Idk, every scene with Godzilla himself had me pretty immersed, from the intro scene to the iconic picking up of the train as well as ending it all had their good moments. Even in terms of storyline that didn’t feature the Kaiju, by Godzilla movie standards, it was pretty good. The protagonist was just a broken shell by the end of it, tormented by his dishonor in the war as well as his helplessness against the Kajiu and living with it for years.

Also, seeing the prototype Japanese plane was really cool, I’m going to do some research on it and see what I can dig up if it was a real thing.

The one thing about these movies is not that it’s just a Godzilla flick, it’s a reflection on human nature - it’s easy to say “where godzilla” because I do it all the time but when presented with a decently crafted setting and story it really all comes together with the tension of a looming threat of destruction that you really can’t do anything to prevent it.
