GODZILLA shows up too late to save this movie

Rating: 4/10 (19 May 2014)

The movie poster art leads you to believe you are going to see Godzilla stomping and smashing buildings, trashing and burning down cities in his path, doesn't it? Well guess what? It's leading you on.
The movie isn't really even ABOUT Godzilla at ALL. If you add up all the time Godzilla is actually shown on screen, it probably adds up to less than 15-20 minutes. If you add up all the time that Godzilla is being discussed by the dumbstruck human characters in the film, you might have another 5 minutes, tops. If you add up all the screen time the story spends on the other two monsters and the scientists awakening them, and getting out of their way, then you've got the rest of the 2 hour film. It's like Legendary were finished making a CLOVERFIELD-like monster movie, AND THEN decided to license Godzilla at the last minute, tacking-on just enough scenes of him arriving to kill them off at the end, to sell it as a Godzilla movie.
They should have called it MUTOS.
The ball is back in TOHO's court to make the definitive modern CGI-GODZILLA movie, because this ain't it. >:(
