So I have heard. In fact, that interests me more than the Godzilla part, although I’m also interested to see how that’s woven into the story.
And considering the original Godzilla is a response to U.S. nuclear weapons, specifically the men killed when the Daigo Fukuryū Maru fishing ship was hit by radioactive fallout from the U.S. Castle Bravo test, that makes sense.
It actually has an interesting portrayal of post-war Japan. Not just a monster movie

(Technically, it only killed one of them, but it killed all 23 eventually.)
I convinced my daughter to watch it with me this afternoon and I’m glad I did because we both enjoyed it.

I definitely did not expect “atomic breath” to be so literal.
