Godzilla 2014 Test Footage Reactions From Across The Web!

Posted on February 28, 2014 at 6:22 pm by Paladin under Godzilla

During a special screening today in London, director Gareth Edwards presented roughly 20 minutes of footage from the upcoming “Godzilla” film. The few critics lucky enough to see this footage have given near-universal appraisal, suggesting a very promising return for the King of the Monsters!

While we will try to avoid major spoilers, the footage contains five very interesting scenes:

*The first clip involves Bryan Cranston’s character in a nuclear power plant, then the second cuts to 15 years later with Cranston trying to deal with the fallout of that incident. Both scenes highlight Cranstons’ impressive talents as a dramatic performer.

*Scene number 3 is the official reveal of Godzilla, said to be the largest incarnation of the character to date (over 350 feet tall according to Edwards). The report from BleedingCool sums up Godzilla nicely: “What I will say is that he honestly looks magnificent. They nailed this.”

*The final two scenes involve military personnel reacting to Godzilla’s arrival, with special emphasis on the HALO Jump sequence featured in both major trailers.

Finally, the major critics that had a chance to view this test footage have all been “sworn to secrecy” regarding at least one plot point in this film. Could that mean another monster appearance? A secret twist on the origins of Godzilla? We’ll have to wait until May 16 to find out!

Check out the full breakdown of test footage via the critical perspectives at:

    During a critical screening in London, Gareth Edwards showed off approximately 20 minutes of complete footage for the upcoming Godzilla film.

    The reactions show almost universal appraisal!

    Just wow. The descriptions alone make it sound incredible. And they're barely teasing us. Very interested to see what the big moment is that everyone's sworn to secrecy over.

    The trailer they showed at SDCC featured another monster. So it's safe to say that is the footage that people have to be hush-hush about.
