Godzilla Ratings & Reviews
- foxlightning11 april 2026It has its flaws but I love this movie, the music and actions go so well together, just could use more monster time, fun Monster Mash movie
- Mr. D11 maart 2026Rewatching cause of the show, Monarch. While its a decent flick, godzilla is missing half the movie and the film has a dark video quality that really ruins things.
- Lincoln and Blake Frank10 maart 2026Hear god-zilla roar 🐯
- braino15 februari 2026ive never hated a movie as much as this one. this wasn't even a godzilla movie for the first hour. why was Bryan Cranston's character even in the movie? The sound was awful. The visuals were dark and gray. I hated this movie more than The Incredible Hulk. the cgi was ok
- PapaHamzeh6 maart 2025Alas, what could have been. What is it that Americans dont understand about Godzilla? Is it our ego-centrism that inhibits our ability to understand what makes people afraid? Is it our constant surroundings of the fantastical-made-real that forces us to make other things so over-the-top? Is it our lack of empathy that shames us into trying to make human stories in inhuman worlds, and ultimately failing to accomplish the task?
- Mark J. Handy18 januari 2025I’ve watched this a few times. For a monster movies that destroys stuff it works. Is there a deep story or character building? No.
- Taturz6315 februari 2026Not enough Godzilla
- Zokkiie6 februari 2026I love the MonsterVerse, so I might be a bit biased — the movie takes its time setting up the world and the human story, which makes Godzilla’s appearances feel huge and impactful. The scale and effects are amazing, and the tension builds nicely, even if the monster action is a bit slow to start. It’s definitely a thrilling way to kick off the MonsterVerse.
- Spoons11 oktober 2024Some good action, but not enough time is spent with the monsters. Cloverfield and Pacific Rim are much better monster movies.
- Shaydeknight16 januari 2026Godzilla is a masterclass in how to misunderstand your own premise. This is a monster movie that seems actively embarrassed by monsters. The film withholds fights, obscures them in darkness, smoke, rain, and cutaways, and repeatedly abandons moments of potential spectacle to check in on humans we barely know and quickly stop caring about. When monsters finally clash, the camera ducks away as if the audience has asked for something licentious. That choice alone sinks the film. The human story is the other major failure. Bryan Cranston's character has a clear emotional wound, but his obsession is inconsequential, and once he exits the film, that narrative loses what little spine it had. Ken Watanabe speaks in reverent half-mythology without ever grounding Monarch's purpose or logic, leaving the organization to be vague and inert. Most of the supporting cast drift through the plot reacting to events rather than driving them, which creates a persistent sense that things are happening simply because the script needs them to. David Strathairn is the exception. He plays the only character who behaves rationally, understands the situation, and seems aware of the genre he's in. Everyone else appears lost in a fog of unclear motivation and underwritten purpose. The family storyline is a misfire from start to finish. It asks for emotional investment it never earns and competes directly with the very thing the audience came to see. The film wants you to care about them during a global monster crisis, and it never justifies that demand. Similarly, Monarch's machinations are dull here, especially frustrating given how much better they are developed in later entries. The cast is good. The direction is competent. The tone is serious to a fault. But the film is mostly boring, visually frustrating, and structurally timid. A Godzilla movie should not be afraid to show monsters fighting, and this one is afraid again and again. The movie is too visually dark, too slow plot-wise, too centred on humans we couldn't care less about, and far too stingy with the monster fights.
- Baby ARES30 november 2025Pretty solid start to the Legendary Universe
- Nathan Magreta4 november 2025Godzilla is less monster-based and more about human dynamics in a world of Kaijus. Aaron Taylor Johnson gives us a strong performance, along with Gareth Edwards serving as the perfect director in this fresh take on the iconic beast.
- Terry Phan29 oktober 2025I guess it’s okay, not bad for legendary to be fair. Godzilla’s screen time in this movie was…
- craft194725 juli 2025Could have been better. Seemed like all the action sequences and monster scenes took place in total darkness, so it was hard to see everything. If I were to compare it to another Godzilla film, I would say the 1998 Godzilla was more enjoyable than this one was.
- Kevin Ward2 juli 2025My niece and nephew were in town for easter and my nephew Eli really wanted to watch this Godzilla. Honestly this was way better than I remember it being. I think my biggest complaints on my first watch were that Brian Cranston and Godzilla both weren’t in the movie enough. Watching it this time though, they were in it way more than I had remembered. Funny how memory works sometimes. Still really love the sense of scale Gareth Edwards infuses into the picture by using lots of low angle shots. HALO jump still rules.
