Not bad, not amazing either...

Thought I'd leave a short review of this for everyone.
Just watched the movie in 3D and have the following observations to share. The story is changed from the previous editions and is a fresh take on the tale. Please keep in mind that my reference for that is having watched the 1998 edition of Godzilla which had Godzilla attacking Manhattan.
The pros include great CGI, a fresh story-line and a whole lot of *new* I did leave the theater a little underwhelmed though. Despite the story being a new take, it tended to get confused with two separate story-lines - the human interest angle and the actual Godzilla portion. Both those portions, to me, seemed a little half baked and I wished for more.
I just left thinking that there wasn't enough of Godzilla in the tale, and as I don't want to spoil the plot, I do believe many of you will take away the same feeling after leaving the theater. I believe great special effects isn't always enough, and though the whole tale is a work of fiction, certain plot movements are beyond plausibility even considering that...
But is a fairly entertaining tale, meant for the big screen. Lots of popcorn and you may leave satiated, but not necessarily fulfilled.
Thats just my two cents though ;)
