This week we revisit Godzilla from 2014, a kaiju monster film directed by Gareth Edwards and starring Bryan Cranston, Elizabeth Olsen and Ken Watanabe, about an American soldier attempts to return to his family while caught in the crossfire of an ancient rivalry between Godzilla and two parasitic monsters known as MUTOs.
We talk about what captures our imagination when it comes to kaiju movies, the two types of kaiju movies, how the movie is all about family and how this movie provides the spectacle and creativity that is lacking from later movies in the Monsterverse franchise, and much more.
