 A good movie April 28, 2008
We usually only buy movies we are willing to watch over and over again. This is one of those movies.
 If you loved it, here's why everybody else didn't. April 17, 2008

It's hysterical how the 1 and 5 star reviews are nearly equal on this pile of trash. Not that I expect anything else, as I believe 85%+ of people are idiots. The even split simply means that all of the 15% as well as 2 out of 5 idiots found this film to be the garbage that it is. That means the 4 and 5 star rating are from the dumbest of the dumb. And if that means you, please stop apologizing for bad films by saying dumb things like 'it's a popcorn movie' (popcorn isn't stupid) and 'why look for deep meaning in a film with with a giant lizard?'. This only proves how little thought these viewers use. The original 'Gojira' film had the giant lizard, too, and the whole story was an alegory on the threat of nuclear weapons. This one is an alegory on P.T.Barnum's most famous phrase (look it up). There is no reason an effects-laden action film can't also have some thought involved. Michael Bay and Roland Emmerich are overpaid putzes producing 'junk movies' for the braindead that walk among us. Lowest common denominator product. The rest of us expect more for our $10. This one insults you right to your face, and you thank them for it?

A big mess/Stupid Movie/Jurassic Park Rip Off!!!!!!!!! April 3, 2008

This American reimagining to the 1954 masterpiece has amazing CGI effects, but that doesn't make it good. Instead of Godzilla we get a giant CGI iguana running around New York city, who's only purpose is to lay eggs and not destroy buildings. Even when Godzilla makes his/her's first appearance he/she still doesn't still anything and Godzilla has lost all it's power which means godzilla can't kill people with atomic breath all this tuna head can do is runaway from the military,because it knows it's weak. Anyways enough about the giant iguana in the movie nobody seems to be surpise or scared that a gigantic iguana is attacking NYC everyone acts like it's a normal thing. Can you see why everyone hates this movie and also somewhere in the middle of the movie Godzilla's egg hatches a bunch of mini Godzilla's start running around chasing the main characters just because they smelled like fish, right there everyone should know that the director tried to rip off Jurassic Park. Godzilla's babies even looked like the raptures in the movie.
Before I finish this review I going to say that not even the plot made sense,because in the movie Godzilla is a mutated iguana which is a reptile, but Mathew Brodrick's character keeps saying it's an anphibian throughout the whole movie even though it's an iguana.

Looking Forward To Godzilla On Blu-ray March 27, 2008

I enjoyed Godzilla 1998 during it's initial movie theater run. Yeah, I too was a little surprised by the new look of the creature, but I was sure glad it didn't look like a guy in an overstuffed rubber suit using the tail to rock back and forth on his heels...I'll leave that to the Godzilla purists who are much better at suspending disbelief. Don't get me wrong, I thought the original Godzilla movie was great, but I was five years old at the time!
Godzilla 1998 was scheduled for a late March 2008 release on Blu-ray, and then Sony postponed it with a TBA. I think it will look fantastic in High-Def...if or when it ever gets here.
