The destroyer Yukikaze that appears in the film was called the lucky ship because it survived many fierce battles during the Pacific War without any damage. After the war, it served as a repatriation ship, bringing many soldiers back to Japan. That story also strengthens my feelings about this film. I was surprised by your commentary and reading your analysis, and I think that Americans seem to understand the message of the film more deeply than Japanese people. Thank you to all our American friends.

Original title is Gojira -1.0 which means that after Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan was literally burned to the ground (zero -> 0). And after that all japanese thought they have already lost everything. But then came Gojira and made it even worse (from zero to below, -1). Very great reaction, just stay always honest to Your viewers. Keep up the great work.

The movie is titled "Minus One" because after WWII, Japan was devastated and at its lowest. Knocked all the way down to zero, with them trying to rebuild... Then Godzilla shows up and makes things even worse, taking Japan from zero to minus one. Your reaction is probably my favorite so far because you really caught on quickly to the meanings and emotional weight for the characters and what Shikishima's story arc had to be. Fun fact, it is revealed in other related media material that Tachibana, the mechanic, really wanted to help save lives, but he was stuck fixing up planes, just for the planes and pilots to fly out and sacrifice themselves as kamikazes. Tachibana put in the ejection seat because he too was tired of people dying when they could have lived instead. The only time I came close to tearing up in another Godzilla movie was when I was watching the original 1954 movie. When you see people dying of radiation poisoning and the mother telling her child that they were about to reunite with their father (who died during the war) soon, just before being crushed underfoot by Godzilla. Those are the moments when Dr. Serizawa realizes that for the sake of everyone else... he has to use the weapon he developed on accident and sacrifice himself so one one else could replicate the weapon to use on anyone or anything else ever again.

This series has way more options for favourite episode where I can't disagree with your choice. That being said, Zima Blue was my favourite episode until The Drowned Giant came out ❤

It's almost too bad people aren't seeing this the first time in the black and white version; it is better. Grittier and scarier.

This movie had 35 VFX artists and a 9 million dollar budget and still had better effects great music great acting and great sets Compared to the new flash movie had a $200000000 budget and over 1000 vfx artists and it looked like it was made in a week

I guess better late to the party than never.

Okay so why is it called minus one? I've seen this question come up many times so allow me to explain. When Japan was destroyed, it was reduced to ground zero and/or they had nothing. Now you include Godzilla into the mix who destroys Japan even more furthering what little Japan had and what's lower than 0? -1. Thus Godzilla -1.0.

I love the oingo boingo endings! I find them, and the brothers, charming. Include hol horse in there, too.

大好きな人が大好きな映画を見てくれて嬉しいです❤

Gamma means toad 🐸 so they all will start with that better to just remember buta or the second part of the names when meeting toads also Naruto nicknames everyone so difficult names will have a easier nickname to remember

Funny you mention the movie reminding you of Steven Spielberg, because apparently, Spielberg told the director of this movie that he went to see it 5 times in IMAX!

I saw the film three times at the cinema. The first two times was the colour version, the third the minus colour. And I have to say it was exceptional all three times. The four times Godzilla appeared were epic. The "Minus One" is that Japan after the second world war was reduced to zero due to the two bombs, and the carpet bombing. With the appearance of Godzilla, they were reduced to minus one. Meaning, they were lower than zero.

In my opinion Godzilla Minus One and Shin Godzilla are both much better than the Monsterverse Godzilla films, particularly the 2014 first attempt. It is not always about throwing money and special effects at a wall hoping it will stick. Actual story telling, timing of events and scenes, and emotional elements make movies work. Godzilla's eyes in this movie have intelligence, unlike the Shin Godzilla version. The Godzilla in this movie is smarter and shows hatred of humanity which is reflected in the way they portrayed his eyes.

He's a little ball of anger and hate.

the blue glow is Exactly what you see in a nuclear reactor. Amazing movie

Look closely at Noriko's neck in the last section. You will understand why she was alive.

日本が戦争に負けて、何も無い状況(zero)になった。そこにGODZILLAという怪物が襲い(minus)になったところから始まる物語です。 そして、あなたはまたこの映画を見る時に驚く事があるでしょう。 私もラストに泣いていたので初めに観た時に気づかなかった事を2回目の鑑賞で気付き半ば絶望しました。その後も−colourも観ました。65歳女性、初めてのGODZILLAです。主演の神木隆之介さんが子供の頃から応援しているファンなので観に行きましたが、とても良い映画だと思います。

日本が戦争に負けて、何も無い状況(zero)になった。そこにGODZILLAという怪物が襲い(minus)になったところから始まる物語です。

ゴジラを愛してくれてありがとうございます♪

９月の東京は、信じられないぐらい暑いです。気を付けて下さい。

One of the best films I've seen in theaters in the last half decade.

Minus One should be the full reboot of the monsterverse. The cinematic and direct-to-streaming schlock we've gotten over the past decade needs to be forgotten. I really, really hoping their planning a Godzilla Zero placed in the late 60's that is as well done as the recent blockbuster.

Epic reaction haha, also while minus one's atomic breath is highly destructive is not really that strong compared to the other godzilllas. Becayse the others works more as a lazer, por example a wedding torch on the same place while more powerfull than a small oyrotechnic will not produce the same level of area destruction but the torch will always be more powerfull.

I don't believe that 1998 Godzilla was a Komodo dragon. I'm pretty sure it's an iguana.

EVERY TIME I see Shikishima seeing the boat for the first time, I'm reminded of Luke Skywalker seeing the Millenium Falcon for the first time in Star Wars. insert dialog here: Shikishima, "What a piece of junk!" Noda (or the captain), "She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts. Plus, I've made a few special modifications myself, so if we'll all just get onboard, we can get out of here."

As others have said, it wasn’t just the visual that was amazing in the theater. The audio was as well. When Godzilla roared, the room shook.

I hear they just waited around for the baby to cry, like she's 2 years old sitting around with strange adults its bound to happen sooner or later, and the actors would just work around that.

I've watched dozens of G-One reaction vids and yours is one of the best. Great reaction and commentary!.

Godzilla Minus is a like before I even see the vid. All you need to do is not fuck it up sir. I trust you for that.

Caught this in Imax, and it was just an amazing experience. Did not know what to expect going in, and was struck how deeply layered this film is.

Happy to see you're also watching my favorites at the moment (1st X-men97 and now this one). Great reaction as usual!

This is EXACTLY how a Godzilla movie should be done! BRAVO Toho! Godzilla FOREVER! ❤❤❤

The fish look weird because their insides have come outside of their mouths because of the decompression they experience when Godzilla drives them to the surface. It's a great foreshadowing of their plan to kill Godzilla. Also, you can notice a black mark growing up Noriko's neck at the end in the hospital. According to the film-makers, she was infected by Godzilla cells, which is how she survived.

Godzilla is buoyant. That's literally all it is for floating when he wants to. The way he always has been

Thanks for the video Godzilla minus one refers to the state of Japan. After the atomic bombs and Tokyo bombings then ultimately surrender Japan was at Zero. Godzilla made it minus 1 for their state of being.

Unfortunately the Netflix subtitles do not match the actual theatrical/Blu-ray subtitles.

This movie was not only a master class in film making, but social media marketing. If they had spent anything on a marketing budget and run some TV ads, and distributed it to more theaters, I'm sure it would have made a couple hundred $million in the US alone. But even with word of mouth, this movie did amazingly well in theaters and became the most highly anticipated streaming movie ever.

I get teared up after watching everybody's reaction. i saw it 4 times at the theaters. It's a very emotional film.

* Amazing that Godzilla Minus One (2023) was made for under $12 million - just 1/13 of the budget of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024). The American Monsterverse Godzilla is like a juicy hamburger while the recent Japanese Toho Godzilla is like a gourmet steak - both are “delicious” depending on your mood. * The latest American “MonsterVerse” Godzilla movies were full of CGI “eye candies,” and did not require me to think very hard. In licensed “monster” movies such as Godzilla vs Kong (2021) and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024), I just “kicked back” and enjoyed the CGI spectacles. More importantly, these two big-budget (over 130 million USD each) “popcorn flicks” were hugely profitable globally. This contractually restricts when and where the Japanese Toho could release or stream its Godzilla movies. * The latest Japanese “Toho” Godzilla movies were allegories of Japan’s traumas, which required me to think deeply. In Shin Godzilla (2016), the bureaucratic Japanese government failed to address the 2011 (rapidly unfolding) triple disasters of earthquake -> then tsunami -> then nuclear plant meltdown using an “evolving” Godzilla as an allegory. In Godzilla Minus One (2023), the people-led effort defeated Godzilla (temporarily) as Japan rebuilt after World War II (post-1945) with a compelling human story of “survivor guilt.” These two low-budget (under 12 million USD each) “monster” movies won numerous awards including Best Picture in Japan (both) and Godzilla Minus One won an Oscar in the US for Best Visual Effects (the first-ever for a low-budget monster movie).

Your excitement and joy are honestly infectious.

Here's the thing about the show. The op is hella awesome I love it! But the show itself is kinda boring. It's like a power fantasy in an urban setting but less spectacular than it sounds.

Knuckles nen ability has to be one of my favorites in the whole show it rly proves the creativity and uniqueness of the nen power system, It's such a interesting power and paired with such a good character makes it rly fun to watch. In theory you can beat anybody with it using the right strategy no matter how strong they are.

The train trolley was built in the 1920's and had many stops along it's route. not only did it have robust brakes it only went 10 to 17 mph .so it was capable of many short stops. Sadly it would take a bit too long to get up to it's full speed of 23-25 mph in reverse. to hopefully get out of Godzillas way and interest.

JAWS you say? Steven Spielberg has seen this movie three times in IMAX because he loves it so much. And the framing that you noticed was a tip of the hat to Jaws.

25:30 "G" is admiring his handywork. Like 'Man On Fire' the Christopher Walken Speech: "His art is death and he's about to create his masterpiece".

Great review, mate. I'm also a huge Godzilla fan, and this film has definitely taken the top spot. Not just my favourite Godzilla movie, but my absolute favourite movie, full stop. Really enjoyed this reaction. Cheers from Canada!

Heads up if you want to rewatch this films, set it to English subs and not English [CC], the latter changes dialogue for some reason in several key scenes

Akiko at the end of the movie- "You told me she was at work. You lying bastard!"

Well, I enjoyed this film, I just wondered the height of Godzilla, 150 feet the first scenes it was like a good estimate. BUT later when he destroys Tokio the beast looks like another one, TALLER, with a smaller head !!! !!! Is this part of the fun or what, from earlier japanese productions, when the beast floats in the water just the huge head it looks very plastic, ha ha I mean I dont really mind, the movie has a beautiful message and well written, you dont get many of these flics Godzilla is a legend...
