Why watch this? This is the BIG ONE! The
Battle Royale! East vs. West. Alpha vs. Alpha!

Dad's Preview:
The presence of humans in this film is really a distraction.
They buzz around like ants, just wasting their (and our) time,
frankly. That said, the monster moments, and their bombastically
epic battles, are FREAKIN' AWESOME! CGI capabilities are almost flawless. As a true fan of
Toho's original
King Kong vs. Godzilla
(1962), I can testify that this movie, though vastly different,
successfully captures the spirit of that classic Kaiju battle
extraordinaire. |
