''Godzilla'' 1954 is the codifier of the kaiju genre, but not necessarily perfect. Because it's well-earned praises have often been spoke, little need to repeat here and instead note the blemishes. Several characters are fairly inconsequential and the pacing suffers a noticeable lull in the middle, and the electric fence comes out of nowhere.

On a side note, I don't at all dislike "Godzilla - King of the Monsters!". It does tone down several scenes, but the nuclear origin is blatantly obvious, with Burr and company giving fairly solid performances. Understanding why it was made also furthered my appreciation, and I consider it one of the most tasteful Americanizations. 4/5 well deserved. | |||

Feels a bit like watching the original 1960s crossover and the original Mothra at the same time, and while some aspects are lesser for sure; others are better. Child character and the family dynamic isn't at all shabby and the unintentional hilarity of Mothra and Battra having a whole prophecy involved in their fated battle and the fate of humanity at risk... only for Godzilla to angrily stomp his way into the middle of it and refuse to leave. 3/5. | |||

Seen others like VaderRaptor do this, so I might as well give it a go.
Showa Era
Godzilla (1954)
Godzilla 1954 is the codifier of the kaiju genre, but not necessarily perfect. Because it's well-earned praises have often been spoke, little need to repeat here and instead note the blemishes. Several characters are fairly inconsequential and the pacing suffers a noticeable lull in the middle, and the electric fence comes out of nowhere. But these are relatively just nitpicks. 4.5/5 easily.
On a side note, I don't at all dislike "Godzilla - King of the Monsters!". It does tone down several scenes, but the nuclear origin is blatantly obvious, with Burr and company giving fairly solid performances. Understanding why it was made also furthered my appreciation, and I consider it one of the most tasteful Americanizations. 4/5 well deserved.

As a Godzilla movie, it's bad. 0/5 due to mangling character appearance, actions, reactions, and abilities with only the origin intact.
