Good. Could have been better.

Rating: 5/10 (22 May 2014)

--- Non-spoiler part --- Good movie, better than previous Godzilla from Hollywood. Could have been better with more focus on certain characters, especially the main feature of the movie.
--- SPOILER PART --- (stop reading now if you don't want the movie to be SPOILED for you) What the hell is with focusing on the son??? And how dare they kill off Heisenberg so early!!! The trailers misled me into believing that Walter White had so much more to do in the movie. Instead, the best shining actor is killed off so early leaving nothing more than a mediocre actor and actress trying so hard to win empathy from the viewers but ultimately failing in the process.
The movie is Godzilla. Instead, you get so much focus on human interactions with each other that Godzilla seemed totally irrelevant to the movie itself. Godzilla's total appearances amount to nothing more than 15 minutes MAX. And these are divided into short glimpses of the actual GODZILLA.
You are thrown left, right, and centre focusing on the Rookie Admiral, the Clueless Doctor, the Irrelevant Son and Daughter-in-law of Walter, and all other extras all trying so hard in their own efforts to do something to look busy and occupied, and hogging screen time away from GODZILLA.
Ultimately, this movie cannot match up to any of the CG monster fighting movies, or even scenes with monsters in them because of the lack of focus. Pacific Rim makes this movie look amateur; Pacific Rim's trailers promised you monster brawls and followed through with this promise and gave you more than you expected. Godzilla broke its promise to deliver enough of both GODZILLA and Heiseinberg.
I must say they did a good job at weaving together the origins of GODZILLA and the MUTOs, but fail to deliver a satisfying monster battle, and even worse, failing to deliver what the movie is titled after.
