Story of Godzila

Godzilla movies back up the story of a popular Japanese giant monsters in Hollywood scale. 

Japanese giant monster, Godzilla, has become an icon of world cinema since it first appeared in 1954 in Japan, this monster starred in 28 films till 2004 Hollywood also been "borrowed" this amphibious monster for Godzilla movie in 1998, although welcomed criticism because of the form of the King of Monsters is "not Godzilla". This 2014, Hollywood tried to "redeem" the Godzilla reboot movie. 

When Godzilla 1998 Roland Emmerich film maker who worked on more of a free interpretation, then reboot Godzilla 2014 British film director, Gareth Edwards trying to get back to the story of the original Godzilla, but on a global scale. Together screenwriter Max Borenstein, Edwards displays moments when Godzilla was first present in the midst of the hustle and bustle of human civilization. 

In the first film who worked Ishirou Honda, Godzilla was described as an ancient creature that is built in modern times due to absorb nuclear power. Nature that makes it impossible conquered, except by using a new type of weapon that is more powerful than a nuclear bomb, which also has the risk of wiping out humans. 

On the one hand, the film is considered to represent the concerns of the nation of Japan from the devastation caused by the impact of nuclear weapons. Made catastrophic effects similar to the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the atomic bomb was sentenced by the United States at the end of World War II, as well as the existence of a new weapon that affects more dashsyat, as a reminder that this tragedy from happening again. 

However, on the other hand the film became popular thanks to its entertainment value, even generate 27 sequels, as well as inspired similar films with different types of monsters-are often called kaiju movie, which also inspired the film Pacific Rim last year. Gradually, Godzilla was not seen as evil monsters, but so protagonist that protects the earth from the other creatures. 

Elements-elements relevant to the older version of Godzilla was then taken in Godzilla 2014. Told that since a long time, especially during the Cold War, the ruler of the world to use nuclear weapons to eradicate a mysterious giant creature that often appears in the Pacific Ocean. Useless, because the creatures are actually absorbing nuclear energy as a source of life. 

In 1999, nuclear power plants in Janjira, Japan, experienced an explosion and radiation leakage. Although regarded as a result of the earthquake, a nuclear expert, Joe Brody (Bryan Cranston) believes that this incident caused by something else. 

15 years later, Joe is still trying to unravel what happened, involving also the only son joined the military, Ford (Aaron Taylor-Johnson). Joe and Ford was finally seen that past tragedy was an act of deadly ancient monster. And unfortunately, these monsters are not only one. 

Apart from the story elements, the design of Godzilla also appears to refer back to the design version of Toho Company, the company that produces films Japanese Godzilla films. Parties Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. indeed long ago already said it will return to the initial design of Godzilla, Godzilla 1998 is not like taking a shape similar to an iguana - inviting criticism from fans of Godzilla. 

"We showed them (Toho Company) final designs and we continue to improve it, but those that determine the final look. Important to me that it feels like its Godzilla Toho ... I would be delighted if our film is considered as part of the Toho group, "said Edwards. 

Edwards stated that the design of this new version of Godzilla takes the movements of animals such as bears and dragons, even her face is a mix of a dog, a bear, and eagle. Any size would be really great with a height of 110 meters, the largest of the embodiment of Godzilla ever. 

Although it took many elements from the old version of Godzilla, to the affairs of the visual effects, Godzilla 2014 obviously looking for the most sophisticated. If Godzilla Japanese version still uses the traditional special effects, which puts people in monster costumes in the middle of the miniature, then Godzilla 2014 invited the Oscar-winning visual effects supervisor, Jim Rygiel (The Lord of the Rings) to update the monster. 

For the Godzilla alone, Rygiel deployed hundreds of CGI animators to mmbuat convincing form on the screen. However, as a tribute to the original Godzilla making techniques, Rygiel also uses motion-capture techniques (human motion capture computer), which is then refined with CGI animation. 

Godzilla movie, which also starred Ken Watanabe, Elizabeth Olsen, Sally Hawkins, and Juliette Binoche, already can be seen in cinemas now. Available in 2D, 3D, and IMAX 3D
