While I was disappointed to hear that we weren't getting a Shin Godzilla 2 at first -- given how great that 2016 movie was -- it turns out that Toho knew what they were doing by instead going retro and making a post-WWII flick called Godzilla Minus One after all. It kicks ass. And not just in the monster-mayhem department -- it's got real human characters, ones whose stories we actually care about, and actually uses the monster to inform and enliven their conflicts! As much as I love Godzilla movies this is not what they are typically known for. Click over to Pajiba to read my full review, and if you can find a big theater near you showing this movie this weekend -- I do blieve it's only playing here in the U.S. for a week? -- do so. It might be an emotional experience but that monster mayhem doesn't disappoint either!
