Godzilla
City On The Edge Of Battle 9/10
This
will be full of random spoilers. This movie Godzilla: City On The
Edge Of Battle takes place right after the last movie Godzilla:Planet Of The Monsters. In the last movie they killed Godzilla and
were all happy until the realized that it was not THE Godzilla. Just
a spawn of the original one and by killing it they woke up the OG
monster and he is far larger than the one they just damn near died
from. The current captain Haruo Sakaki wakes up in a hut and is
startled by this girl who runs from him. He tracks her down and there
are more people like her. This tribe has captured and helped other
survivors and they need to figure out how to battle Godzilla. Also up
in the orbit the crew up there has the people still on Earth on a
timeline and are planning to leave if they don't hear back. They
eventually do and only three crew members return because they are
chickenshits and don't wanna keep fighting.
Haruo
and the team meet the rest of the tribe and they have this special
metal to fight monsters and also worship this egg which I am hoping
turns out to be Mothra. Some of the alien crew members realize the
metal comes from nanotechnology that came from the incomplete Mecha
Godzilla that was started thousands of years ago to fight Godzilla.
They end up finding a base that this metal has constructed an also
made its own cloud covering to keep itself hidden from Godzilla.
Everything seems to be going well. They now have weapons. Beef up
their mechs and build a couple more. They got a plan that can't fail.
Its great Until they realize that the aliens they are working with
are on some next level Spock shit and are logic extremist and think
letting the machines take over their bodies is the best sacrifice to
save the planet. Fuck life. A perfect weapon planet is better!
Before
I forget I need to tell folks to stay after the credits because there
is a scene that explains something earlier in the movie. I watched
the dubbed version of this which I know is different than the
original in terms of dialogue because in the translated versions they
always need to fill in space with talking instead of letting scenes
breathe. I didn't mind too much. The art and animation is good.
Godzilla continues to be a dick that is way too terrifying to be cute
or something I see and go “Awesome!” I thought he was a problem
in the first movie. No. He is a fucking problem in this movie. I can
not wait to see the next one and see how they could possibly deal
with this thing.
