If you loved Shin Godzilla, try Shin Ultraman
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Shin Ultraman has roughly 6.5× fewer votes than Shin Godzilla — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Shinji Higuchi, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag, and they sit in Action / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Shin Godzilla, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Shin Ultraman is
You join Japan's giant-monster task force as disaster strikes. But a silver giant appears, fighting on humanity's side. Soon you wonder whose side he's really on. Director Higuchi finds new anxieties in a familiar story. The film lingers on what we owe protectors after the dust settles.
