Wasn't that rather a variation of the original song? You don't hear the Original song until much later in the movie, where they are all on those two big boats and the final showdown happens. That was the part where I did smile since that is when it sounded like the original now when Godzilla shows up in the city.

@@jopnop22"Shin Godzilla" comes to mind. Another movie in which Godzilla plays the role of the villain, just on a way bigger scale. I would recommend giving Shin Godzilla a watch, very interessting concept. Just as a warning, it's more like a political drama than anything else. Not because of certain policies, just because Shin Godzilla approaches Godzilla as a problem from a political point of view. So yeah, watch it, if you can and if you are interessted. Would say Minus One is better though.

This movie is so good I think even the most cynical person would love something they might call an "asspull" in a lesser movie. But its *EVEN MORE* awesome because all it took was a little bit of black Godzilla blood in Noriko's neck for this "happy ending" to be incredibly tragic 😭 Whether or not this lauches a series, if you interpet the black blood as radiation poisoning..... 😢. Or maybe she becomes a Kaiju hyrid and Koichi has to kill her.... Im tearing up over a movie that hasn't even been made yet.

@keiviroque56666 ай бұрын
To justify the Noriko pushing scene, while it is a trope, it actually heavily supports the message of living above all else. Shikishima is wracked with survivor’s guilt; he believes that he should have died in WWII, as a Kamikaze pilot, and can never escape that. This guilt blinds him to the point in which he can’t see that he has plenty of reasons to live, in having a family through Noriko and Akiko. Noriko’s sacrifice is what pushes Shikishima to take action against Godzilla but it also serves as as a way to build tension and suspense through the viewer. Shikishima plans on taking his own life inorder to stop Godzilla and the film heavily emphasizes that plan. Noriko’s sacrifice is what helps convey the tragedy of this decision, as Noriko sacrificed her life for his but he is now wasting it away for revenge. The film keeps building on that angle of Shikishima tragically sacrificing himself, so when he does end up surviving we’re that much more relieved. The reveal of Noriko being alive could also serve as a kind of reward for Shikishima learning that living is most important and that he shouldn’t treat his life so cheaply.

like zrosl says, he definitely knows this, it’s just that it could’ve been done differently so that it didn’t come across as quite so unrealistic. for instance, they could’ve been just slightly further away from the alley way, and noriko could’ve scrambled to rush both of them towards it, and maybe time it so that the shockwave would come right as noriko pushes shikishima to safety, but in doing so, loses time to get her self to safety too

While I definitely agree that Noriko being alive seems a LITTLE forced, this is the first time the "person we thought was dead actually survived!" bit hasn't felt like a contrivance, not only because of how heartfelt the reunion is (and following that joy up with the horrific Godzilla infection implications and his regeneration), but also because of how it's another sort of callback to Japan's lived reality. There are multiple accounts of both WWII soldiers and a-bomb survivors thinking they had lost someone only to find out weeks months or even years later that that person is alive. So while her revival came out of nowhere for me, I definitely don't hate how they did it. The power of likeable characters lol

Moreover, her absorbing some of Godzilla's essence could explain how she survived the explosion. She simply regenerated in a similar manner to that of Godzilla.

If there's a sequel, I'm pretty sure Noriko is meant to take over the role of Miki Saegusa. Essentially, she developed a connection to Godzilla in prior films that lets her sense his presence, emotions, and even tried to control him through it. Moreover, her absorbing some of Godzilla's essence could explain how she survived the explosion. She simply regenerated in a similar manner to that of Godzilla. When it comes to making a sequel, Minus-1 shows how radiation can create Kaiju and more nuclear tests could potentially create more kaiju for Godzilla to face off against.
@webhead59856 ай бұрын
That's exactly what I was thinking! I would love it if they used an angle like Miki to make the next movie more centered on Godzilla and perhaps play up the angle of him being a victim too. That was the one plot thread I wish they kept in Minus One, but I definitely understand for thematic reasons why they cut it. If they let Noriko have a psychic link with Godzilla (after he regenerates of course) I would also like it if they introduced the Shobijin for a third movie.

That’s why I’m a huge Godzilla fan, movies like Minus One or Shin Godzilla shows how diverse the franchise can be. On one hand it can be very serious with a lot darker and mature themes, then it can be more fun and action packed, like a lot of the Showa era movies where he’s literally dancing. While I did have the same gripe on the Monsterverse focusing too much on the humans (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing but the problem is the Monsterverse human characters being uninteresting) that franchise is more of the actions sequences which I like as well

*SPOILERS* I was also initially disappointed by Noriko miraculously surviving, but I overlooked the significance of that mark on her neck that they zoomed in on during the hospital scene. Apparently it's supposed to be one of Godzilla's cells, meaning she was infected by the radiation that created Godzilla and gained some of Godzilla's powers, like being able to heal herself. Still a bit goofy, but I'm glad they threw in some sort of hint as to how she could have possibly survived the shock wave. I really hope they make a direct sequel to this Godzilla so they can delve more into this.

I thought the same thing. Thanks for explaining better than I would. One thing I was wondering though is how the main character didn’t suffer any effects from the blast.

I was never bored through those sections, and actually, some of those human moments are the best in the film, better than anything with Godzilla himself, which those parts with him are phenomenal as well. I couldn't recommend the movie enough either, super good.

13:20 except the trope made sense tbh, the shockwave literally hit her less than a second after she pushed him. It would have taken a lot more effort to get koichi to move than just shoving him. The shockwave also probably would have sucked her out of the alley. Also, regarding Norikos survival, there’s a theory that the black “growth” on her neck is godzillas cells, which can explain her rapidly healing and appearing more alive. But I think a bit of scarring on her face would have made it more understandable

My working theory for the ending is that in the blast we see her get sent flying away, before everything suddenly starts flying the other direction towards Godzilla. We also see that blood starts to rain down and I think that blood is actually godzillas, we see that every time he uses his heat blast it injures him, so after being pulled toward Godzilla, a little of his blood got into her system which let her slowly heal from lethal injury’s, explaining both the time skip and the black mark on her neck

While it is still ridiculous, I think the most logical reason for her pushing Shikishima and not tackling him is because she could generate much more force to actually push him into the alley in less time than trying to wrap her arms around him and tackle him. The timing of him getting pushed into the alley and her getting blasted away is at practically the same time. With such a small amount of time to act and react after being in such a state of shock I can see the first instinct to be to simply push your loved one out of the way of danger.

Add to the fact that she loves him, and wanted to see him live for Akiko and himself to the point that she would sacrifice herself to make that happen. She was definitely thinking of him and not herself, and to me, that truly speaks volumes of what kind of person she was/is.

It's also possible that it's just in it's nascent phase and could cause her to mutate, like Biollante who was a mix of g-cells, human and rose genes. It is also possible that she is not the only one infected with these cells.

Nah I’m pretty sure that’s what kept her alive

it wasn't a burn, it looked like an enlarged vein that very subtly crept up her neck. assuming it's some kind of piece of godzilla that ended up in her and allowing her to regenerate, and if there's a sequel I imagine that will be an extremely relevant plot point.

I was mixed on that ending as well but after a bit- I think it was earned and fits nicely with Koichi's character arc as well as the themes of the human spirit and the will to live.

and to deliver that line "is your war over". That one got me good

@TheEggroll4321 I also love how that line furthers how alive these characters feel because Koichi never said his line of "My war isn't over" to her on screen.

I like the monsterverse movies, but Minus One is great because it makes you actually care about the humans for once and makes you worry about the characters actually being in danger, while still having the actual Godzilla parts of it being phenomenal and impactful while looking cool too. Truly one of the greatest Godzilla films I've ever seen.

Godzilla cells were spread over area by the blast. She probably survived by taking on Godzilla cels and regenerating like him. Look at her neck at the end.

Finally some universal Godzilla love! When shin Godzilla came out I was generally surprised that not many people were talking about it considering that I believe it to be on par with minus one in many aspects. Finally happy that people are giving the Japanese movies the respect they deserve!

I think the lack of emotional drama is what drives people off. Shin Godzilla is first and foremost, a movie seen through the lens of people in power, as the movie is meant to capture Godzilla's effect on current japan's politic and economy and how they deal with it. So naturally it won't sit right with general audiences. The stakes and drama in Minus One felt more personal, as we are seeing his destruction through citizen's lenses now. Naturally, it is easier to relate as the emotions of the characters are the core of the movie, unlike Shin Godzilla's more methodical approach

I think a large factor is the general distaste for what Hollywood has been putting out. People are ready to try the alternative options, and Hollywood had better be ready for it.

@@OneDapperFrog Although I am very hyped about movies from other countries breaking out internationally especially in the US I still think a large amount of Japanese films are utterly garbage.

I liked that it was a more classic style Godzilla design, but Shin Godzilla was much more terrifying visually. If they combined the design of Shin Godzilla with the story from Minus One we'd have the perfect Godzilla film imo

It wasn't a destroyer. It was a heavy cruiser and the great thing is that they used a real cruiser (Takao) which actually survived the war and was in Singapore post war.

The marking they showed on the girl’s neck hints that the radiation she’s infected with possibly gave her regeneration, similar to that of Godzilla’s. Could also explain why she looks seemingly fine with no marks and burns.
@casf1206 ай бұрын
The book on this movie, written by the director, explains that the shadow on the lady’s neck in the hospital is an infection from Godzilla cells. Which could explain why she survived as it healed her. But they may be hinting at she’ll be taken over by Godzilla
