Godzilla (1998)

A huge radiation-created monster is on a terrifying trek to the densely populated island of Manhattan, leaving a trail of ruin and panic in its awful wake. Creating a ripple effect of jaw-dropping destruction, the monster annihilates everything in its path. Despite their often conflicting agendas and motives, a scientist (Matthew Broderick), a TV reporter (Maria Pitillo), a cameraman (Hank Azaria) and an enigmatic French insurance investigator (Jean Reno), as well as the U.S. military, must join forces to unravel the mystery behind this creature and prevent it from reducing the great metropolis to a pile of rubble before its too late. With Academy Award®-winning visual effects supervisor Volker Engel (Independence Day) pushing the limits of the latest technology, Godzilla is the ultimate monster movie.
