Godzilla is going to the US again!! Have you ever watched the movie, Godzilla, a huge monster which looks like T-rex running through a US city? If yes, I guess it would be a Hollywood film made in 1998. Some Japanese who love the original Godzilla produced by a Japanese filmmaker have condemned it for beeing a dinosaur movie, not a real Godzilla movie. This summer, a new Japanese-style Godzilla film, Shin-Godzilla, came to movie theaters in Japan, and it has been very successful. I cannot tell you the details of the story here because it premieres in the US next week. But I can say that it is not just a monster movie, but it descript well how the Japanese government responds a serious situation. It shows that people stop thinking about the matter in a proper way when they face such an unexpected, tragic and dangerous event. It is funny but also sad for Japanese people to see our prime minister hesitates in decision-making. In the end, the US or other big countries cut into the decision-making system in Japan and insist that an atomic bomb must be used to kill Godzilla. Japanese moviegoers may think that the nuclear bomb could be dropped in Japan again!! So that is why I see Shin-Godzilla movies as a kind of Japanese political stories. If you have a chance to watch the Shin-Godzilla, please tell me your opinions.
