My favourite film this summer 2014

My favourite film this summer of 2014 was Godzilla. The reason why I enjoyed this film is because I do personally enjoy old films that are way before my time. Plus I like to enjoy watching the modernised movies they have remade, I also enjoyed the old Godzilla and thought it was exciting, and then they made another film this summer which has a similar story line but different actors, different filming effects and different special effects so it felt like a complete new film to me. I also like the actors in the new film, because I watch a lot of their TV series that they are also in and other films they are included in, like Brian Cranston, he was in “Malcolm in the Middle” as the dad and was a very enjoyable character. He was also in the big TV series Breaking Bad for a couple of years as a big time drug producer, a mysterious character that was very dark at some times. Completely different to being a comedy dad and he was a very good actor in everything he has done including in Godzilla. It also had a good story to the film instead of Godzilla going towards the nearest city and destroying it, instead there was a logical good reason why the thought to be extinct lizard was destroying the city, it was trying to defeat another big monster.

I think why it became so popular in my view was because there was so much action in that one film it got most men/boys very excited to watch it, also there was two massive monster that were going to fight at the end of the film which got us even more excited. Because there were two giant monsters, the power between them would be a lot stronger than ordinary human, so they cause much more destruction and are able to pick up very tall buildings to use as big weapons. This is what would make me excited in a film, so I think that is why it made other people around or above my age group excited as well. Although there were many plot holes in the film near the end, not many people noticed it unless you really thought about this film enough. People didn't pay much attention to that because once it got a bit boring they would put something big like a massive explosion, or Godzilla firing blue flames at the other monster, almost distracting the audience. They had some funny bits in this film as well, because at the beginning they set the film in Japan, the first Godzilla was set in Japan, they didn't have to actually put it in Japan but they did to connect to the old film. But instead of destroying Tokyo, they decided for Godzilla to go to America and fight in the city of San Francisco, which is completely different to Tokyo and a lot smaller as well, so not as much destruction was created in this film you would think, but more destruction was created because the fight went across the whole of America and the final fight was in San Francisco.
