I haven't seen every Godzilla movie ever made (like Shin Godzilla, or the old black and whites, or cartoons), but I've seen all the newer American one's since the 90's, and of all of those I can say that this one is the best Godzilla story I've seen so far. While most other godzilla movies are just about the action and destruction and don't have a super compelling storyline outside of that (they do have stories but the stories aren't deep enough to get us emotionally involved), this one is different in that.
This godzilla movie has a really compelling storyline that gets us deeply emotionally invested in it throughout. It is the story of a few people (man woman and child) who are brought together by the hardships of war, and they form their own make-shift family unit. For the first time in any godzilla movie I found myself actually caring about the characters, their relationships and the things that happened to them. I found myself really empathizing with them, to the point of getting choked up and teary eyed when something tragic would happen to one of the characters, which hasn't happened to me in a godzilla movie.
This movie does everything right, it's got it all. I really enjoyed this movie actually having a compelling storyline and stimulating our emotions in addition to having all the action. This was a whole new level of entertainment I've never gotten from a godzilla movie. And so for me, it's a perfect 10, one I can't wait to watch again.
