TOKUSATSU MUSIC HIGHLIGHT:
"M87" by Kenshi Yonezu.
Even the title is a deep cut.
Shin Ultraman goes back to the beginning, but with the best CGI possible to really bring home that alien hero feel, and a more grounded story as oppose to the high-concept scifi material of the original series. The only thing these two productions seem to have in common, besides the monsters, is that this Ultra is very much designed after the original and is tied to other legendary Ultras as well. Despite the differences, the movie is a heavy trip and a real treat, and this theme song is a perfect compliment to it.Be the one to understand, my crowd.

I just recently bought a DVD of this (which is now un-available in my country. shows you just how rare japanese stuff is here in Australia)
I've yet to see it. I saw on the front cover, 'if you love kaiju movies, you'll love this'. 
I've never seen Ultraman before. A part me really wants to take a look at it, but another part of me is a bit on the fence. As a goji fan / kaiju fan, is this something that I'd like? 
I really need a 2nd opinion on this :3

If you like Godzilla, superheroes, and/or scifi thrillers; then I say you DEFINITELY should! Of all the "Shin" movies directed by Hideaki Anno, this is easily one of the best.
I only wish you had it on Bluray or something so you could experience it in full HD goodness. And the best part is, you don't need to be familiar with any of the previous Ultraman TV shows, movies, or generations to enjoy this. It really is a good way tot dip your toes into Ultraman if you're a beginner.
