The old Japanese Godzilla" films
may have had cheesy special effects
and hilarious costumes, but at least
they were capable of portraying
Godzilla as the the monster it as
supposed to be. And the old filIrt.
completely lacking in technology,
were exactly the way "Godzilla" was
mrerint to be seen,
Unfottunately, in this day and age,
good stories and plotlines are at best
only a minor concern and at worst
thrown out completely.
Catering to audiences svho lsatl to
be dazzled for two and a lhalfhours by
impressive special effects has tak
precedence.
But "Godzilla" does not dazzle, as
special effects alone cannot carry the
movie. There is only so much that can
be done with "Godzilla."
The way this movie was presented,
even Will Smith couldn't save
"Gsodzilla" from being a disappoint-
ment.
