Pros: Excellent characterization, imaginative storyline, edge of the seat action. Cons: The movie ends.

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, ...
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 ...
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 ...

No film Ive seen of recent has been more exc

to watch than Roland Emmerichs remake of Godzilla, and this I shall be entering this review into the Excellent & Excruciating ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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...
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 ...
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...
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...
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...
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...
