The king is back. THE KING. IS. BACK.

Just in time for Godzilla's 60th birthday, Legendary Pictures has made yet another Kaiju movie and a new Godzilla movie.

So, let's start it, here's my review:

Gareth Edwards has probably made the best Americanized Godzilla movie yet. One that Emmerich can't even beat. Edwards just put so much subtle references to Godzilla's origins. Like the line "In 1954, we awakened something." and the caption of the newscast at the end of the movie.

"King of the Monsters."

Bryan Cranston's performance, albeit being in a minor role, was a good performance. Although we don't actually set our standards low for his performance, Aaron's performance, and the king's performance(which is Godzilla, by the way).

And speaking of Aaron Taylor-Johnson, his performance was also satisfying and fantastic, so fantastic that you'd probably forget that he was Kick-Ass a few movies back. And his chemistry with Elizabeth Olsen was also "kilig-worthy", or romantic, which means everybody will feel awkward when Age of Ultron comes out next year.

And of course, Godzilla isn't the only kaiju to come and destroy, San Francisco, parts of Hawaii and other places, he brought Cockroach-zilla(MUTO) with him too.

Speaking of MUTO, the fights with Godzilla vs. MUTO was outstanding, so much better than fights in Pacific Rim. And also, the king's atomic breath was so cool, the 13-year-old in me was screaming and shouting!

Okay, I'm actually 13 years old, but it didn't stop me from screaming and shouting!

And lastly, the opening credits actually made me think of a Godzilla TV series, good job Gareth!

Generally, this movie will beat the expectations of people who think this will be the next Godzilla(1998)

9.3/10

Godzilla. Now Showing.
