Complete waste of money

Rating: 1/10 (22 May 2014)

I think 1 star for this film is more than it deserves. I'd been wanting to watch this movie for a while now, and I managed to go last night. I was bored after the first few minutes, because nothing really happens. Oh you see buildings destroyed and people are killed, but the suspense is so dull, their was no feeling whatsoever.
Why Godzilla can't be seen in the opening sequence I'll never know. In the beginning of the film, man see's his wife get killed because it looks like an earthquake. Nothing to say anything different! Yet for some dumb reason, 15 years later he knows it wasn't a quake it was a cover up. Really? The only prove he has is....wait a minute he has no prove because he never saw anything to say otherwise. OK maybe we can forgive them for this dull opening sequence, maybe the rest of the film gets better and better. If you think that then you are very much mistaken. For the next 60 minutes or so nothing happens and I mean nothing whatsoever. It's just some dull acting and people looking like they have constipation. After a long dull first hour we finally get to see the monster...hang on, scratch that comment...because the monster we see is actually a radioactive eating flying bug. Yep you got it a 'bug'. A bug for some reason has been a round for millions of years and been living radiation. (Can you see the big mistake?) Its not for at least another 20 minutes before we get to see who we've all paid to go and see...Godzilla himself. Sadly though we only see his dull spikes on the back of him. When he finally does appear, it turns out he's coming to the rescue and kill this giant 'fly' and wait for it...the flies none flying mate to stop them from having more uninteresting bug babies. Eventually at long last Godzilla catches bug number 1 and I have to admit the Japanese beast gives a terrific raw. Eventually we are going to be treated to at least a decent fight between the 2 creatures. Er..no! Soon as 'ol 'Zilla raws, they cut the scene to boring humans, doing boring uninteresting stuff that has nothing whatsoever with the rest of the plot. After nearly an hour and fifty minutes we the creatures start to fight. At this point I was so bored, I got up and left the film.
Godzilla is a dull uninteresting monster movie. They mocked the 1998 version. It might not have been brilliant, but at least we saw plenty of the beast smashing stuff up. In this version Godzilla is here to defend the world. What a complete waste of money and time watching it.
My advice, don't bother
