Godzilla: King of the Monsters - Fun, Dumb, and Ironic

Send us a Question!MOVIE REVIEW: Michael Dougherty has said Godzilla: King of the Monsters is to Godzilla (2014) as Aliens is to Alien, and while I can understand the logic, I don't know if the comparison works entirely. At the very least, both films feature inventive motion capture, if you can call 3 actors playing the individual Ghidorah heads inventive. Trivia aside, how does Godzilla: King of the Monsters handle in comparison to not only Godzilla (2014), but even the much appreciated 1954 original? Come join me as I contemplate what it means for a franchise to change so much over the years, and whether or not King of the Monsters is a worthy addition to a much-loved franchise. Godzilla: King of the Monsters is Rated PG-13 for sequences of monster action violence and destruction, and for some language. It features Vera Farmiga, Ken Watanabe, Sally Hawkins, Millie Bobby Brown, and Bradley Whitford. Directed by Michael Dougherty. Tune in Wednesday nights for new episodes of Cinematic Doctrine!
