It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

My grandpa and I were in the hospital when this movie came on and he had so many issues with this movie that he asked that I get on here and let people know that this movie is inaccurate in every way. He also asked me to pull the plug so he wouldn't have to finish this movie.

Godzilla by Gareth Edwards will polarize audiences. For one the giant lizard is barely on screen and even the fleeting moments are punctured by the focus being strictly on the humans. This is not to say this is a bad adaptation of the iconic Japanese monster- if anything this is more faithful than the 1998 effort. The scenes of mayhem are well executed but we have seen all the carnage so many times it doesn't surprise us anymore. De-sensitivity has set in and even scenes of massive waves rising and hurling towards land don't bring out any kind of excitement. On the other hand, some moments of silence are good- including a scene on a railway track which is a highlight. The actors are all competent.

I think this has to be the most underrated of the Godzilla movies, it deserved more than it. People keep complaing about Godzilla's lack of screen time, what they don't realize is that it's pretty much every godzilla movie...EVER. At least Godzilla had his moments, that's all that's important right. People also complain that the Mutos (Didn't like them at all) got more appearances then Godzilla, But Again, That's every godzilla movie EVER! The Movie Had it's ups and downs, but i liked it

Yet again, some people are ruining the reviewing/rating system by popping in to give a 10/10 rating and a superlative review, then disappearing into the woodwork. Are such people cast or crew members? Or this friends and relatives? Whatever, I wish they would STOP it ! Roll on the day when there are only HONEST reviews on the IMDb.
One typically suspect review is headed "Godzilla - The TRUE King of the Monsters is born... " and was submitted by "purenxk" who has reviewed ONLY this one movie !
I found this attempt at GODZILLA to be mildly entertaining, with some fine effects, BUT I expected much more in 2014. The movie was severely dragged down by a silly "lovematch" early on, particularly as the girl is so unappealing and speaks in a mumble !!
Probably worth seeing if you've nothing better to do, but nothing special.
5/10 and that's my HONEST opinion.
