What's wrong with Godzilla?

Rating: 4/10 (11 October 2014)

I usually enjoy these science fiction offerings, not necessarily for the story line, but for the quality of the special effects. I realized twenty minutes into this film that I most likely would be disappointed, and I was. The story line makes sense but because of the plodding pace of the movie I was hard pit to pay attention. The night scenes were particularly aggravating because I had a hard time following the action. I watched in HD and just could not make out what was happening. It made me feel as though the director was trying to save money on effects. By the time the film was coming to an end I was frustrated and upset that I had actually spent money on this mess. The Godzilla creature was good and his size very believable . The other creatures just didn't make the cut in their portrayal. This film is so forgettable that I am having trouble remembering it as I write. And the human characters are so forgettable as to be laughable.
