Godzilla Minus One (Released 12/1/23)

This movie was way better than I expected. Normally the human story is just filler in between Godzilla attacks. This time around it is a genuinely compelling story with Godzilla as the background threat. The visuals are spot on for only a $15 million budget. Everything about this movie is spectacular. It dragged here and there but overall, it was a great character movie with Godzilla doing his thing.
