I
honestly can't think of anything that really, properly works about
this movie. Why is Godzilla a giant mutant lizard? He should be an
ancient angry god beast. Why is every character is isn't worm guy
comic relief? Seriously, this film is full of really dumb characters.
At different points I thought it was turning into either 'Friends' or
'The Simpsons'.
There
are lots of coincidental meet ups with Godzilla, and we're always
following along as some wacky character or other happens to go after
him. No one ever really seemed scared in this movie, I was never
close to being scared (or feeling anything) while watching it.
The
dumb Godzilla babies were dumb. They were possibly the worst
example of bad CG (like no shadows, bad lighting, limited interaction
with the real environment etc) but Godzilla is terrible too. The
whole movie takes place in the rain to hide how bad the CG is. Oh and
Godzilla keep changing size! And why did they try the fish thing
twice? And why were the helicopters flying through the city between
the buildings? Oh, and you know the worst thing? Godzilla dies. Godzilla doesn't die.
So
yeah, watch this if you want to watch a shitty version of 'Jurassic
Park' with a big dinosaur watch this. If you want to watch a Godzilla
movie, watch the originals.
