…a more radically freaky Japanese entrapment oddity, Hitoshi Matsumoto’s 2009 Symbol…
Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)
Directed by Michael Dougherty
influenced by Big Man Japan (2007)
Themes
At this point, I prefer off-the-beaten-path big-monster stuff like Big Man Japan or The Host or even Colossal.
When the slightly similar Big Man Japan skewered kaiju movies with a "realistic" look at the characters, it gave us an antisocial hero who hates growing large, as well as his senile ancestor who still has monster powers.
