Review of Godzilla (1998) by Stevie S — 20 May 2013
15 years since its release is it time to reassess the merits of this film? To be far no, it takes itself way to seriously and the plot is all over the place. Characters come and go and you get no real sense of peril.
Yes stuff looks good as it gets blown up by the 'incompetent' US military, but you can't help but find yourself watching a collection of scenes lifted straight from other films, Jurassic Park gets lifted wholesale in places.
I hope the new upcoming American version can remove this bad stain from Gojira's good name.
