Everything in this movie screams cheap and rushed. Poor acting, poor structure, poor casting, poor directing, lazy plot, cheap CGI and etc. Everything is just so cliche, from the villains to the protagonist they're exactly what you'd imagined them to be without any added depth of character, add this with bad acting and you have a two-hour cringe fest. Not to mention how everything is so convenient for the characters (a common symptom to lazy scriptwriting), like how when all of a sudden they need helicopters to move something big somewhere and then BAMM!!! Helicopters out of nowhere! Conveniently appearing to save a poorly laid out plot from crumbling on itself. And like when they immediately need special high tech transports to go somewhere no man can go....BAMM!!! High tech transports conveniently plotted out and so new that even it's makers seems to be surprised by what it can do.... The only thing redeeming about this movie for me is that Godzilla looks freaking sick and the fights are good, but even that couldn't convince me to stay for the whole movie. As a Godzilla geek I feel betrayed... That something as Iconic and legendary as Godzilla could be made into 'Just another summer movie'. It's almost like the whole team treated Godzilla (and Kong) as just another assignment, instead of the iconic titans that deserves an equally iconic movie. The end-result is a poorly thought out movie that didn't even come close to delivering. Just leave Godzilla to the Japanese, they have the passion where Hollywood lacks it. Rating: 2/10
