Overwhelming Destruction and Unbridled Carnage: The Perfect Viewing Experience

by countess_eva countess_eva is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, , Dec 23 '06
Pros: Excellent characterization, imaginative storyline, edge of the seat action.
Cons: The movie ends.
Having spent my childhood immersed in the Godzilla experience, I was delighted to discover this remake and purchased it with extreme haste. My high expectations were not disappointed, and I feel that despite the numerous negative comments that have ...

Godzilla? Not even close.

by desslok desslok is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, , Mar 06 '07
Pros: It's not two hours long!
Cons: The crimes against humanity this film commits cannot be summed up in 15 words.
Ladies and Gentlemen, for completeness sake I have said that I am review every Godzilla movie released. From the old school Black and White movie with Raymond Burr to Godzilla: Final Wars, no frame shall escape my gaze. From the glorious to the hideous, ...

An oversized mess....Godzilla...SMWO II

by scotte1218 , Jan 05 '05
Pros: Initial Godzilla appearance, special effects
Cons: Plot, script, direction, acting, boring screenplay
It seems that for some reason, every few decades or so, Hollywood comes up with the not-so-bright idea to remake a cinematic classic. Whether it's Dracula, King Kong, or Steven Speilberg's upcoming War of the Worlds, if Hollywood ...

Godzilla Vs. Ferris Bueller

by flash-hammer Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jul 05 '05
Pros: Special Effects
Cons: Basically everything else
Do you remember the day you realised that sometimes the world can be a really, really crappy place full of really, really stupid people? I do, and in this review, I'm going to talk about it. Sometimes it's tough being a fan of Godzilla movies, they ...

“Godzilla”: Size Does Matter, But Apparently Not To Emmerich (E&E W/O)

by dbcint , Aug 10 '04
Pros: I was rooting for Godzilla to lay waste the entire movie…
Cons: … which isn’t exactly the point of such a film
No film I’ve seen of recent has been more exc ruciating to watch than Roland Emmerich’s remake of ”Godzilla”, and this I shall be entering this review into the “Excellent & Excruciating ...

by WulfsDen Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 29 '05
Pros: A decent, enjoyable big-monster movie
Cons: It isn't Godzilla
Homeless monster molests Lady Liberty, destroys several buildings, and nests in subway system. Mr. Ken Fujiwara, a spokesman for Godzilla Corp, says that the "big guy" was vacationing in the South Pacific at the time, and was not involved in the ...

Deluxe Feature-Laden Version -- Godzilla's Back!

by dlstewart Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Mar 08 '08
Pros: lots of action, special effects hold up, Jean Reno steals the movie
Cons: acting could be much better, movie too long
My brother and I used to sit in front of the television, mesmerized by the old Godzilla films. When I saw the commercials for the new Godzilla movie, I thought it looked interesting. It wasn't until a few years after it had left the theaters ...

Uh-oh, There Goes Tokyo! Actually Manhattan

by BaronSamedi3 , Nov 17 '08
Pros: The mini-zillas are cool
Cons: The first hour
I don't think I have to waste any of your time telling you that the 1998 version of Godzilla with Matthew Broderick and Jean Reno which was directed by Roland Emmerich isn't the classic Japanese Godzilla your parents - and probably you too, if ...

More bark than bite

by Chad9976 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 03 '08
Pros: A few thrilling moments; some funny moments; impressive SFX
Cons: Cliche, predictable story; mediocre performances; seems to copy other films.
For most filmmakers the task of turning aged and simple concepts into something original would prove difficult. However, the creative team of writer/director Roland Emmerich and writer/producer Dean Devlin are not discouraged by such obstacles as they ...

Broderick: The Bad - Godzillified?

by lansky2000 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 10 '03
Pros: This new and improved Godzilla got way more press than the Jap versions...
Cons: Unisex Godzilla was a wet blanket...
Tracing the career of the illustrious Mr. Broderick, we find that he missed the boat and fell into the sea of ignominy like so many teen idols before him. Much like Ralph Macchio (or Gary Coleman?), he was most unfortunate that he wasn't able to rely on...

Monster Edition DVD

by xenoranger , Apr 06 '07
Pros: Good Action
Animated Series Included
Cons: Simple Plot
1 Good Bonus Feature
Stomping through the streets of Tokyo was one thing, but now New York! Godzilla has his work cut out for him in the 1998 film named after the mythical sea dragon. The main plot is painfully basic. Huge reptile clomps through New York destroying things ...

NooooooooZilla

by Der_Kaiser , Dec 10 '00
Pros: Special Effects
Cons: The Script
On occasion it is disappointing to see what little can be accomplished when a studio has the opportunity to combine a good cast, top director and plenty of money. Any reasonable person would think that when there are so many factors favoring the...

This Version Smelled Fishy

by rcbrian , Jan 23 '00
Pros: Special Effects
Cons: Story, Action Slow
I had waited with great expectations for the updated movie version of Godzilla to hit the video stores. Even though I didn't get a chance to catch it in the movies I figured it would be a pretty good movie. I had always liked the old Godzilla movies...

Lameness Personified

by silentrascal , Aug 25 '02
Pros: Very good special effects.
Cons: Poor casting and acting. Poor dialogue. Absurd situations.
The 1998 Emmerich-Devlin film "Godzilla" remains one of the most overhyped, disappointing, and all-around lame films I've seen in some time. At least a year in advance of its theatrical release, its trailer was being shown in theaters and it genuinely...

Godawful

by Kurt_Komoda , Feb 13 '00
Pros: special effects that make you go "oh, neat"
Cons: annoying characters, a Godzilla that doesn't come near to living up to the name, huge leaps of logic, the film makers' reliance on special effects that make you go "oh, neat"
Like a lot of children, I grew up on movies from Japan's famed Toho Studios: Godzilla and his gang messing it up in Tokyo and knocking down Tokyo Tower for the 5th or 6th time. When I first heard of the American production of "Godzilla," my...
