I SUPER recommend you watch the original 1954 godzilla movie next (not the American 1956 one). its amazing, and the only godzilla movie that hits like this one. this one is basically a changed up remake for a modern audience, it even used a lot of the same sound effects and music

This was my first Godzilla movie too, and the fact that it isn't just a smashy smashy monster movie blew me away. The character work is impeccable and the acting is amazing! For some background info: Godzilla was made to be a manifestation of the fear of nuclear war that came after World War II. I think his origin story varies, but is often a lizard-like creature that's mutated through radiation. The exploration of the trauma and suffering of Japan after the war is really well done and something I hadn't really thought of before, and yet also has fundamental and universal themes of guilt, fear, and regret, but also love and hope. The moment when Tachibana told him to "live" always makes me teary, it's so powerful. Re the Godzilla design, I think it was made to mimic how Godzilla used to be made by a guy in a monster suit destroying miniatures. Also! This movie was made in Japan on a budget of 10-15 million dollars which is insane! Most blockbusters today can range from 100-300 million. The director is a visual effects artist and helped with the shots as well as directing. It also won Best VFX at the oscars :)

This is essentially a remake of the original 1954 Godzilla movie, so it doesn't really mesh lore-wise into the rest of the Godzilla movies except for vibes and some broad themes.
