it isn't just the best godzilla movie it is a great movie period.

[@s.4155]

An absolute masterpiece of a movie.

[@ylee5354]

🎉S 😊😊😮

[@azneph611]

It’s scary when Godzilla is swimming at your with his mouth wide open

[@jordanromesburg6819]

​@@azneph611that ish triggered my fight-or-flight in the theater 😅

[@pjny21]

3 or 4 actual rounds of applause during the film in the theater. I haven't witnessed that since Endgame (and X2).

[@felixthebeta4981]

The stunning CG & Visual Effect on a $15-million-dollar-budget movie is something that Hollywood should put into account.

[@thecunninlynguist]

wwas gonna say this...ir's crazy how zilla looks so real, compared to even GxZ, with a much lower budget.

[@Christian-eq7uh]

This won’t work in the individualistic nature of the western world. People want more and more money and care less about the art, that’s the issue in Hollywood budgets.

[@user-sn1hi7my7x]

There were parts where he looked a little outta place. Like when he was approaching the train. Still, doesn’t change the fact this movie is a masterpiece

[@connoravila]

Agreed, Hollywood needs to take notes on this film

[@jdiggitty]

It still looks goofy as hell walking.

[@timmajoe]

This is probably one of the better SCs in some time. Really nails the intricacies of the movie and the time period.

[@swaynewademvp1]

Not being bombarded with ads was great. I know they’ve gotta get their money but yea

[@BenFrankarts]

In the story, we are led to believe that Shikishima messed up by not killing Godzilla when he was smaller at the island, but it turns out Godzilla is the one who messed up by leaving Shikishima and the mechanic as survivors. They added value to their lives and fought to protect themselves. And won. For now.

[@Afanof1]

Oh snap

[@markkjacobson]

This one one of the best movies last year… period. I get emotional every time I watch it. I’ve never gotten emotional over a Godzilla movie. It’s the human drama that really sells this beyond an epic Kaiju movie. Fantastic breakdown. Actually one of the finest. Big props to the writer, Brianna.

[@brianng8350]

I gotten emotional at how bad some of them are... hahaha... But this is such an enjoyable movie after watching more than 10 times.

[@FunkesBlowhard]

Following the attack on Ginza I had a thought that has literally never, ever crossed my mind while watching one of these movies: Godzilla needs to die. That's how you know this movie is special, just an absolute masterpiece.

[@glenchapman3899]

I saw a comment that said, this is one of the few Godzilla films where he is a complete A-hole from start to finish

The mark on Noriko’s neck has been stated by Yamazaki in a recent interview, to be Godzilla’s cells not radiation poisoning

This was a great movie. You get so invested in the characters that you almost forget Godzilla is in this.

[@Ericortiz_arts]

Agreed, yet it was so well-balanced.

[@janetmontalvo6944]

Honestly so true. I watched the entire first half of the movie without thinking of Godzilla once. The film did a better job than nearly every other Godzilla movie at making me actually care for the humans. The entire end half of the movie had me dreading the idea Kōichi would sacrifice himself to save the day

[@mcruz4571]

Godzilla is almost secondary in his own movie....poor Godzilla..

[@patrickh92able]

Doesnt that mean the movie is bad then? Its suppose to be about godzilla but watching it makes you not think about the monster?

[@Evil.Totoro]

@@patrickh92ableno it means the characters and story are so well written you are enjoying their journeys. The Godzilla element is just icing on the cake. All great films do thisthese days; they focus on the spectacle while ignoring any meaningful character development.

[@anthonyhudak9363]

The deep bellow Godzilla lets out after his head gets blown up and he starts to crumble, definitely reminds me of the scene in Jaws after Brody blows up the shark and you see it sink to the ocean floor and a deep roar sound is used

[@jesusromanpadro3853]

Well, when Godzilla is after their boat, it feels like a scene of Jaws.

[@lovegen-jg7cl]

For your reference, the large white cylindrical building facing the reporters on the roof of the building is the main theater of Toho, the film's producer and distributor, and is called Nichigeki (Japanese Theater). It escaped the air raids of World War II and became loved by people as one of the symbols of Ginza. It is currently being rebuilt due to its age, but it has become a modern, cylindrical building that still retains its features.

[@terrenced7742]

Minus One was a brilliant film. So glad I saw it in the theater. After I left, and every time someone has asked me if the movie is good, I find myself going into how good the performances were and how compelling they made all of the human characters and their stories more than what happened with Godzilla himself. It definitely needed more Oscar nominations.

[@SandwichTech_]

A couple extras Easter eggs: When Godzilla attacks Ginza you can hear the Mothra motif before the theme starts again. Another easter egg is when they are wrapping around Godzilla you hear a Modernized Version of the King Kong Vs Godzilla theme from 1962. When Godzilla is being pulled up from the bottom of the sea, we see his eyes pop out and they are white. This is an easter egg to GMK Godzilla which his eyes were pure white. The last shot of Godzilla can also be a callback to GMK where Godzilla's heart is still beating. The director confirmed that the black mark is Godzilla cells and 2 TOHO monsters that heavily play a role with Godzilla cells are Biolante and SpaceGodzilla. Maybe in the sequel a scientist gets a hold of Godzilla cells and tries to revive his dead daughter, since the people who survived Ginza most likely regenerated. This can set up another emotional story similar to minus one and also introduce us to Biolante. Another possibility which is the safer route is that another monster exist which can be rodan or the most likely monster Angurius.

[@PowerPandaMods]

When Shikishima is trying to find a mechanic, he goes far out of his way to find Tachibana. Even Noda says "We can find someone else", but Shikishima insists that it be Tachibana. This is because he needed a mechanic that wanted him dead in order to outfit his plane as a kamikaze vessel. Someone he didn't know would never agree to it, but Tachibana would do it. This makes Tachibana's forgiveness at the end even more profound.

[@travisbrown9769]

Not even ashamed to say this movie had me shed a few tears. It's an amazing movie

[@denniskristos3800]

Finally you covered this exceptional film by Takashi Yamazaki. Not only is this an inspired masterpiece of Kaiju Eiga, but it's also a great piece of Japanese cinema in general. Excellent contextual analysis into Japan's post war socio-political-economic zeitgeist. Great job on delivering this and my props to the writer!

[@user-sn1hi7my7x]

This movie had a lot of thought and feeling poured into it. I love seeing Godzilla, but really invested in the characters. I actually teared up and was worried one of our characters might die. I have never felt that way about a Godzilla movie

[@tobyv2922]

One of the best movies ever, period.

[@Viper_2312]

Watch more movies

[@mozzabyss]

@@Viper_2312as someone who watches tons of movies, it was a very good movie. There are better, but this can compare well.

[@Andrew-uu7pn]

This isn’t just a great Godzilla movie it’s great movie in general. This movie took me by surprise just how good it looks and acting and the story. I was literally in tears for almost the entire film. I really don’t like the American versions of the movies anymore they show so much lore but never really show it. And I love that this movie told us that Godzilla is the bad guy not the good guy that everyone needs to be save. This is probably my favorite Godzilla of all time and I have seen the old too and that’s saying something.

[@skumchiken01]

it was basically a study on the trauma of war, with Godzilla. Story always wins over cgi

[@lexsellsmerch3512]

I really hope it gets a part 2/sequel! Minus 1 is easily one of my favorite movies of all time let alone probably my favorite Godzilla movie. Just a perfect film start to finish

[@lexsellsmerch3512]

Also, the fact that this version of Godzilla possesses a heat ray so powerful that it actively burns the entire front of his body every time he fires it is insane. I don’t remember any other iterations heat ray being that destructive before and if they did I don’t remember seeing it and would love to be proven wrong

[@noneofyourbeeswax01]

I hope there is no sequel. It is a perfect standalone movie which pursues themes relevant to the time. What could a sequel add? It would just be a cash grab.

[@giannisksanthopoulos4300]

@@noneofyourbeeswax01 are you real? I am not even a Godzilla fan but the most important thing is The King of Monsters fighting other monster.... Always Toho making the first Godzilla movie fighting against people..and after that other monsters. And they have some interesting monsters, yeah we saw Ghidora on Monsterverse..... but there are a lot more.

[@mozzabyss]

They better call it godzilla plus one 😂

[@Kaijutopia]

Here's an exciting reference you might have missed: In Japanese culture, Dead Fish means giving up on life and not caring anymore about what happens next. Godzilla's arrival is heralded by deep sea fish, which juxtaposes with human protagonist Koichi Shikishima. At critical moments of his arc, Shikishima witnesses the dead fish throughout the story. And though he later deduces their connection to Godzilla, he seems unaware of their eerie connection to the ghosts in his head. Interestingly, the meaning of Dead Fish (i.e., having 'dead fish eyes') may apply to Godzilla himself, as his eyes look like they have nothing left to lose...

[@Gzilla313]

Happy to see this excellent movie getting covered

[@bryanheilman4376]

This is my fav Godzilla movie and one of my fav movies of all time.

[@ElkRiverDog]

Another (possible) Easter egg that y’all might find interesting: the plane that Shikishima flies in the final battle (a Kyushu J7W Shinden) was developed to intercept B-29s (aka superfortress heavy bombers) And the scenes of Godzilla stomping through villages right before Shikishima engages him is very reminiscent of the wholesale and unfeeling destruction of an air raid.

[@calebwright2531]

I like this movie because they made Godzilla invincible and most likely immortal (or at least gave him one of the best Accelerated Regenerative Healing Factors ever).

[@user-damegane]

Director Yamazaki has stated that the birthmark on Noriko's neck is caused by "Godzilla cells." "Godzilla cells" are a setting that first appeared in Godzilla vs. Biollante (1989), in which the tragic monster Biollante was born when a rose transplanted with human cells was fused with Godzilla cells, which have the powerful ability to regenerate themselves.

[@TheNalbandian]

I literally watched this for the first time last night! Perfectly timed recap for me 🙏

[@Ericortiz_arts]

Interesting, you didn’t subscribe to the notion that Noriko’s cell’s were somehow infected by that of Godzilla’s, allowing her to survive and heal?

[@jordanromesburg6819]

Seems like a bit of a stretch - does this theory imply that everyone within range of the atomic breath will heal? Or if not, I guess my question is how Noriko in particular was "infected"

[@JohnKelly2]

If that were the case, then why didn't her eye heal?

[@jeremyorth5138]

The director confirmed that it was Godzilla's cells.

[@thisworldislame4412]

Could be doing just that​@@JohnKelly2

[@MrSpock-wc2sy]

When the Godzilla theme played at the end as they went after Godzilla, I was so excited. What a great movie and the music...that music....just makes it perfect.

[@mjh6209]

A couple of things (probably also mentioned by other posters previously), but Takashi Yamazaki confirmed that the black mark on Noriko's neck, were indeed none other than Godzilla's "G cells" that are what regenerate him in other films. Also the many salutes given by the civilian fleet member are not for Koichi, but Godzilla...these salutes given to Godzilla reference Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack which in turn is based an actual salute given by the captain of the Japanese destroyer Yukikaze, to the captain and crew of the the USS Johnston which was sunk after a prolonged battle with a larger Japanese force at the Battle of Samar, 1944 demonstrating a tradition in the Japanese military that respect was shown even for an enemy.

[@pacoherran3850]

GREAT writing by Briana!! Congrats!

[@craytherlaygaming2852]

26:35 Said seen is also a reference to the exact same kind of scene from GMK where you see Godzilla's heart still beating at the bottom of the ocean

When Godzilla was attacking the Japanese soldiers in that form; it was a callback to a Godzilla movie moment in Godzilla versus King Ghidorah (1991). In that scene Godzilla attacked soldiers on an Island before he evolved.

[@kristinajohansson1351]

Just watched it yesterday so this is a timely video. I love the arc of the main character.

[@brycevo]

This is genuinely one of the greatest Japanese movies. I adore this film so much

[@atar212]

Loved when they mentioned Freon. My dad, John J. Beall, fresh out of college and working for Dupont, was working on stabilizing Freon in 1938. One of his test canisters had a milky substance in it. He brought it to the attention of his lab manager R. Plunkett. Plunkett had his assistant, Jack do further testing on the substance. The substance was later named Teflon.

[@kiwigaming09]

If your dad was alive 86 years ago how old are you???

[@atar212]

Old as dirt. 70

[@toddhensley880]

My only complaint is how bottom-heavy they made Godzilla in later scenes. But I guess that explains how he appeared to be standing in the water above the trench. He must have been super buoyant. 😂

[@tumblingworm737]

Yeah. It wasn't explained but I guess his fat legs are like the liver in fish

[@liampritchett1779]

Some people think that thing on Noriko neck is a piece of Godzilla, which is why she was able to heal fast

Loved this movie when I saw it and it grew on me more and more as the best Godzilla movie I had seen in a long time as well as a phenomenal film in its own right completely. I hope it is just the start for this format to continue beyond just the monster mash-up concept 😅

[@stevenbrown1151]

My take on the black mark on Noriko’s neck was that she was infected with Godzilla’s regeneration abilities and that’s how she survived being blown away

[@Wooshey_Wooj]

This & Shin Godzilla are the best Toho Gojira movies ever imo. I count Minus one to be one of the best movies made. You don’t even need Godzilla in it. He just adds to how amazing the movie is.

Yall do the best reviews out there for so many different shows/movies. Yall are as awesome as Godzilla -One!

[@stephenradlett1418]

Another Easter egg is when they go looking for the USS Lancaster they are in/near the Ogasawara Islands...the location of Monster Island in the Showa Era films beginning with DESTROY ALL MONSTERS

[@soundblaster3852]

The movie was amazing.

[@utubepunk]

Thank you Ryan & writers for adding all the historical content.

[@darrylt8502]

What about the easter eggs referencing Steven Spielberg movies? Early Godzilla and close up of the eye from Jurassic Park? Back to the Future when they were talking about the "Kid and the Doc" before Shikishima board the wooden boat. Jaws when they shot the bomb in Godzilla's mouth. Pretty sure there's more in there.

[@jasondetilly5647]

Great video as always!

[@SamJSnyder]

It’s interesting to me how many people jumped on board with Noriko’s black creeping neck mark being a sign of radiation poisoning, and not looking at it more as a metaphor of the forever lasting & growing effect of nuclear war; the symbolic looming doom of Godzilla. I suppose all of which could be considered the same thing - which the director is calling G Cells (because it is actually a funny way of summarizing), but everyone is taking it SO literally.

[@azneph611]

Love the score to this movie

[@AltenbergerWiesel]

Great Breakdown with a lot of background information - Thank you! Awesome!

[@gianmarcozampella5138]

I'm surprised you didn't mention this,but Godzilla's initial dinosaur form isn't a new concept and is a direct reference to Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah from 1991: in that movie,there's a surviving theropod called Godzillasaurus living on Lagos Island in 1944. Long story short,it gets killed by the Allied Forces,but gets irradiated by the Pacific nuclear tests and becomes Godzilla,just like the creature on Odo Island. The movie deals with time travel and the moving of Godzillaurus' carcass to avoid Godzilla's creation,but that's his origin story in the Heisei Era continuity

[@brycevo]

The multiple atomic breaths destroying Godzilla from the inside out and the heart regenerating are references to Godzilla GMK, the directors favorite Godzilla movie

[@markwilliams2620]

The first view of the _Shinden_ shows the cockpit with German writing indicating an ejection seat. This related to the seat designed for the Dornier DO 335 _Pfiel_ and the transfer of some late war tech to Japan by the Nahtsees. I missed the black mark on her neck. Sad.

[@Godzilla-tu2cd]

0:47 shin godzilla is also a complete reboot. Ignoring the original 1954 movie and starting a new era. 25:58 that's godzilla cells on her. 26:28 this is a reference to the 2001 movie godzilla mothra and king ghidorah giant monsters all out attack. Or gmk for short. The second movie this movie took inspiration from. The first one is obviously the original gojira movie

[@jordanromesburg6819]

So did everyone who got hit by the atomic breath have a healing factor now?

[@Godzilla-tu2cd]

@@jordanromesburg6819 we don't know for sure. We'll have to wait and see if part 2 happens

[@merky6004]

Ejection seats. Interesting you mentioned that only Germany has them in WWII. I noticed the seat with a warning in German language. I know a little German. (Insert joke here). Later I had a hunch about that proved correct. Although I wasn’t at all sure.

[@jbotkin47]

Great video! But the director confirmed that isn’t radiation but Godzilla cells on her neck at the end.

[@freshparkfilms]

15:42 I wish I knew how they made it for so cheap they dod such an incredible job the movie looked amazing including the normal scenes and the Godzilla scenes

[@SciHeartJourney]

I think they got it wrong about the radiation. In the first movie this biologist was pissed off because he wanted to study Godzilla to understand its resistance to radiation. I just saw this movie again and I noticed that mark on Noriko's neck was MOVING. It's changing her! She is continuing to regenerate. That's probably how she survived. She's probably going to regenerate her eye too. I'm not making this up, is Godzilla lore.

[@JROTCBALL]

I believe the director confirmed in a interview that the gal died, but it was Godzilla genes that kept her alive

[@piglettyII]

They saluted to Godzilla, not to Shiki-san. Watched 2 ver. of English sub. and some translation are not accurate. (sometimes you just need to know the language to understand or read their feeling which is not said in words.) but glade people enjoyed the movie. To know a little thing about movies is fun. like they saved some money to make actual sized Shinden in exchange of display in Fukuoka afterwards, or 3 rules of Godzilla. Also I was sorta surprised to know Godzilla was this big in the states.

[@eeeeeeeeMan]

This is right there with Titanic in turning a tragedy into an epic and compelling human drama combined with an incredible combination of practical and computer generated effects. Godzilla Minus One is a nearly perfect movie, and is one of my favorites of ANY genre!

[@shemdominiquegelvezabay7312]

The light beams when Godzilla Minus One collapses is actually a reference from when Godzilla 2001 dies.

[@kronosaur417]

I feel that the atomic beams coming out of Godzilla's body at the end were more a reference to the movie Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack (2001) (or more simply, Godzilla GMK) which saw Godzilla explode when his own atomic energy erupted from a wound on his shoulder, as well as his still beating heart at the bottom of the ocean (I remember hearing somewhere that GMK was Takashi Yamazaki's favorite Godzilla film, correct me if I'm wrong)

[@barrymccaulkiner7092]

The naval crew was not saluting Shikashima. They were saluting the most terrifying and destructive enemy they had ever faced. They were honoring Godzilla.

[@merky6004]

Regeneration. I recall later films of Godzilla with “G Cells”. “Godzilla Cells”. Nuclear speed regeneration/healing. So I wasn’t too surprised. In fact, it’s been tossed out there, that Godzilla is nuclear powered the way we are chemically powered. Chemical reactions are how we process materials and gain energy. The difference is about one times more for atomics. Chemical bomb vs atomic.

[@canuck_gamer3359]

I actually didn't watch the movie from beginning to end but I think there is something that is worth pointing out. Ryan mentions that Kamikaze attacks were effective. From a strictly tactical point of view, there were highly ineffective and impractical. I could write a long explanation for that but I can best sum it up by pointing out that even the Germans abandoned the idea of suicide attacks by air. They determined that it just wasn't practical and it was a waste of planes. Did Kamikaze attacks do a lot of damage? Of course they did but as far as percentages go, they were very poor.

[@apeman505]

I'm not crying... YOU'RE crying!!

i'm not a godzilla fan, but i watched this movie in the theater to see minami hamabe (noriko) because she's one of my, uh, screen crushes. but i ended up loving the movie itself. i was in tears at the end and had to wait for my eyes to dry before leaving the theater. 😀 btw both minami hamabe and ryuunosuke kamiki (shikishima) had also starred together in an nhk tv morning drama called "ranman." they have great on-screen chemistry.

[@FrederickCAycottJr]

Excellent video! Enjoyed and learned a lot.

[@shadow1961]

It was a great film, and for once they brought it all down to the human level. it's interesting that one of Yamazaki's previous films,The Great War of Archimedes, is a perfect bookend to this one, since it's about events leading up to the war. It has the same composer, too, adding to the eerie similarities.

[@keithmaxon9510]

Best Godzilla movie ever from a LONG time fan. You did forget to mention the fact that Godzilla transformed as a result of US testing, but that the US was doing everything they could to stay out of hunting him for fear of radicalizing the Soviet Union which also ties into the post war timeline for WW2. Otherwise, very insightful. I noticed the fish, but could not put two and two together as to why they were that way. Good find.

[@CoCotheTurtle]

I think they were irradiated by Godzilla, and floated to the surface inside out, _not_ that they were driven to the surface in his wake.

[@TakuTheKnight]

I know Noone is going to mention this but shout out to the writer of the script for this video she really cooked with this one

[@WookSlurm]

You forgot to mention that there was German writing on the seat inside the experimental plane , literally spelling "ejection seat" (Schleudersitz) in German. Everyone who speaks German knew what was going to happen since the first shot of that plane.

People casually forget that we burned Tokyo to the ground.

[@コタツネコ彡]

Shikishima is a family name which is not rare in Japan, and it is also an archaic name for Japan, derived from the ancient site of Shiki, where the emperor's palace was located. The Japanese battleship Yamato was named after the ancient Japanese Yamato Province which became by extension a name for the whole of Japan. Shikishima is a set epithet for Yamato in waka poetry.

[@thelightwielder]

I think they set it up for a direct sequel when they showed the black stuff under Noriko's skin, but even without that they showed Godzilla regenerating

[@CerealMilkDVD]

it was actually stated she is infected with g cells i believe the director said it in a interview i dont know why Ryan didn't look it up and talked about it in the video

I’m pretty sure it’s confirmed that the black mark on Noriko is actually regenerative cells like the ones Godzilla has.
