Worst Godzilla Movie I've Ever Seen

Rating: Null/10 (17 May 2014)

After all the hype and anticipation, I expected to be entertained. I wasn't. This movie is about a pair of insect-monsters dubbed Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organisms, or MUTOs. (groan) Godzilla is a secondary character at best. Another reviewer mentioned MST3K. I had the same thought. That's where this bomb belongs.
The plot and script are a train wreck. I wasn't anticipating an intellectual exercise. After all, it's a monster movie. However, it's set in the present day so I did expect it to have a quasi-sensible storyline and progression of events. Nope! Not even close.
There's lots of mayhem and destruction but it doesn't make up for all of this films shortcomings. With top-notch effects people on the project, I expected great effects throughout. Well, some are great, some are OK and others are flat out cheesy, which I found confusing and distracting.
Godzilla himself? Excellent. Loved him. That said, he doesn't appear until nearly an hour into the film. I was bored and annoyed by the time he showed up. Adding insult to injury, he had minimal screen time. This Godzilla was so cool that he should have been on screen from start to finish.
Lastly, the soundtrack is deafening. Personally, I like loud. I appreciate it most when it occurs as punctuation in appropriate places. In Godzilla you're assaulted with such a relentlessly high decibel level that it becomes difficult to follow what's happening.
This is by far the most disappointing Godzilla movie I've ever seen.
