Godzilla Minus One (2024) tribute

This isn’t just one of the greatest Godzilla movies, it’s one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. It’s a love story, a war story, a tale of redemption, the re-thinking of dying for a lost cause, for a government that doesn’t care about you. It’s a great documentary of PTSD. It just happens to have a kaiju complicating the plot.

[@evanmaldonado9799]

It’s definitely the best Godzilla film since the 1954 original. It’s very reminiscent to that movie because Godzilla was brought back to his roots as a metaphor for nuclear destruction and the horrors and traumatic experiences of war, but the people are the main focus and you REALLY feel for them. The acting was so raw and genuine, those scenes with Koichi’s mental breakdowns put me on the verge of tears and same with the scenes where their adopted child Akiko was sobbing, that was just heartbreaking for me, it really shows how horrible of a monster Godzilla was. The scenes with Godzilla were truly astonishing, especially that atomic breath scene, that just left me in awe. This movie really made Godzilla scary again, it was the Godzilla film I’ve been dreaming to see, it’s truly a masterpiece!

@@evanmaldonado9799 agreed. This movie actually had me hating to see Godzilla appear because the story was so strong. I was almost shouting in the theater the guy needed to marry that stunningly beautiful girl and give the baby the family she deserved. I was fighting tears, myself when she was supposedly killed. I couldn’t imagine just how guilty he felt being a kamikaze pilot “returning” from war.

[@revanchists]

The scene where he broke down and thought Noriko and Akiko were just a dream got me. That's one of the most realistic depictions of PTSD I've ever seen

[@prideferret-sb7hi]

As someone who suffers from ptsd myself and who knows way too many people who also suffer from it, I can agree. One of the most realistic depictions of it on screen

[@willrueb9573]

Koichi's roar when Noriko got blown away was absolutely bone chilling. The rawest scream ive ever heard.

[@alfredhernandez9799]

Pure anguish and despair.

[@hopesspirits8754]

"My war isn't over yet" thats honestly one of the most heartbreaking lines ive come across in recent media. A young man being guilty over the fact that he chose to live over the cruel command of a suicide attack now faces a whole new level of guilt because this monster that he thought he couldve stopped wreaked havoc on his new world. No one should feel guilty to live thats just insanely sad. Thats the single line that made me desperately wish that by the end of the movie Godzilla dies and gets sunk to the depths of the ocean where he belongs.

[@Maverick8t88]

Watched this movie this last Sunday. Cried three times. Not even ashamed, because I’m only human. One of the greatest human dramas I’ve ever seen. Update: I’m crying right now watching this video. God, this movie!

The perfect piece, for the Perfect Kaiju Film.

[@adarshsaseendran2199]

They made us fall in love with the human , his family and friends in a Gojira movie. Amazing story. The relief i got when i saw Noriko at the end. His story was not about dying for his country, it was to save his country and live happily in it with the people he love.

[@debX14]

This movie was amazing. Should have got Oscar for the story and acting. Best movie of 2024.

[@alfredhernandez9799]

Sadly, Japan didn't submit it for Best Foreign Film or for Best Movie.

[@Doober43Music]

Never thought a Godzilla movie would make me cry

[@DrInsanity987]

Not only the best film of last year, but Minus One has cemented itself as the best Godzilla film of all time. The original will always be an incredible and influential piece of art and nothing could ever replace it, but Minus One is just that damn amazing. Pure and incredible. Tragic and heartbreaking. Perfection.

[@MaskedRiderChris]

Best Gojira movie of my lifetime, says this lifelong Gojira stan. The score, the acting, the cinematography, the story and plot, and yes, the VFX...anybody who isn't moved by this movie and doesn't understand that a great Gojira movie has human drama in it as well as monster action, I don't know what to tell them. Mr. Kamiki's acting is powerful and you really feel for poor Koichi--in fact, in the theater the first time I watched this? Watching him screaming his head off in the aftermath of the Ginza attack made me say out loud "Somebody PLEASE cut this guy a break," it hit me so hard emotionally. May Toho continue in this vein and keep making it work!

[@Wulfdon]

Cried in the theater. Cried again. Thank you Slyfer2812. You had one job. And you nailed it!

[@jonbaxter2254]

The most human, heart-breaking, sombre portayel of war, PTSD and loss... and it was in a Godzilla movie...

[@YusoCrio]

@@kakkoishonenWdym? I’ve never heard anyone say that Japan was bad. All I hear is people feel sympathy for them which of course is the right thing. No one was bad in the war besides the Nazi’s of our current knowledge.

Everyday, we are getting closer to a movie about Imperial Japan

[@PeterWDawson]

We got a scene dedicated to it in Godzilla vs King Ghidorah back in 1991. Godzilla, pre-mutation, showed up to fight the Americans.

[@KingG3244]

I doubt we will get a true depiction of what imperial Japan looked like back in the day

[@sonogamirinne7172]

In the movies Japanese really admit some of their's tactic is inhuman and the main character is coward and not crazy like most ww2 about ija

[@kakkoishonen]

not every japanese soldiers were bad. In a War, there are always soldiers and war generals that are evil no matter what country it is. During the 2nd WW, even the japanese civilians suffered because of its army (Iwo Jima by Clint Eastwood for a reference). But in the end we are all humans. We should learn from the past and try to build a better future for our kids. Japan did it and became the safest and the most pacific country today so there's no reason you (the other countries) can't.

This is full of the essence of this movie.

[@ultronemperor3525]

Godzilla 54, This, Godzilla King of the Monsters, GMK and Godzilla vs Destoroyah are my top 5 Godzilla movies. Great video!

[@suenezumi]

Here is why peoples liked godzilla minus one: Godzilla Minus One focuses on human characters, providing depth and emotion often lacking in kaiju films. The film's script gives main characters full arcs, showing growth and perseverance amid catastrophe. A strong community banding together to stop Godzilla is the film's soulful conclusion, emphasizing resilience and compassion.

[@iyorit1089]

The truth about Godzilla's birth... March 1954 Godzilla was born from reports of a deep-sea tuna fishing boat belonging to Yaizu Port in Shizuoka Prefecture that was exposed to radiation from a hydrogen bomb test conducted by the United States on the 1st at Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands.The report after the defeat by the nuclear bomb symbolized Godzilla as an incarnation of anger and a message that threatened the world to Japan. In particular, the new G-minus One is a remake that took over the spirit of the first movie.There is a reason why many people cried and were moved by the person who lived and took over the future. The theme of this Godzilla movie is to live no matter how hard it is. In Japanese, it’s 『生きて抗え』（ikite agarae ）. thanks from🇯🇵🙇🏻‍♂️

[@DjuraValtr]

The movie was a perfect cupcake. Godzilla was just the icing on it.

[@J.Z.Z]

WHY WAS MINUS ONE SO EMOTIONAL. IM WATCHING THIS VIDEO ALONE AND I FEEL THE RAGE AND ANGER TO GODZILLA 😭😭😭😭 AND I LOVE THE GMAN

[@mr.heroic6634]

Everytime I see Godzilla, from the first to the last, I always wondered is this how the Japanese viewed nuclear weapons? Is this how they felt when the US, my country, nuclear bombed them twice? It always gave me sadness and resentment for what the past leaders chose to do. Seeing this video, I felt the Japanese’s raw anger and desperation in fighting this metaphorical monster. Yet in the middle I saw duty, family, courage, and sacrifice. All I hope is we use nuclear capabilities as an energy source. Far more than ever. Not for weapons of mass destruction. Just my thoughts from watching this is all.

[@AdiusOmega]

I did not expect this film to be so emotional, I nearly cried watching it multiple times. The music, the story, the everything just hits so well. I'm not particular fond of Japanese films and their method of acting but I found everything to be very raw and it definitely pulled my heartstrings on even the smallest little things like his neighbor helping him even though she hates him for being essentially a defector. I don't know this whole film just felt so different from anything I've ever seen. It was direct and fluid while also having so much depth and layers.
