I just have to chime in to say that Godzilla Minus One is a masterpiece in terms of story telling and VFX. You don’t have to be a fan of Godzilla or anything in particular, this movie is 10/10 in all categories. Blew my fucking mind!

  Fair point but GM1 is definitely outside of the “big spectacle movie” industry, with a very moderate budget and a big emphasis on story telling. It’s really an amazing movie for sure

  Not a fan of the “modern” style Godzilla movies. This one was really good.
