The rare monster movie that also succeeds as a riveting human drama. If not for the giant firebreathing dinosaur stomping around Tokyo, this would still be a great movie with just the people. The direction is commendable and the acting is excellent. The action scenes are gripping and at times even suspenseful. Although the CGI is not always polished because of the smaller budget, Godzilla is as menacing a presence in this movie as the shark from 'JAWS'.

There are quite a few people out there who consider this the best Godzilla film ever made - and I'm inclined to side with them. The reason this resonates so well is the human element - post-war trauma, shame and grief - delivered with plenty of emotion. And don't worry, though Godzilla may not have a ton of screen time, when he's there, it's intense. A truly stunning achievement.

"Minus One" restores Godzilla to his former glory, as both a warning symbol of the nuclear age and a testament to the courage and survival of those who lived through it.
