  • It's a great time to be a Godzilla fan. There's a ton of new content. A new Godzilla vs. Kong is on the way, Apple TV’s Monarch is surprisingly good, and Godzilla: Minus One is the best film of the year. Seriously i can't praise that film enough. It took the Godzilla formula and added a great story that's full of emotion, all on a smaller budget than you'd believe. So, if you're still able to see it, definitely do so and support great films. But if you already saw it and you want more, then i got a great list of films for you. I’ve made a list of the best Godzilla movies for you to check out, and believe me, there are plenty to choose from. In total, there are 37 Godzilla flicks. This list consists of the films i feel are the closest to Godzilla Minus One.

    I think the Monsterverse movies will appeal to more people but there’s just something about the Japanese ones-even when they’re bad-that’s missing from the American ones. They’re fun monster movies but the Toho ones are the real deal

      It makes a difference that Japan is polytheist, so G-zilla can be a god. For Judeo-Christian Hollywood, G can only be a monster.

    For me I’m 50/50 with my taste in liking both the serious and fun films in the Godzilla franchise. And depending on the film those sentiments aren’t necessarily exclusive from each other.

    Thanks so much... exactly what I needed!! Godzilla Minus One was my first ever Godzilla movie, I had never even been remotely interested in seeing one before, but after all the glowing reviews, of course I rushed out to see it at soon as it came out here (only last week) in the best Dolby cinema I could!! I LOVED it!!!! So moving, so gripping, and surprisingly deep ... I cried!!! Twice!!! You can imagine that immediately I wondered which one I should see next! I found Godzilla 1985 for free on CZcams, and despite how bad it is I surprisingly kinda enjoyed it!!! Here in France I have heard only bad reviews for Monarch too, but now I absolutely wanna see that as well!! Thanks again!!!

      What are you talking about? The reviews for Monarch are pretty good in France: 3,4/5 Presse & 3,3/5 Spectateurs on AlloCiné. If you want to see Monarch in story order, watch Kong: Skull Island and Godzilla 2014 first. Oh and whatever yo do absolutely watch the original 1954 film.

    I grew up with the Heisei movies .Biolante ,Mothra and vs King Kigdhorah were shown in brazilian tv in the 90's and as kid I was a tokusatsu fan (Kamen Rider Black/RX,Juspion,Jiraiya,Changeman,Flashman were huge here )loved it .
    Minus one is the 2nd best Godzilla.Sightly better than the excellent Shin Godzilla but not as great as the 1954 original.
    The original was darker and more tragic.It was more a disaster movie with great human drama than a monster flick.

    My list of godzilla movies for beginners
    1954 (obviously)
    Gmk
    Godzilla against Mechagodzilla
    And its sequel tokyo sos
    Godzilla final wars
    Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla 1974
    The return of Godzilla 1984 or Godzilla vs Biollante, and then just start watching every heisei movie after those 2. For me the heisei era of godzilla is the best Godzilla era, with the best lore, monster designs, good continuity, and messaging. Just whatch all the heisei movies! Every single one.

      @@bushidoblues9302 Not really, my best guess would be because 85 didn't do too well at the box office, and was more of a rental movie, that and with the darker, and more gory tone of the films, maybe they were afraid of upsetting "Patents Groups"

    Look up the Lucky Dragon No. 5 incident. Only one crew member died in the months following the incident others were sick and had health issues. The issue wasn’t so much the boat mistakenly wandering into the test area, rather the test proved to produce a larger explosion and confirmation than originally thought. The ongoing problem was Conti instead fish especially tuna. Read the arrival in the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists. Good read

      I have very fond memories of seeing Godzilla 2014 in theaters, but it loses everything when you watch it at home now. Typical dialogue, bad characters, effects that don't look as good.
      Agreed gxk looks very cartoony.

      @@d_franco4702 That's completely fair. Shin came out in 2016 and not until 2020 (when I watched it) people were clamoring it was the “best Godzilla film”. Imo it has some of the dumbest human interactions especially compared to Minus One.
      Even so, Minus One has nearly identical plot beats to Jaws. Either way, seeing Godzilla at sea was refreshing and something Shin lacked imo.
