, every single person has one. The characters of this movie also have identities that are vital to the movie and its story, if their identities were different this story would cease to function entirely, as it's also a mockery of Americans, white people, who de facto soft-colonized Japan in 1947 yet were completely unwilling to help them in any particular way. The vast majority of people cannot relate to being Asians who are colonized by the west, nor can they relate to having PTSD, nor can they relate to not marrying someone who's practically begging for it. Practically nothing in this movie is relatable to anyone outside of Japan, yet that doesn't stop it from being an excellent movie that makes you care for its characters. I wonder how that works.

[@mrgodzillaraptors8632]

This has to be my favorite film currently.

[@billlange9408]

Loved the callback to Raymond Burr's speech at the end of 1985. That's actually my favorite G film. All the solo Toho Godzilla films have had an anti government slant to them and were in response to actions (or inactions) of the Japanese government. I feel that Return of Godzilla in particular does this in a much more subtle way than 1954, Shin, or GMO. It was also the first Godzilla film I ever saw, so it holds a special place in my heart and will likely always be my favorite. Having said that, I feel that GMO is the best G film ever made. Even more than the original, and I know that some folks would consider that to be blasphemous. I love the original film and it's a cinematic masterpiece and captured the fear and trepidation of the Japanese people not even a decade after WW2. GMO is a very similar setup, but focuses more on the people that were affected and how they responded to the war and what followed. The fact that it was a civilian force that chooses to end Godzilla means so much. These people's lives are in ruin. Literally for some, and they find the strength to defend their country from this overwhelming threat. We seldom see the direct aftermath of WW2 on the Japanese in Wester cinema. The Japanese people were a victim of their own government as well as of the Allied forces and this film doesn't shy away from showing that. The human characters were written so well I would watch a film of just them in the rebuilding of Japan after the war. There have been a few human characters over the 70 years that I've thought stood above the rest but somehow this entire cast did. Great video. I'm glad the algorithm blessed me with it today.

[@moviedudexd5579]

I saw Godzilla Minus One in theaters and is a masterpiece. I'd say its honestly on the pair and equal to the 54 movie and above Shin (Shin is not something I would to casual viewers due its very particular style of film making). I would recommend Minus One to any casual viewer who wants to experience the 54 film but don't like 50s styled film making.

[@MattMcIrvin]

Until now, my favorite Godzilla film was Honda's original--it was a revelation when I saw the original Japanese cut (no Raymond Burr) at the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge. I had the realization that this whole series of often goofy movies had started with a film of stature that wasn't afraid to be utterly bleak and raise impossible human dilemmas. Some of the subsequent Toho films, such as Godzilla vs. Destoroyah and GMK: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, seemed to be grasping for that level of gravitas and not quite getting there. (I have not seen Shin Godzilla, so that might well have done better.) Now, though, I do think the 1954 Godzilla has at least an equal.

[@insanitypepper1740]

I've seen it 4 times in the US. The musical score is one of the best I've ever heard in a film. It's up there with The Shining musical score.

[@whalehands4779]

I think it'll be as important to the film industry as Gojira was. This movie is like they grabbed Ishiro Honda from the past and said "Direct your movie, but use this equipment and technology!" The score of the movie was one of my favorite elements. It's just as good as Shin G. This movie better win some awards. Can you imagine if Yamazaki directed a Star Wars movie?!

[@farraribeats]

Having seen all the Godzilla films this one is by far the best in the series IMO. I know it's CGI and doesn't use the traditional suits that made the series famous but this film is amazing and we finally have a good Goji movie with interesting characters that make the story interesting without Goji on screen and care a lot about them. One of the best theater experiences I've ever had this movie is honestly a top 5 of all time for me I like it that much. What they were able to achieve with such a low budget really puts Hollywood to shame.

As much as I love GMK, this has probably dethroned it as my favorite Godzilla film and also is a Godzilla film I would gladly show to non-kaiju friends. What a great film.

[@metalhellspawn]

Just saw it a second time in theaters tonight, easily my movie of the year and one of the best in the series. Still need to let it sit with me before I determine where it would fall though. As for my favorite, I have to go with GMK. While it has some flaws like the heroic monsters dying then getting back up a few too many times, it's overall a blast. When people ask me what's a good Godzilla film to start with, I either recc that or the 2014 reboot usually. It's the movie even non-Kaiju fan friends of mine have enjoyed immensely as well. I would say before Minus One it was the scariest Goji.

I mean...I'm not hypnotized by Minus One's success like so many others. No one seems to admit that the best CG was in the trailers. Everything else in the movie is wonky at best.
