Y'know, I'm in the definite minority here when I say that I really enjoyed GRA. All my life until I reached my mid-twenties I never even knew this movie existed. A second black-and-white Godzilla film? Are you kidding me? When I finally saw it I felt like I was in another world. How did this Godzilla film escape my detection? Anyway, about the film. I liked the dark atmosphere the most. Godzilla was scary in this film, much like his first appearance. The scene where he wades ashore amidst the fog was downright spooky. The creepy and somber score also added to the melodramatic atmosphere. A lot of reviewers knock the characters as being to bland however I disagree where one of these characters is concerned. The character of Kobayashi is entertaining, endearing, and very likable. His irrepressable spirit and great outlook makes his final destiny all the more tragic. Let's also not forget that this film is the first appearance of fan-favorite Angilas. Sure it doesn't end too well for our spiny friend but we all know he returns so no biggie. A cool film in my view that I've enjoyed watching multiple times. Can't wait for the DVD to be released along with the fantastic GHIDRAH: THE THREE-HEADED MONSTER! |
