Godzilla ( 2014) All the spoilers in the world review
Jun 06, 2014 11:12
[lt's a love story, baby just say... no.]Watched a while ago. The other watcher thought it was the Fluffiest Monster movie ever. I thought it was a horrible no good very Bad Romance tragedy. Horrific, even.
Picture, if you will, your OTP of choice in a Vaguely Modern monster movie AU. They are star-crossed lovers, meant for each other since before they were born.
But then they are discovered. The evil scientists descend and forcibly separate and imprison them, oceans apart.
Still, against the odds, they break out and find each other again.
BUT THEN, the most annoying and persistent sleazy old dude, like, old enough to be their grandparent, tracks them down and inserts himself in the middle of all their dates - the romantic picnics, the quiet strolls through the city... He hits on them separately and together, gets handsy, suggests threesomes, and generally makes a nuisance of himself, urgh.
In the climatic finale, suddenly our young lovers discover their crib has been attacked by army ants, omg. And our hitherto harmless sleazeball turns out to an emetaphiliac serial killer.
THE END
Somewhere while all this is going on, John Winchester runs about uselessly chasing his own demons, while his son Dean-Sam follows him wringing his hands and wondering if his own wife and kid are dead or hate him yet. Fortunately, Jessie does not turn into ceiling barbeque.
Everyone except for Our Tragic lovers lives happily ever after.
REALLY THE END
side note: very impressive CGI employed to make it look like there really is a giant man in a rubber suit stomping around the cities being stomped.
