Synopsis

Godzilla (1954), 1hr 36m
After a dinosaur-like beast - awoken from undersea hibernation by atom bomb testing - ravages Tokyo, a scientist must decide if his similarly dangerous weapon should be used to destroy it.
Godzilla Minus One (2023)
Godzilla Minus One (2023), 2hr 5m
Post-war Japan is at its lowest point when a new crisis emerges in the form of a giant monster, baptized in the horrific power of the atomic bomb.
