Ahead of Toho’s Godzilla Minus One coming back to U.S. theaters in black & white on January 26 – for one week only – the film just became an Oscar nominee this morning!
Godzilla Minus One has scored an Academy Awards nomination for Best Visual Effects, and it’ll be competing with The Creator, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, Society of the Snow, and Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3. Takashi Yamakazi, Kiyoko Shibuya, Masaki Takahashi, and Tatsuji Nojima are the listed nominees for Godzilla Minus One.
This makes Godzilla Minus One the FIRST EVER Godzilla movie to be nominated for an Oscar, yet another feather in the cap for one of the best Godzilla movies ever made.
On that note, the film is roaring its way to $100 million at the worldwide box office.
Toho’s Godzilla Minus One, written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, sees an already devastated post-World War II Japan facing a new threat in the form of Godzilla.
Matt Donato writes in his 4.5 star review for Bloody Disgusting, “Minus One is a blessing to Toho’s kaiju franchise and a towering accomplishment for the entire kaiju subgenre.”
The rave review continues, “After thirty-plus films and nearly seventy years, Toho confidently delivers one of their best Godzilla movies to date.”
The film stars Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe, Yuki Yamada, Munetaka Aoki, Hidetaka Yoshioka, Sakura Ando, and Kuranosuke Sasaki, with music by Naoki Sato.
Godzilla Minus One is rated PG-13 for “creature violence and action.”
