Great Godzilla film, not as epic as I hoped. Judge for yourself

Rating: 8/10 (18 May 2014)

This film is well made and has excellent scenes. The issue I found with it was that the whole time I kept wanting to really see Godzilla in all his glory, it never really happened. A few scenes came close, but overall I went home slightly disappointed the first time I watched it.
I watched it for the second time the next day and enjoyed it much more. I could see what the director was doing with it. I still wish we saw a really long battle that didn't cut to humans so often, but I am sure they'll do it in the sequel.
The acting was OK, but the human characters were not supposed to be very interesting in my opinion. The two monsters' had depth and character even compared to Godzilla who was pretty laid back the whole time. Though the mutus did look almost generic, kinda like the bugs from starship troopers (which were cool at the time), but I found it easy to get over that.
Overall a great film. I really hope for the next film that they create more interesting looking monsters, polish the human contribution, and give us longer awesome fight scenes. For this one I rated it an 8 for great effort, but 7.5 is pretty close to how I felt about it.
Do see it if you haven't yet.
