Ford Brody, a Navy bomb expert, has just reunited with his family in San Francisco when he is forced to go to Japan to help his estranged father, Joe. Soon, both men are swept up in an escalating crisis when an ancient alpha predator arises from the sea to combat malevolent adversaries that threaten the survival of humanity. The creatures leave colossal destruction in their wake, as they make their way toward their final battleground: San Francisco.

A pretty solid start to the new Godzilla franchise. It was definitely pretty cool and action filled. I enjoyed it quite a bit. My only big problem with it is the parasites weren’t very cool as the main antagonist. They didn’t have any of the main antagonists of the Godzilla franchise, but I’ll look past it because it has some really cool fight scenes

Big lizard going crazy. But why do they put his name as the movie’s name and he only shows up for like 25 minutes

Captures the scale well, has some great set pieces, strong visuals, but the human story was pretty weak
