Plot :In 1954, a United
States Castle Bravo hydrogen bomb is used to destroy a giant creature surfacing
from the ocean, covering it up as a nuclear bomb test. In 1999, Project Monarch
scientists Ishiro Serizawa and Vivienne Graham goes to the Philippines to investigate
a colossal skeleton in a collapsed mine. Two egg-shaped spores are discovered,
one broken open and leaving a trail to the sea. In Japan, the Janjira Nuclear
Power Plant experiences unusual seismic activity. Joe Brody, the plant's
supervisor, sends his wife, Sandra, and a team of technicians into the reactor
to check the sensors. When the team is inside, the reactor is breached,
releasing radioactive steam. Sandra and her team are unable to escape and the
plant collapses into ruin.
Fifteen years later, Joe's son Ford is a US Navy explosive
ordnance disposal officer, living in San Francisco with his wife and son. When
Joe is arrested for trespassing in the Janjira quarantine zone, Ford returns to
Japan. Convinced of a cover-up of the true cause of the disaster, Joe convinces
Ford to accompany him to their old home inside the zone to retrieve vital
seismic data he recorded. They find the zone is not
contaminated, contradicting
the official report. After recovering the data, soldiers appear,arrest and take
them to a Monarch facility within the plant's ruins. Joe and Ford sees the
creature locked up by personnel secretly in public. Soon, the colossal winged
creature emerges from a massive chrysalis and flees. Joe is injured in the
mayhem and later dies. The next day, media around the world covers it up as a
result of an earthquake.



A US Navy task force led by Admiral William Stentz on the
aircraft carrier USS Saratoga starts a search for the creature, dubbed MUTO
(Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organism) and Serizawa, Graham and Ford go
on-board to assist. To Ford, the scientists divulge the 1954 appearance of
Godzilla, an ancient alpha predator, how it was awoken by a deep sea expedition
and how early nuclear tests were really attempts to kill it. They explain that
Project Monarch was formed to study Godzilla in secret and describe the
findings in the Philippines and the MUTO that caused the Janjira plant's
destruction. Ford reveals that Joe had monitored echolocation signals that
indicated the MUTO was communicating with something.

A US Army Special Forces team finds the MUTO feeding off the
wreckage of a Russian nuclear submarine it deposited in a forest near Honolulu.
Ford waits at Honolulu airport for a flight back to San Francisco, when a
battle breaks out between the military and the MUTO. Godzilla arrives, causing
a tsunami that devastates Waikiki. After briefly fighting Godzilla, the MUTO
flies away. Meanwhile, at the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository, the
second pod found has hatched into a larger, wingless female MUTO which destroys
Las Vegas. The scientists conclude that the two MUTOs were communicating and
will meet to breed.
The task force follows Godzilla, projecting that the
monsters will meet in San Francisco Bay and Stenz approves a plan to use a
nuclear explosion to kill all three monsters, over the scientists' objections.
Ford returns with the military to California and joins a team delivering
warheads to San Francisco by train. After the female MUTO destroys the train,
the one remaining warhead is airlifted to San Francisco and is armed. It's
taken by the male MUTO and the female MUTO constructs a nest around it in the
downtown area.

The military fails to stop
Godzilla when it arrives at the Golden Gate Bridge, and later pulls back to
allow the monsters to fight. During the ensuing battle between the monsters,
Ford and a team of soldiers enter the city by HALO jump on a mission to disarm
the warhead. When they fail, they take the warhead onto a boat for disposal at
sea. Ford incinerates the nest, causing the female to leave the battle in a
rage. Godzilla then uses its tail to smash the male MUTO into a building,
killing him. The female MUTO wipes out the team on the boat, but before she can
kill Ford, Godzilla kills her using its atomic breath. With the fight over,
Godzilla collapses from exhaustion. Ford pilots the boat out to sea, and is
rescued by a helicopter before the warhead detonates.
Godzilla 3D
In August 2004, Yoshimitsu Banno, who had directed 1971's
Godzilla vs. Hedorah, announced that he had secured the rights from Toho to
make a Godzilla IMAX 3D short film at his Advanced Audiovisual Productions
(AAP) production company. The film was tentatively titled Godzilla 3D to the
Max, and was to be a remake of the Godzilla vs. Hedorah story.[31] In 2005,
American cinematographer Peter Anderson was added to the project as
cinematographer, visual effects supervisor and co-producer.[31] In 2007,
American producer Brian Rogers signed on to the project after Anderson
introduced him to Banno and AAP producer Kenji Okuhira. In 2007, also through
Anderson, Kerner Optical then came on board to develop the technology and to
produce the 3-D film.[31] And with Kerner's backing, in the fall of 2007 the
team met with Toho in Tokyo where they re-negotiated their license to allow the
release of a feature-length 3-D theatrical production.

In 2008, Kerner was facing financial troubles that
threatened to cancel the production. Rogers, Anderson and the then-proposed
director Keith Melton met with Legendary Pictures to get their backing on a 3-D
theatrical film. In 2009, it was green-lit by Legendary to go to
production.[32] From the AAP production team, Banno and Okuhira would remain on
the project as executive producers and Rogers as a producer. In November 2013,
Banno stated that he still planned to make a sequel to Godzilla vs. Hedorah.
