It’s all over on Disney Plus this weekend, as 2022’s biggest meme-turned-box-office flop hits the streamer’s catalog. If you want to see what all the fuss is about, you can give it a little try without spending any extra money.

“Godzilla Minus One” was my first Godzilla movie, and it really shocked me. So while I’m waiting for the latest Kaiju movie to be streamed, I’m checking out my vast library of older movies. One of them, his 2014 Hollywood film Godzilla, has just appeared on Netflix.
What stands out to me is the series’ theme of larger-than-life action supported by an all-too-human story. Ford Brody (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), a Navy explosives specialist, is separated from his family in San Francisco in order to help his estranged father Joe (Bryan Cranston) in Japan. notice. As the two uncover a decades-long cover-up, a monstrous creature emerges and leaves a trail of untold destruction in its wake. These creatures converge on the ultimate battlefield: San Francisco.
