Godzilla has an unusual place in movie history. Originally a Japanese creation, all attempts by the West to transfer it to their own have been a disaster, with the 1998 Roland Emmerich version being the prime example. Despite this it’s fame appears to have only grown, with the Internet playing a major part in that, along with help from institutions like the BFI, which in 2005 released the original uncut Japanese version to a British audience for the first time. Therefore it was surely only a matter of time before the big lizard got another attempt to hit your cinema screens, however few might have predicted that the director put in charge of such a vision would be Gareth Edward’s, whose only previous movie was a monster movie, but was made for around $500,000 compared to the $160 million that Warner supplied for Godzilla.
