Review of Godzilla (1998) by Brian E — 18 Oct 2014
Never saw it in the theatres, blind buy on the 4K bluray for $10 - probably due in part to the hype from the 2014 Godzilla. Upon multiple viewings (thanks to my 4yr old) we got our money's worth on this purchase.
Overall disappointing ride, but if I could sum it up, the one thing that made this film absolutely horrible is...the soundtrack! The music is just completely wrong and it creates zero suspense/atmosphere.
For example, at the end when the camera zooms into the last surviving egg amongst the ruins, the music is...happy. The entire film is riddled with this musical disaster. Call it something other than Godzilla and we have a mildly decent monster flick.
What a shame.
