The effects were solid but the movie as a whole just didn't work...Seems as though the entire budget was spent on special effects and sets...The lead actor was horrible and the dynamics within the family just didn't work...poor B story!
I wanted to like it more than I did ever since I saw the first trailer about 5 months ago. It was a bit of a let-down but I can't figure out why. The FX were great and I really appreciated how Gareth Edwards actually allowed us to watch the fight scenes and take in the monsters (not like Transformers, where everything happens so fast you can barely follow it!). Waaaaaayyyy better than the 1998 piece of junk (I can't stand Roland Emerich's storytelling). Also liked how it wasn't packed with a bunch of quick-witted comments from the characters. It's a good summer movie, enjoy!
You know it's bad when you start looking at your watch after an hour. Not much Godzilla but these other two mutant/radiation eating monsters fighting Godzilla. Special effects are good but other than than it's pure Nonsense. I would rather watch this on TV but this is not iMax 3D material.
Awful! Waste of time! Falling asleep during it.
Godzilla is back. Great Movie!
The King of the Monsters is back, along with visually stunning destruction and solid characters.
Awesome monster movie. Godzilla is a total kickass
This movie was awesome. If you like Godzilla movies, you will love this one. Go see it on the big screen.
The beginning of the movie was very well started but story fell apart shortly after the first 20 minutes. Godzilla did look more realistic but the movie did not revolve around him. The movie was mostly about the two evil "parasites." Not enough Godzilla and cheesy story and bad guys.
entertaining, they kept a lot of the feel of the original ones to the story and settings.
