Was expecting more

Rating: 6/10 (12 May 2014)

I had high hopes for this Godzilla movie, and it started out very well, but eventually turned to become somewhat a mess. I agree that Bryan Cranston acts very well, but it is not enough to make the movie watchable. I feel like the director is insulting our intelligence by letting the army make the same mistakes over and over again (planes falling out of skies even though they knew it would happen) and soldiers carrying ordinary rifles for no reason, the Americans always resolving to the nuke to solve a problem. There is some bad acting in this movie, and the well made CGI cannot make up for it. I felt like the history should have been explained better and the movie should perhaps have had a little more Pacific Rim over its style
