I saw Godzilla tonight

[Crakface]

@Crakface your thoughts and comments to the overwhelming positive reviews?:mjplsalien:

These are the people you call top critics. You poor idiots dont even realize what you're getting yourselves into. Nah this film is still trash. These ratings will be cut in in less then 2 weeks.

No previous Godzilla movie has worried much about the issue of plausibility, but it seems to be an almost crippling concern here... [but Godzilla movies] are ultimately judged by the quality of the mayhem, and Edwards excels at blowing things up.

It's always fun to watch scaly, skyscraper-sized behemoths lay waste to civilisation, but a bit more human drama would be welcome.

"Godzilla" has technical prowess and computing power that the early efforts could only dream of; but by upping the effects without paying attention to the affect, "Godzilla" gains majesty and loses meaning.

Director Gareth Edwards (Monsters) gets the money shots right, but neither he nor screenwriter Max Borenstein (working from a story by David Callaham) makes the human characters interesting enough to get us through two mostly Godzilla-free acts.

The former. The idea they keep going back to is that it's an avatar of nature itself, sent to restore balance to the planet we've degraded (not literally, of course.) Also, I believe this Godzilla is a female, according to the director.
