(1 - 12) of 12 OFCS Rating: 83% Fresh Page   1   "a pioneering behemoth in the history of Japanese cinema, leaving giant footprints in its trail that many have followed but few have filled so impressively."   Eye for Film   Anton Bitel 2.5/4 "A great boon to monster movie fans, but will have limited appeal to others."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli B "On its fiftieth anniversary, Rialto Pictures rereleases the original, uncut Japanese version of "Gojira" and film geeks everywhere should rejoice."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford "The original Godzilla is quite a grave affair, making the link between the monster's rampage and the nuclear destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki morbidly explicit."   Not Coming to a Theater Near You   Leo Goldsmith high +2 out of -4..+4 "This is a film with some very nice visual imagery and it has become a favorite."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper 3/4 "Everything you have heard about Godzilla is true"   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes 2.5/5 "While the Raymond Burr version is unintentionally funny, the original Japanese-language version is actually a tedious bore. But the Big G is still the king!"   Film Threat   Phil Hall 4/5 "By today's standards, this may feel rather dull and ponderous, but it's actually a remarkably astute film."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline 5/5 "...surprisingly solemn and bitter. It is explicitly a post-Hiroshima nightmare writ large..."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves B "Godzilla is still as relevant a monster as ever."   Projection Booth   Rob Humanick B+ "Kudos to Rialto Pictures for making the effort to bring to light a true classic."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 4/4 "one of the all time greatest monster movies"   sbs.is   Stefan Birgir Stefansson  (1 - 12) of 12 OFCS Rating: 83% Fresh Page   1
