The original 1950s black-and-white Godzilla film is a serious, gritty and suspenceful piece of drama. The H-bomb and apocalyptic themes are superbly captured and the radioactive revived creature comes across as a genuine and sinister threat rather than the figure of fun it later became.
The non-dubbed, subtitled version of this classic is the best. Not only a great film but also a piece of cinema history. Forget the recent American money-minded advert for merchandise and watch this instead.
