the monster should always be the star!

Rating: 6/10 (8 January 2015)

The problem with this movie is similar to many big budget monster movies in that it fails to recognise that the monster is the real star attraction, instead this movie decided to concentrate on the human aspect , it fails miserably as the characters excluding cranston and watanabe aren't appealing in the slightest. In regards to the action it also fails. The monsters in my opinion look incredible and wish there was more of it, unfortunately as soon as it starts to build up it cuts to the humans again and completely kills the tension. I don't hate this movie, it is watchable, but don't watch pacific rim and think you are going to get more of the same, the flip side is if you hated pacific rim you may like this.on another note this movie is leaps and bounds above the previous godzilla film and there are signs the filmmakers are fans of godzilla (atomic breath is awesome)
