There was something similar with the 1997 release of the super hyped US Godzilla film. They wouldn't show it for review until a few days before release. I hope this isn't that all over again.

Not sure why you picked that particular movie. This is something that's very common in the film industry, not a Sony exclusive. If a distribution company/ producer isn't confident in a movie critically - they won't allow screeners for it (or they'll do a very limited run) so the critics have to see it day 1 at midnight and not early - thus not able to harm a  film as much with a bad review.
