Summer movie season is kicking off with a roar! I know, that sounds terribly cliche, but this time it's literal! Not to mention it comes from a 20 story lizard who has become an icon of all things cinematic, hell...he IS the original movie monster, King Kong had too many redeeming qualities to win that prize. I don't see it until next week, so I can't tell you how good it is...but something tells me this is going to be miles ahead of our last visit from Godzilla back in 1998 (though that movie did have one shining light in the song "Come With Me", make fun of me all you want but you know that song was off the chains). Here's the official synopsis:
In Summer 2014, the world’s most revered monster is reborn as Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures unleash the epic action adventure “Godzilla.” From visionary new director Gareth Edwards (“Monsters”) comes a powerful story of human courage and reconciliation in the face of titanic forces of nature, when the awe-inspiring Godzilla rises to restore balance as humanity stands defenseless.The screening is this Monday, May 12th 7PM at the Regal Majestic in Silver Spring. We have 20 pairs of tickets and winners will be chosen at random. You just need to do two things 1) If you're already a fan of the PDC Facebook page then invite 10 friends to become fans 2) Tell us who was Godzilla's greatest monster adversary.
Send all entries to punchdrunkcritics@gmail.com. Winners will be notified Sunday evening.
That's it! Good luck and thanks for reading!
