Masterpiece of a film, in all honesty should be nominated for Best Picture
Just saw it today with my wife - it's our first wedding anniversary - and we absolutely loved the movie! Koichi's struggle with PTSD is one of my favorite plot points of the movie. While my wife was concerned it might trigger me a bit, it was very cathartic how his breakdown with Noriko was and how he made the move from seeking redemption through death to choosing to live. It was a truly moving film and easily my favorite Godzilla movie of all time!
As a Vet, that subplot was very good!
@@barryrobinson1041 I'm not a vet - PTSD from child abuse and other things - but it was very relatable regarding how Koichi felt disconnected and was questioning whether he was really alive or not. The way he freaked out was very much what it can be like.
Happy anniversary!
Totally agree. PTSD and or survivor’s guilt was shown and not just told in the movie. Great movie and story telling
This actually links back to the original 1954 Godzilla movie.
In 1954, the War and the Atomic Bombs were very fresh in Japan's memory. The original was very dark and bittersweet. Godzilla, an allegory for nuclear weapons testing and war, appears and unstoppably wrecks everything and leaves.
However, the original 1954 Godzilla was extremely cathartic to the Japanese audience. Watching the movie allowed them to process the trauma and grief that had been under the surface. That's why the original Godzilla is so culturally important to Japan.
I watched Godzilla Minus One with my SO and we both loved it. It was so good.
I have watched every Godzilla movie, and been watching Godzilla all of my life. I am ready to call it. This is the best Godzilla movie ever made. The fact that I took my wife who has hated every single Godzilla movie I have dragged her to except for Godzilla vs Kong (only because she thought Kong was cute), and she loved it. I was blown away.
Epic!
I will say so also. I'm all about Kaiju. Give me monsters and destruction, but this had a very good well written human story where we also have to deal with The monster of monsters.
Neither me or my wife have ever been Godzilla fans; I heard a rave review so we watched the first half of the trailer and bought tickets.
Now we're making a Godzilla watchlist.
@@SkilletTRO dont watch any american movies
Oh gosh, yes, the praise is not only coming from the audience and critics, but the box office is actually doing so well for this film! I can tell that this film is trying not to be over the top with its plot line and characters. Just having a film being done with the budget and directing it has really does determine how well it will go.
Agreed. I've just watched it for the third time, and hope to see it again before they pull it out of the theaters (supposedly in a few days' time). Best movie I've seen in years. Thank you, Toho!
Godzilla Minus One was the best film of the year for me. I was actually terrified of Godzilla and his “atomic” breathe finally lives up to its name.
I never thought I would almost cry watching a Godzilla movie. This movie was beautiful and horrifying
Likewise
I literally cried. I'm a 29 year old dude but everything these characters went through... it's a great story.
I had to wipe my eyes before leaving the theater.
A tear came to my eye when Godzilla whooped Kong because it finally settled an argument I’ve had since childhood 😂
Very good storytelling. This was some epic greek tragedy type writing. They also paid extra attention to the details of the characters and atmosphere of the settings.
This movie was so good, you forget about the monster beause you've been so caught up in the characters, It was incredible
What was so crazy is I saw this in the theater with my wife who is absolutely NOT INTERESTED in any of this. And with some time to reflect on the movie she was like “Ya know, that was a pretty good movie”.
Yeah I had to drag my Mrs along. She loved it.
took my teenage daughter to it when she's just mildly interested... she ended up crying and becoming the movies biggest fan, lol It helps that the leading young actors were hot too.
damn, time to go to the theatre
Big win for the Kaiju fandom! I saw it in DTLA in 4DX after Comic Con (missed promo opportunity- Gundam had a bigger presence than Godzilla this weekend). What a roller coaster ride! (physical and emotional). The crowd was loving it and after the 2nd atomic breath blast one dude yelled out "Rewind that sh1t!:" and the theater was like "hell yeah!"
The praise for this movie is insane lol. Never been a godzilla guy but I'll have to check this out.
It would have been a good movie even if you took Godzilla out of it. Great characters with a good story.
I never liked any of these monster movies but loved this one. When to see it with my son for his sake, and I became a fan.
Did you like it?!
I found GM1 to be a breath of fresh air from the usual Hollywood tropes. No rebellious teenagers, no marriage on the rocks, no quick-wealth schemes, no shadow corporate agendas-- just a simple story about people I grew to care about. America's been polarized for so long, that it's nice to see good people unifying to face adversity, even if for two hours. Let's see Hollywood make something more satisfying with just $15M. Go, go, Godzilla!
Not one IMAX theater has it in the NY/NJ metropolitan area until Tuesday. Went to see it in a normal AMC screen. IT IS AMAZING. Godzilla is frightening. I never felt fright from any Godzilla. This one nailed it.
I saw it in the DFX theater and it was well done. A must-watch in the special theater, and it felt like you got to witness the event, not a movie. When it hits the physical media (meaning Bluray and 4K), it's nothing like an event but still, it's a masterpiece of a movie.
Wait a minute, the Godzilla Minus One budget was only 15million? We have Hollywood flops like Black Adam that cost nearly 200million? I'm sure actor the Rock alone cost 15 million filming that movie, that is down right criminal just thinking about it.
Hollywood is going to have to learn to make films more efficiently or the box office is going to die.
@@PV1230 Yeah, I want the people who work on these films to get paid well for their hard work and creativity but I think it would be best for films if directors had to do more with less. Because then you can’t just brush bad writing under the rug with tons of special effects scenes. As many people hate the Star Wars sequels now, just imagine. No one would watch those nonsensical pos if you only saw one lightsaber duel and space battle per film like it was in the OT. But the OT made so much more out of less action sequences because the story was compelling and when those lightsabers ignited, you felt excited and invested in the outcome.
It’s the best Godzilla film ever made in my opinion.
Some people are afraid to accept the truth, but it IS the best Godzilla movie, hands down. His atomic breath / nuclear explosion effect is just WOW.
First one is still the best, but this is easily 2nd place.
IM THERE WITH YOU!!!
@@ba2724 HIS ATOMIC BREATH HAD ME LIKE "WHOA"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MOMENTS LIKE THAT MAKES YOU GLAD GODZILLA DOESNT EXIST.
@@JohnDoe-zx1ckagreed
Absolutely loved the film, jumped all the way to my #2 spot behind only the original 54 film. Basically everything I could want in a Godzilla film, and I’m so glad it’s catching on and word of mouth is spreading about it. Hope Toho really takes notice that here in America we don’t just care about Legendary Godzilla, but also Toho’s as well!
Liked it better than one since attacks were in broad daylight.
@@jamesfields2916true times changing and the advancement of cinema makes those daylight scenes even better. Gotta love the OG ones tho
They most certainly do considering they took a gamble on being the sole distributor globally rather than through another American production company.
First one has the cultural impact and got it all started. But I think this one is the Best Godzilla movie of all time due to checking all the boxes that the first one can't due to technical limitations. I also think the story and characters are more compelling.
The 3 top Godzilla movies are The Original, Godzilla minus one because the story line and the soundtrack that brings you back in time and Shin Godzilla. This is just my opinion. Godzilla Minus 1 rocks and he just looks so mean lol. Enjoy
there are two types of Godzilla movies. Godzilla solo movies where they tackle serious issues, and Godzilla Vs. movies where the focus is campy giant monster battles. I love both.
I live in Illinois but I went to Burlington Iowa to watch Godzilla Minus one and for me as long time childhood fan 36 now this movie was very emotional for me when the theme song was playing during the Ginza attack
Look out, its GOJIRA!!!!
From Zero To Minus
That's ゴジラ。わかた？
@@SwissTanuki Yes
@@justindelrosario7423良し
Awesome video Ryan. I absolutely loved it too. The human story was so beautifully done and it made me tear up a couple of times. I also loved the way they still really made Godzilla look like a guy in a suit as well while also giving him more movement when he's attacking a building or a ship. So happy Toho delivered to side of Godzilla.
Well, I've watched it in Germany. There were about two or three dozen movie theatres that showed it at all, in the entire country.
Limited release, only two showings per theatre. I watched the second one and was heartbroken to find barely a third of seats filled.
Still a great film, some weird parts excluded.
So glad Godzilla is getting more positive buzz that he rightly deserves! Go G-MAN!!!!!
Godzilla has always been my childhood hero
I cant wait to see it tomorrow. On my day off.
Hell, i might catch a midnight viewing after work at this rate with the glowing reviews
I agree with the making him walk stiff opinion. It looks cool. When he shows faster movement it surprises you. This was a thrilling movie with a cast of humans I really cared about. I might like this movie a little bit more than Shin Gojra
This movie was incredible! I'm hoping to get to see it a second time. I'd love to see more Godzilla content including your top Godzilla movies! I actually have 2 lists which ones I think are the best Godzilla movies and which are my favorites. Right now (subject to change cause def riding the hype train) Minus 1 is 2nd on my best movies and 3rd on my favorites both times it's right behind the original 54 and my favorite Godzilla movie is the original Godzilla vs Mecha-Godzilla.
As for the movie itself, yes they actually wrote a complete good movie and didn't just phone in the human drama thinking "We'll just rely on the special effects to carry the movie!" Also Hollywood needs to take note cause this movie was made for $15M and looks better in a lot of sequences than some of these $200M+ movies. The scenes with Godzilla were awe inspiring, whether it be the tiny bit you get at the start or the Jaws like sequence they've shown in the trailers. Idk what it is but I LOVE getting to see Godzilla in the water, it's like an integral part of the character that we almost never get to see him in there so it was super cool to see that more. Additionally I loved that they took him back to his horror roots, that's two of my fave IPs that have gone back to their horror roots in recent years (Incredible Hulk being the other) for smashing success!
I've been a fan since 1969 when I first saw "Mothra vs Godzilla." Then named "Godzilla vs The Thing." And for me I got teary eyed when I saw the Toho logo that big on the screen. So for me this film was epic in terms of everything. This Kaiju loving heart was overwhelmed by the film and by the mastery of the acting, directing, story....everything.
True Godzilla fans don't compare the different Godzilla movies; we just enjoy them.
But what about All Monsters Attack?
2:40 “I don’t still play with it or anything” says so after playing with it for the Intro. 😂😂👀💞
This is way better then any of monster verse stuff hands downs; my wife who I had to drag to the theaters is now telling her friends to go see this lol.
I have that same toy and had it so long I have no idea where my family got it 😂😂😂
The first Godzilla movie to ever make me cry actual tears while watching it!!!
on effects, something i immediately noticed, was that his tail moves like it's being lifted by a wire. i loved that.
Damn. Not the biggest of Godzilla but Just booked imax tickets with everyone saying it being amazing. Really hyped. Thx for the review 👍
What an intro 😂
Godzilla Minus One was a very good movie ❤❤❤❤❤
Phenomenal film. Ready for a round 2
This was an amazing film, now we need a Godzilla vs Gamera movie. Finally
It's a wide release, but it's only getting a one week showing in most areas.
Your intro was everything 😂😂😂
Just saw this movie and loved it!!
I saw it yesterday, very good. And its run in the US has been extended!
I saw it in the early 4DX release (which was less distracting than I expected). This is probably just initial hype but it cleared my top 5 easy. This may change but off the bat'd I go:
1. Gojira
2. Minus One
3. Shin Godzilla
4. vs. Destroyah
5. vs. Hedorah
Going to watch it again in standard sometime this week to see if that affects my opinion. I won't talk about the film too much to avoid spoilers for others but I really loved that despite being horrific and and depressing most of the time its main theme was affirmation of life and striving to go forward. It was just the right film for me to see currently, definitely needed that boost.
Saw it in 4dx it was awesome!
Godzilla Minus One was not made by hollyweird weird , so of course it will be a hit!
Godzilla be ballin 🏀
Guess it’s time to view this sooner or later
Sooner. It was really good.
The human characters really make Godzilla Minus One worth remembering for years to come.
Also: Godzilla ain’t Mr Pink.
He’s MR WHITE
Let's go! I can't wait to see this movie
I've been saying Shin was the better version of the original movie, and this was definitely better than shin.
Watched it last night, i had heard of the great reviews but was so shook. I grew up on Godzilla, this was the first time i was rooting for the human characters to take him down. He was terrifying. The characters were all wonderful. When i left i thought it was great but I've been thinking and thinking about it. Am seriously thinking of going to watch it again
こちら日本！
観に行って下さってありがとうございます！！
Please go see and support this movie while you can! Show the studios we want REAL stories and good writing!
Great movie! Go OUT and see this in the theater 💯
This Godzilla movie is on the top of the mountain with the other two greatest monster movies of modern film, which i believe are JAWS and Jurassic Park.You need to see this one in the theater, lunch or dinner and popcorn and soda , the whole thing. This movie is worth it.
I found myself very attached to the little girl and the mechanic guy of all people. He was fantastic.
Awesome show.
Was just thinking how memorable the characters were, and how rare that is now. I liked "Doc" and the guy from the boat with the mustache.
Can’t wait to see it on Wednesday
Finally good human characters!
It moved to my number one spot just based on the parts without Godzilla. Biollante and Shin were my two favorites but this one just blew me away. Going to see it again in IMAX tomorrow, since I saw it in RPX originally. Was going to go Standard but I'm glad I went the better viewing route.
My only issue with the movie was Godzilla wasn’t in it that much
I did notice that Godzilla's movement looked like a guy moving in a suit at certain points.
It finally released in the UK on the 15th. I went to see it at my city's IMAX. Bruh... it was... immaculate...
I dunno I definitely think Minus One's atomic breath tops Shin's rocket take off space laser breath lol. That first scene with the destroyer specifically captures the totality of the aftermath when it's used for me.
I saw Shin and I liked it, it was fine...but I just don't see how anyone can compare it with this Oscar-winner.
Except for Noriko in the hospital all bandaged up with not a bruise in sight...
That one was because she got mutated from the atomic breath after math… which left us a cliff hanger hopefully for another film
Simply the best Godzilla movie ever
It was awesome no words on this godzilla minus one movie was the best of all Godzilla's movies
Dude I'd love to see you do one of your retrospectives on All the Godzilla movies!!
This may be the one time I've ever watched a Goji film, and felt impending dread when the theme would kick off, or Godzilla would show up.
We finally feel the fear of the monster through the characters, and that's what I've been missing from the Monsterverse.
It's been a great weekend, for sure. Minus One might be my favorite of the entire series, and while I was Chrismas shopping yesterday, I found a Godzilla vs King Ghidorah (1991) Japanese poster at a local comic shop, which is now framed and hanging proudly in my living room. I've wanted a Heisei poster for ages.
When the music kick in i felt like a 5 year old kid again unforgettable
Such an amazing movie. I laughed and teared up a few times. Best movie of the year by far, and definitely best Godzilla movie ever.
Did you see Love and Monsters? Looks amazing and cost $25 million
I'm from Germany and honestly i would have loved to watch this with subtitles we only get dubbed movies here most of the time and it's really hard to even see hollywood in their original version here because they dub everything.
Shin Godzilla is my favorite version, but Minus One is my favorite movie now. I never had tears in a Godzilla movie before
SAME about godzilla CGI still feeling like man in suit. LOVED it. And G's man-hands felt very Shin, too, which made me feel concerned for Noriko considering her neck at the end. 😱
My husband is a huge Godzilla fan and wants to go see this movie for his birthday this weekend. I could take or leave (usually preferably leave) Godzilla but I am genuinely excited to go see this with him.
Fun fact, the budget is only $15 million. 😂
I had to travel an hour to the closest theater that was playing it but it was so worth it! I needed this film to wash out the garbage that has been monarch...
If we’re going with the timeline, Minus One event predates the 1954 Godzilla attack….. Even the Godzilla v King Ghidorah touched base on 1945 encounter by both Japanese Army and US Navy with a pre-irradiated Godzillasaurus…
Saw this film yesterday, and wow, did I love it. This and The First Slam Dunk are my favorite films I've seen all year, with Oppenheimer third. As a Godzilla normie (I've seen the 1954 Gojira, Godzilla 2000, Shin Godzilla, and the Monsterverse films before Minus One), this is hands down the best for me since the 1954 Gojira. Easy 9/10 for me.
The King has never been better!!
The writing of the movie and characters was wonderful
Well I'll be ....an articulate, level headed review from a knowledgeable person. Thank you. Subscribed
70年の記念すべき時に年老いた怪獣王は世界の怪獣王に返り咲いた
それだけで涙か出そうになる
I hope Hollywood doesn't hop on the band wagon to miss up the monster verse. By over producing horrible movies
this was my first non legendary godzilla movie and fuck man it was good, my 2nd favorite this year I think
Going into Godzilla Minus One, my top 5 Favorites were 1 - Godzilla 1985/TRoG (will always be Number 1 it got me into Godzilla!), 2 - Gojira/G:KotM 56, 3 - Shin Godzilla, 4 - G:KotM 2019, and 5 - Final Wars. The more I watch Minus One in the theaters the more my head hurts on rearranging my top 5!
This is a film that I might never watch again because it hurts to watch. It is, ultimately, about many real things, that happened to many real people, and it concludes with calling us to make a better world in which none of that ever happens again.
That said, I do hope not every Godzilla movie hereafter is as heavy as this one. Godzilla can be many things, which is a strength of the character. This movie is a triumph, but more "fun", "this is how we live with the world of nuclear power, which Godzilla is," type stories would be a good breather between the important films about "war is awful and then Man made the most destructive technology imaginable", because this is a painful film
The little girl got to me. Almost teared up.
0:03 Hey! I have that Godzilla!😂
2:27 oh wow! It’s the same figure model, but mine’s abit bigger 😮. Had no clue they came in such different sizes!
I think Ryan would like to *BE* Godzilla, what do you guys think Ryan would do if he was Godzilla? Destroy the world? Just live out in the wilderness eating bears?
Oscar value...
@intro I have that exact toy, it sometimes visits my dnd table lol.
We honestly just need to give japan its monster back the west ruined godzilla but japan restores him everytime
I still have that Imperialism Godzilla toy, but a bigger version than that one. Though I also have the first Bandai one from 1983 that was made in all rubber, as well as a Bandai one from the same year based on 1964 Godzilla vs Mothra
Hands down, the best Godzilla movie I have seen. My wife doesn't care for Godzilla or Kaiju movies and she loved it, she even cried a few times during the movie.
Every Godzilla movie except Shin Godzilla is an analogy for the horrors of the atomic bomb.
Shin was different. It was an analogy bout the Fukushima nuclear disaster and the government's inability to deal with the situation or help the population. Hence the endless, frustrating meetings, committees, studies, and other procrastiations by the government in Shin. The anger of the japanese people towards the government after Fukushima was so great that Shin won Best Picture in Japan.
In Godzilla - Minus One, Godzilla starts out as a force of nature, violent and revenge driven. Then Godzilla is mutated by the Hydrogen bomb test (you can hear Godzilla scream when the bomb goes off) and becomes much, much, larger, is the empodyment of nuclear weapons. and driven totally by rage. Godzilla is unbelievably terryfying from that point on.
The humans in the story are completely helpless until the very end when they figure out what to do, but the movie is more about the human condition than just a "monster kill" type of movie. This is a very human-centric movies and the story is very, very relatable.
See this in the theater. The score is sooo powerful, the movie is well worth your money.
Out of 10 stars - well 10 isn't enough.
10:00 Ryan, Godzilla is *literally* a guy in a suit.
Yes it is a movement-capture suit that he's wearing, and CGI is layered over it. However one reason for the low budget is that a lot of the effects are real (guy in a suit) or animatronic, and then there is a final overlay of SFX. There's a Japanese video on UA-cam that tells a bit about how they did some of the SFX stuff. Search for the words ゴジラ-1.0 Behind the scenes
It looks phenomenally more real and menacing to me than anything done fully in CGI in Hollywood honestly.
There is absolutely no way anyone can have any doubt that the atomic breath in Minus One is light years beyond Shin. No way at all. It's not even close.
I will be waiting till the last moment to go watch it. I need to be the only one inside the showing room. I need to be cursing Godzilla out, that is my type of love I have with it. I do not want to make other people mad so I need to be alone with Godzilla. Hahahahaha
DUDE I have that same Godzilla figure in the opening of the video LMFAO I HAVE THAT
I really liked Shin Godzilla and this new film I love it just as much. Probably more actually because I loved the characters.
Loved it!!!!! This story has heart which is so badly needed today!!
Better than any garbage out of Hollywood.
Monarch series? ... I was dragging myself through it and fell asleep Episode 4 and 5.
