That's a bit unfair maybe, as it has some great shots in it and it's an otherwise decent movie, but it has problems, especially for a monster movie and super especially for a Godzilla movie. That stuff comes with expectations.

So, other than being a generally visually disarming movie with a decent amount of emotional heart-string tugging before we get to the action (did i mention you don't get to see Godzilla for nearly an hour? No, well that's problem number 1
Even after that hour hes barely in the film. It's like Godzilla had a cameo in his own movie. We see far more of the big moth things. Hell we see more of Bryan Cranston! Give me the Broderick film any day. And I don't even like Matthew Broderick.
