Free Progressive Omaha film screening Godzilla Minus One
PG-13, Released Dec 1, 2023, 2h 5m
Just in time for Halloween, a film about a monster and the horrors of war, especially nuclear weapons.
A kamikaze pilot plagued by survivor's guilt seeks redemption when a giant monster he failed to K*ll is transformed by radiation from atomic bomb tests and lays siege to post-WWII Japan.
You actually care about the characters. It deals with some very serious topics, such as survivors guilt and the aftermath of war violence on civilians and conflicting emotions around national pride and feeling betrayed by your government. Yet the film is also exciting and optimistic and has some of the best Godzilla sequences ever put to screen. My favorite depiction of Godzilla is as a force of nature, representing the power of the atomic bomb or the fury of war itself.
