Disappointment, but still better than pacific rim

Rating: 6/10 (24 August 2014)

So, from when I was little I have been watching godzilla movies. But when I started to grow up, I could see the bad costumes and effects in the movies. Then came the 1998 godzilla. This wasn't godzilla in my opinion, but it actually was a good movie all in all. The zilla wasn't powerful enough and didn't look bad ass. But the agility and creativity was great!
So the new trailer for the 2014 godzilla arrived and it looked awesome! No more childish costumes and a bad ass looking godzilla! It looked like a horror / action monster movie!
Then I finally watched it. Naah. It was a movie worth seeing and thats it. The horror wasn't there at all, there was bad acting, the storyline was thin and worst of all.. Godzilla looked like a mix between a turtle and a fat grandmother.. The head and the spikes were awesome, but the rest of the creature.. sigh. Why FAT? Why the small arms and tiny head for that body? Watch the ending of the movie and you will see the belly of an fat old lady. The roar didn't make me smile like the old movies, even the 1998 zilla got that right!
But I am giving it a 6 because of the animations and the fights that are shown. The battles between godzilla and the monsters is 5 points alone! Godzilla is Fugly as hell, but it can fight! And then I would give it 1 point for a better story in the beginning at the movie. It lives near the core of the planet and they tried nuke it before. That was gold! But living on radiation alone would mean they suck radiation from the core, not eating it like the movie. Eat radiation? I don't think so.
It is worth watching, but a huge letdown compared to the trailer. I am still waiting for a real godzilla movie. Power, storyline, acting and a hardcore looking godzilla! All these have never been found in a godzilla movie, but it comes closer and I will watch them all to find it!
