this is different, the hype built by the director feels more gripping and scary than the one produced by Hollywood. plus it is set during World War II which at that time in the real world was just as gripping. and Godzilla looks more convincing that he is indeed a real "monster".
Hollywood's Godzilla only looks more cool than Japan's version, haha lol.!!
because its CGI is more high tech than Japan's.
