Only 3 Giant Monster Movies Are Better Than ‘Godzilla Minus One’

Collider · 5 hours ago

The article, a Collider feature, ranks giant monster (kaiju) films and argues that only three surpass "Godzilla Minus One," the acclaimed 2023 Japanese instalment praised as a high point of the genre. The piece frames its list within the wider giant-monster film tradition, tracing origins from 1925's "The Lost World" and 1933's "King Kong" through to the original 1954 "Godzilla," while noting the genre's continued popularity via upcoming releases such as "Godzilla Minus Zero" (2026) and "Godzilla x Kong: Supernova" (2027).

Among the films discussed as superior is 2001's "Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack," praised for reimagining Godzilla as a supernatural, war-haunted villain confronted by Mothra and King Ghidorah, alongside Baragon, while retaining strong human drama. The writer also weighs the two later "King Kong" remakes, from 1976 and 2005, though the provided text is cut off before naming the full top three or explaining their final rankings.

  • Collider ranks giant monster films above "Godzilla Minus One."
  • 2001's "Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah" cited as a standout.
  • Upcoming releases include "Godzilla Minus Zero" and "Godzilla x Kong: Supernova."
