Godzilla Savior Of Man Kind!

Members of every generation will find something to love in Godzilla, I mean who doesn't love watching a giant reptile battle it out with monsters while a hunky marine makes his way home to his wife? You've got action, gore, tragedy, romance, this film had it all. Directed by Gareth Edwards, 2014's Godzilla has thrilled fan's of all ages who were excited to see the King of the reptiles on the silver screen once more, this time enhanced with today's technology. Every frame was bone chilling and if you didn't feel a little sick when you saw how big he was then you need to take a moment. 

The cast was amazing, with Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston kicking off the conspiracy theories in his role as Joe Brody, and his on screen son Ford Brody played by Kick Ass' Aaron Taylor-Johnson.  Cranston and Johnson nailed the father-son chemistry right out the gate, though limited there interaction was enjoyable and somewhat a tragic fan favorite. 

Elizabeth Olsen the soon to be Scarlet Witch of the Avengers played Johnson's on screen wife as Elle Brody, supportive and busy doing her own job it was refreshing to see these two have such amazing chemistry especially since they will be playing the Maximoff Twins in Avengers Age of Ultron. 

The effects were stellar, making you feel like these tragedies were taking place in your own backyard.  Though if you can't handle some serious loud noises then this isn't for the faint of heart but maybe for the hard of hearing. 

Fans were thrilled to see many references made through out the film to the original Godzilla movies produced in 1954. The film was so well received we can already look forward to a sequel which will begin production in the near future with Gareth Edwards once again at the helm.
