Gloria (Anne Hathaway) is an out-of-work party girl who finds herself in relationship trouble with her sensible boyfriend, Tim (Dan Stevens), and is forced to move back to her tiny hometown to get her life back on track. She reconnects with childhood friend Oscar (Jason Sudeikis), a good-natured bar owner with a coterie of drinking buddies (Tim Blake Nelson and Austin Stowell), and resumes her drinking lifestyle.

One night, Gloria is horrified to discover that her every move at a local playground is being mimicked on a catastrophic scale by the rampaging beast.

Reception
Colossal currently has a 81% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 42 reviews.[3] The site's Critical Consensus reads, "Colossal's singular strangeness can be disorienting, but viewers who hang on may find that its genre-defying execution -- and Anne Hathaway's performance -- is well worth the ride."
Lawsuit
Voltage Pictures was sued by Toho over the film for allegedly infringing on Toho's ownership of Godzilla. When pitching the film, Voltage frequently referred to Godzilla and even described Colossal as a Godzilla film in interviews. In addition, Voltage included images of Godzilla from Legendary Pictures' 2014 film in concept artwork and posters for the film.[4] A settlement was reached on October 30, 2015, for an undisclosed sum of money.[5] Changes made to the script as a result of the lawsuit are unknown, though it likely caused the location of the kaiju attacks to change from Tokyo to Seoul.
