Godzilla Plot Synopsis:
In 1999, the Janjira nuclear plant was mysteriously destroyed with most hands lost including supervisor Joe Brody's colleague and wife, Sandra. Years later, Joe's son, Ford, a US Navy ordnance disposal officer, must go to Japan to help his estranged father who obsessively searches for the truth of the incident. In doing so, father and son discover the disaster's secret cause on the wreck's very grounds. This enables them to witness the reawakening of a terrible threat to all of Humanity, which is made all the worse with a second secret revival elsewhere. Against this cataclysm, the only hope for the world may be Godzilla, but the challenge for the King of the Monsters will be great even as Humanity struggles to understand the destructive ally they have.
Gareth EdwardsGodzilla is looking to bring Godzilla back to it"s roots and hopefully he can pull it off. Godzilla will face off against monstrous creatures who threaten mankind. I like that one-liner as it already tells Godzilla fans and newbies that this Godzilla movie will be huge in comparison to previous Godzilla films. It will be like the classic Godzilla movies where Godzilla fights other creatures, but this time around it will be shot in high definition and have all the updated special effects. I cannot wait to see the 4K edition of this movie when it releases.
So after getting all the trailers and photos we can honestly say that Godzilla should be an awesome film.
