“There were a lot of things that I felt were very new for Godzilla, and I felt jealous the whole time I was watching the movie,” Edwards told Japanese publicationCinema Today(viaComicbook.com). “This is what a Godzilla movie should be. [Godzilla Minus One] must be mentioned as a candidate for the best Godzilla movie of all time.”

Godzilla Minus One is a new kaiju movie made by Japan’s Toho Studios and set in post-war Japan. Per the movie’s official synopsis, “Japan’s economic state has been reduced to zero. Godzilla appears and plunges the country into a negative state.” Directed by Takashi Yamazaki, the film follows a former kamikaze pilot plagued by survivor’s guilt who ends up fighting against Godzilla with the crew of his mine removal ship.
