Well, at least it wasn't as bad as 1998

It seemed about halfway through the movie the director knew it was a turd and stopped caring. Loved the "It's a Wonderful Life" reference. The black dude hugs his family and you hear James Stewart cry, "Mary!" Super cheesy. And what was up with the "2001" music scene? You know, the music when Dave sees the crazy colors. It was during the S.F. monster battle. Talk about awkward. Also, how many "big monster stares down puny human" scenes did they stuff into this one. That money shot is so overused, one is too many. How about the ships escorting Godzilla to S.F.? "Hey, that monster could fart and blow us out of the water, so lets cruise next to it at about 50 feet off starboard." Lol, I could go on and on. Funny for all the wrong reasons.
The most tragic part is that all the main actors could act and they were given nothing to work with. The human element of this movie just got in the way of the eye candy. And it could have used a lot more eye candy. Too much human, not enough monster. As a matter of fact, since the plot for the monsters was actually good, I sat there thinking that it could have been good if there was no human plot at all. It also didn't help that the Cranston family's last name was Brody. If you're gonna draw attention to that monster movie, you'd better deliver.
