The movie Godzilla was something very different from anything I have seen before. Initially I thought I might actually like the movie, but while watching I began to dislike it more and more! I personally don’t enjoy watching movie’s that are unrealistic from anything I would see during my life today, as well I didn’t love having to read the english subtitles at the bottom of the screen. I do have to say that although I didn’t exactly enjoy the story line of the movie, I can understand and appreciate why it is as famous as it is. The producer Tomoyuki Tanaka and director Ishiro Honda, did a wonderful job making this film, as it was not only a worldwide hit at the time with a series of movies behind it, but a movie that was recreated years later that was just as famous.
Although this movie discussed serious Japanese problems I couldn’t help myself from laughing while watching, the acting was so exaggerated! Even though the acting was a little strange it made me understand the film more, especially because the movie was in a different language and I wasn’t always able to read the english subtitles fast enough. Of course the monster Godzilla did an excellent job acting in this movie along with Momoko Kochi who played Emiko Yamane. Emiko didn’t even need to use dialogue in the film, you could tell exactly how she was feeling from all of the facial expressions she made! It was very interesting to watch.
The music in this movie by Akira lfukube was a very important factor for the film. I mention it because from the specific tone of the music and instruments played the audience was able to acknowledge when Godzilla was entering the scene. The music was very loud, harsh, and disturbing, this was able to symbolize how all of the other individuals living in Japan were feeling at the time from this strange animal.
