Review of Godzilla, King of the Monsters! (1956) by Bryan M — 12 Sep 2007
This relates to the original "Gojira", not the re-edited US version: a dark and serious film of considerable power. No simple fun monster flick like it's many sequels, this is a genuine horror allegory over-flowing with barely contained atomic anxiety.
A film that should not be under-estimated, it is well worth seeing. Magnificent music helps drive along this classic tale of nature's revenge upon atomic age humanity. Superb. A masterpiece.
