Wow so here's one, and if you'd told me I would be posting this a couple of hours ago I would have punched you in the face:
The 1998 version of American Godzilla was better than the 2014 movie. The new Godzilla movie is pretty bad and after the halfway mark when the kaiju are revealed it just becomes boring. I honestly did not know that a kaiju movie could be boring but here we are. As bad as the '98 one was it at least had focus and sustained themes instead of not knowing whether it's a kaiju movie or a story about a guy in a disaster (and failing at both) and whether it wants to be about father-son relationships (and aside from Joe and Ford failing utterly at it, and that success is solely down to Cranston's acting strength) or insipid troute where we're simultaneously at nature's mercy but how very very dare we try to use any of the tools that might save us.
Sorry new Godzilla movie team, but just the fact of seeing Godzilla's existence and appealing to nostalgia isn't enough to make a movie actually good.
