How can characters be so stupid ?

Rating: 2/10 (1 January 2004)

Characters were terribly stupid. I enjoyed watching them die and wish they would all die. This is no spoiler as in such films you expect people to die. Here not only you expect them to die, you _want_ them to die.
I just couldn't believe someone could write such a poor script. Man I was wrong ! Other stories by Koepp aren't that bad but this one... Oh Lord !
I still can't understand why this ""movie"" (errhh ?) has a higher rating than Emmerich's Godzilla. Special FX in Godzilla are at least as good. Characters are funny (Jean Reno as the French agent with all the clichés over Americans, the mayor, etc...) and less stupid. Godzilla is at least as entertaining.
Let's say Spielberg and Koepp needed money by that time to pay bills. I guess.
If Godzilla is 4/10, this one is 2/10.
