GODZILLA (The Kid Reviews)

2013 / Director. Gareth Edwards.
Review by Sean Dumee (12 years old)

I recently asked my son if he would like to contribute a review for GODZILLA. These are his words. 

Godzilla was for me and all the real fans out there AWESOME! It was better than the 1998 Hollywood film, which was the worst Godzilla film I've seen. In comparison it crapped all over the 1998 movie. In this film the Japanese Godzilla came back to life, the way it was a humanoid monster again and breathing fire topped it off like the icing on a cake. My only quarrel was Godzilla's origin. The traditional Godzilla was a komodo dragon that was a subject of nuclear radiation because of testing nukes in the pacific and in this one he predated dinosaurs (T-Rex etc.). The lust for radiation comes from when earth was young the surface was high in radiation (they lived on it). In all the movie was the best Hollywood Godzilla but needed the floppy rubber spine which would have 100% won me over but I'm a comfortable 90%.
