Much like Pacific Rim, great icing but no content

Rating: 3/10 (30 March 2015)

I wonder if Hollywood has decided that catering to the teen crowd is enough when producing blockbuster action movies like Godzila 2014 edition. Much like Pacific Rim this is a visually impressive film but that's also all there is. Bryan Cranston saves his career by only appearing in the decently appealing first 30 minutes or so.
Plot: well, I must say it makes the 1998 movie look really good. And that wasn't much to start with. There isn't really one.
Acting: a strong cast are given plain, boring characters to work with and I find particular fault with the Japanese researcher that has about 1.5 facial expressions throughout the film.
Filming: the CGI is excellent but poor editing and pacing ruins its prescence. There are so many tedious part in this action movie that makes you genuinely bored at times.
No really Hollywood, start realizing that if you're going to spend $160 M on a movie, also spend some on a decent script.
