Shin Godzilla (シン・ゴジラ Shin Gojira, lit. Shin Godzilla) is a 2016 Japanese tokusatsu kaiju film co-produced by Toho and Cine Bazar, and the twenty-ninth installment in the Godzilla series. It was released to Japanese theaters on July 29, 2016, and to American theaters on October 11, 2016.

The first Toho-produced Godzilla film after a period of 12 years, Shin Godzilla is a complete reboot to the franchise in which Godzilla attacks Japan for the first time in the modern day. After a disaster in the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line, Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Rando Yaguchi proposes that the culprit is a giant creature, only for his suggestion to be laughed off. However, Yaguchi is proven right when a huge gilled creature swims up the Tama River and comes ashore in Ota Ward of Tokyo. The JSDF is unable to mobilize in time and the creature escapes after leaving a trail of destruction. Now, Yaguchi and a ragtag team of bureaucratic rebels band together to find a method of defeating the creature, dubbed Godzilla, as he continues to evolve and returns to menace Tokyo again.

This is a transcript of the English credits on Funimation's poster for Shin Godzilla, along with the film's German dubbing credits.

Subject: Easily the best Godzilla movie

And its the best because NO NONJAPAN PRODUCTION even qualifies!! Excellent acting, interesting plot, excellent CGI and a really innovative and scary monster, bravo! And the political overtones and portrayal of Japanese hierarchical gridlock as a harsh harsh commentary on Tsunami /Fukushima disaster mismanagement are icing on the cake. For the budget of the latest Hollyturd reboot we could have had 10 Gojira movies of this quality!

Subject: Public domain but you can't use it.???

Why is the movie in public domain category??
You cannot upload it anywhere because copyright I think you should remove it from the public domain category or make it public domain work. Please do something. I hope you can hear this.

Subject: And that final shot of Godzilla's tail, the tip encrusted with human remains

:
I RAN THAT BIT ON FRAME BY FRAME.
MANY TIMES.
THE FREEZE, I UNDERSTOOD, WAS PERMANENT,
AND JUST IN TIME TO PREVENT A HOARD OF
RAVENING MONSTERS.
IT SEEMED Godzilla WAS BUDDING MUTATED VARIETY OF CLONES.

Subject: Shin Godzilla: An Excellent Film

As a long time fan of the Godzilla films including the recent Netflix-produced animated trilogy and many of the others save for the 1998 film effort starring Matthew Broderick, Jean Reno, et al, I was very pleased with almost all aspects of Shin Godzilla from the special effects to the acting, music, you name it, all top-notch. Especially interesting is the clear criticism of Nipponese bureaucracy. Must admit to having fallen in love with the woman playing the low-level but intelligent, capable and brave Nipponese government biologist, Mikako Ichikawa and Satomi Ishihara, who played the politically-aspiring US Senator's daughter whose grandmother survived the US nuclear attacks at the close of WW 2 (ladies, please post a reply here if by some chance my feeble words of praise evoke positive affect lol). Shin Godzilla also demonstrates how pushy the USA can be at times on several levels, but thanks to the Kayoko Patterson character, the capable, shrewd, charming and deeply-appreciative of her Nippon heritage US envoy to Japan, also capable of true goodness. France, too. The only thing I didn't 100% enjoy about this film is that (spoilers follow:) Gojira is a negative force of nuclear-waste fission-powered destruction much as he was in the original 1954 Gojira. I get it, but I personally prefer Godzilla battling the "bad" monsters sometimes with Mothra's help, with the tiny twin islanders who helped sing Mothra out of hibernation lol. Two things about the end: Godzilla is frozen solid but zero mention is made about Nippon's next step in dealing with Gojira, who is perhaps a bit over-powered in this film, before it warms up, automatically triggering a US nuclear strike on Tokyo. And that final shot of Godzilla's tail, the tip encrusted with human remains though poignant and creepy also seemed ambiguous and was perhaps either a foreshadowing of what's to come or a reminder that we shouldn't allow the careless dumping of radioactive waste in case of, you know, suffering, death and destruction. All things considered, a wonderful Godzilla film although it's really more of a very effective political critique of more than one nation and people-are-at-their-best-and-most-good-when-working-together kind of film with surprisingly little screen-time for Godzilla although I suspect the sequel will take care of that problem. The title Shin Godzilla does not mean "Godzilla's Resurgence", byw. And it's worth screening both the subtitled and dubbed versions to note the interesting differences in translation from Nipponese to English.

Subject: A New Godzilla.

I am a great fan of the original Godzilla way back from the black and white and every on following thereafter, but this Godzilla is by far A Great Creation in itself, I hope this only continues.
