Godzilla is the Man!

Rating: 8/10 (29 May 2014)

So they did the old bait and switch with this movie. The ONLY reason I went to watch this movie was because of Bryan Cranston. I think he is an awesome actor and I love his work. To my dismay he was only a part of the film for the first 20 minutes before his character was killed. OK SOB's you got me. The Olsen girl should never be put in front of a camera again. Why can't she do like her sisters and waste away quietly? She has zero screen presence and whatever acting lessons she took was probably in her sleep. What a horrible miscast. Johnson can't act to save his life but he is so hot. Can't wait to see him put on a pair of tights in the next avengers movie.
OK so besides that the movie was actually good. I liked the twist of making Godzilla the good guy. I also liked the mystery and suspense of not really showcasing Godzilla until the end of the film. Some scenes were just plain bizarre and out of place like Johnson and the Asian boy in the train and the camera focusing on the little girl before the tsunami. The kids could not act and just stared blankly at the camera, act therefore I felt no empathy or urge to protect them. Any who Godzilla was awesome and emerged the champion.
