Review of Godzilla

Godzilla (2014)
4/10
Mindless fight between two monsters
14 December 2021
This is my first Godzilla movie. I'm honestly a bit disappointed.

I'm not sure about the plot, it just seems to be weirdly engineered towards a battle between Godzilla and these other monsters, but meh. All those scenes with the soldiers really bored me and the main character had almost no personality. I also feel like there are many plot holes.

The best parts were in the first half when they discover the mysterious beings and try to begin giving some explanations. But besides that there is almost no plot.

The sinister end-of-the-world mood is well displayed but after 40 of repeatedly the same stuff, it just gets bland and boring.

So yeah. First half was acceptable. Second half quite boring. Possibly this is just another case where the American adaptation is much worse than the Japanese original? I don't know but I might need to find out for myself.
