A very old alpha predator (Godzilla) was lured to an Island in 1954 with the aim of detonating a nuclear bomb to kill it. However, it was discovered 45 years later that a giant spore hatched, meaning there was an offspring. Sandra and a team are sent by her husband Joe to go and check the reactor.
However, Sandra and her team never came back from checking the reactor as a tremor breach kills then. Joe later attempted to get data 15 years later, but he was caught and kept in a facility alongside his son, Ford. A giant winged insect fatally injures him in the facility but the son survives. The insect nicknamed MUTO was later communicating with a female version that was wingless. Godzilla finally fights the 2 insects and was victorious. Ford also survives the whole incident.

Predicting How Successful the Acceptance Will Be
The year 2019 has been a major year for movies, considering that some of the most anticipated films have already been released earlier in the year, with some of them setting records in the cinema. We might not be expecting Godzilla to quickly break few of those records, considering some of those movies are series that have garnered wide followership over time. However, Godzilla is a movie that has been acted and reacted over the years, with the first of the movies being released in the 1950s.
For the current set of movies, the first part was released in 1998. Godzilla already has a significant number of fans all over the world. It is expected that these fans and new intending Godzilla fans will troop out massively to watch the movie. Thus, we are counting on every Godzilla fan to make the premier and the overall cinema appearance of the movie to be among the most successful for 2019.
