"Shocktober 2024:
**Gamera is really neat, Gamera is turtle meat**
As big of a Godzilla fan as I am I have never really dove into much other Kaiju fair. But this reboot trilogy from the 90s comes very highly regarded by Kaiju fans and I was not disappointed.
A lot of kaiju stuff excels on allegory or strong commentary. And this movie has that, but it's real strength is in its pure kaiju action. These are some of my favorite looking kaiju battles in anything I've seen. It's absolutely top notch. Plus, Gamera himself is one of the most sympathetic kaiju characters I've ever seen in this. If you love Kaiju do yourself a favor and check this series out imo."
