ა,ერიკაში შედგა უკვე ნაადრევი ჩვენებები და ძირითაად პოზიტიური გამოხმაურებები აქვს ფილმს. აგერ ერთ-ერთი მათგანი.
http://forums.boxoffice.com/index.php?/top...oilers/page-350So I went to attend an early Godzilla screening. The screening was about half full, all adults.
It was delayed by about 45 minutes, because of problems with the projector supposedly, so we all sat around impatiently playing on our smartphones till suddenly the logo came up out of nowhere.
This review is spoiler free, though if you have a question related with the movie's story, PM me or spoiler-tag a question. I won't discuss it openly for obvious reasons.
To start off, the CGI. This is the type of movie you need to see in theater, on big screen. Those Youtube clips and trailers you've been seeing do not do justice at all (I think they were using old footage). The amount of detail on Godzilla was insane (I heard it took months to do the scales apparently) and the other ummm... monsters were also fantastic looking. The visuals looked great for the entire film, I'll definitely rewatch in IMAX, because this was freaking made for the biggest screen. See it on theater if you ever plan on seeing the movie, because I suspect TVs and small computer monitors won't be enough.
The screening was in 2D, so I can't really comment on the 3D.
The soundtrack by Desplat for the movie is pretty good, especially when the Big G makes his appearances. In a way the soundtrack sounded like the human race was contemplating what to do or panicking. I don't remember the OST using the old theme song for the Japanese Godzillas sorry.
The dialogue was good, but now for performances.
Cranston was obviously great as usual. He is pretty convincing lets just say, I don't want to spoil a certain part where he is glorious in his acting. Oslen and Taylor Johnson were surprisingly great. Watanabe was okay, not amazing. The guy who played the admiral, Strathairn was decent enough. If you look at the events from their point of view, lets just say its pretty fascinating and terrifying.
The scale of the movie was amazing. You got a real sense of chaos. Sites of destruction everywhere, where Big G visited. There was CGI over some destroyed areas, but they also used tons of extras and made plenty of destroyed sites, that looked real enough, though maybe it was great CGI. Those poor soldiers unable to do squat.
Was there a perfect amount of Godzilla? Hell yes. I was worried to some extent by the early complaints on twitter there wasn't enough, but they were exaggerating or were expecting a 2 hour monster bash. The human factor is usually the key, but Godzilla in the end, is what makes this movie. Its a joy to see him on big screen, in CGI form, back with the western audiences, not like that Zilla. Godzilla also does atomic breath don't worry.
Criticisms, I do wish they showed more Godzilla anyway. The did a effective job of showing him off and now I want a damn sequel.
Good job Edwards. I personally think he nailed the movie and Godzilla.
A
Just a note, this is completely my own opinion. Maybe the mainstream audience won't take it the same way as I did. I'm a big Godzilla fan, so I'm obviously biased.
Looking forward to discussing the story in the RTM thread.
EDIT: 1000th post! Corrected a few mistakes. For criticisms there were a few nitpicky things I want to discuss later, but they weren't disruptive to the plot, its for my own personal amusement.
