Show creators just do not understand why peple watching Kaiju movies.
Here you will not see any giant creatures for the most of the time. Only few seconds on the end of the episodes and the same footage from one of the earlier Gozilla movies will be repeated again and again.
I would not have problem with it cause most of the good shows does not include Kaijus either. But they usually have good scenarios and good acting. Not gonna happen here.
Every actor here just dont bother acting. Every scene and background just screams "Cheep" at you.
One episode just completelly takes place in a tiny rooms like holding cells, trailers and garages. And no creatures whatsoever. In a basically Godzilla show. But included "The Agenda".
What a shame.
And alk this is happening while japanese Godzilla Minus One supposed to be in the theaters.

Thanks to many scandals involving Ezra Miller this movie obviously lacked post-production attention it needed.
I suspect - this is why CGI is so low quality in half of the scenes, and especially in introduction act.
But some attention to details, on point jokes and many references to DC and other cultural refs are just awesome.
I was so surprised to see the best reference to famous Kevin Smith story - probably the best multi-verse thing around.
And Batman is just hilarious. With all the original designs and music. It is just a treat for fans.
I am very disappointed that this movie got so many negative attention because of scandals and will be discontinued, But it shows that Andi Muschetti is great director and his movies are on top tier list. I am really sorry that he had to go through production hell because of many scandals. This movie could have been so much more,
But is still very much enjoyable one.

Unlike "Only the Brave" - which is one of the most honest and tragic movie about firefighters - this one is not based on a real story. So this is much more intense and entertaining. Very good looking picture and great acting of Kostantin Khabensky.
But it looks like producers watched "Only the Brave" and decided to do same stuff but more. More fire, more drama, add a dozen of kids, a pregnant woman and some over the edge heroic sequences that does match with physics. Not a total rip-off of the Braves, but you can clearly see where did they get their fuel.
But where slow paced "Only the Brave" made real drama build up and make you cry in the end - this one just all over the place. Where first movie shows in details the actual work of hotshots and what is their actual line of work - this movie kinda more about dealing with people then with fire. May be this is more truthful to Russia. In any case this does not hit you with a drama as much as "Only the Brave" and gives you more entertaining experience more like summer blockbuster movies.
I see no point comparing it to "Backdraft" as some other reviewers - cause unless you've been living under a rock for last 30 years you've got more flicks to compare too. Backdraft is classics, but let it go already.
Anyway, I totally recommend to watch this movie. Great flick! But the best way to understand it is after "Only the Brave". Cause they definitely payed some ommage to it.
