I saw it last night, absolutely worth it. Fantastic film.

Have you watched Shin Godzilla as well? If so, how's it compare with that? That was the last Godzilla movie I saw and I really dug it.

Not as good as Shin, but I consider Shin the 2nd best in the franchise, only after '54. Minus One is solid though. If you're at all interested you should check it out.

Nice, I'll have to see if I can find a time to go see it!

[–] Undeltog@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

I really enjoyed Shin Godzilla. They are very different movies, and I'll need to rewatch minus one a few times before I cement my opinion, but I think I'd give Shin the edge.

I'll offer a dissenting voice here and say that I thought it was better than Shin Godzilla (even though that movie is excellent). It's the first time they nailed the human storylines since maybe the original 54 film. The depiction of Godzilla is more god-like, for lack of a better word, and less anime like the Shin depiction.
