Da ich gerade auf imdb stromere, hier ein paar Kurzrezensionen, die es auf den Punkt bringen:
Monsters great, people and drama boring
Great and Amazing battles/fights among giant monsters, epic and spectacular ones, what everybody was waiting for, if you want to enjoy good monsters and CGI this is you movie, go watch it on the best screen 8.5/10... But the plot is weak, people are stupid and make meaningless decisions. People's behavior is absurd, with a lot of boring drama that nobody cares, in addition the actors who are supposed to be the main ones have no time on screen. A Total disappointment.
Monsters 10/10, Visuals 9/10, Story 3/10
Writers ruin what could have been a fantastic movie
Ever since the perfection of CGI, Hollywood has come to the conclusion that if the special effects are good, then then movie is good. Thus, my 5 star rating. Half of the movie involved the monster battles and that gets 10 stars. The half of the movie where there is no monster presence gets 0. That averages out to a 5. Perhaps some day Hollywood will re-discover the lost art of screen writing and combine it with CGI to create a truly fantastic movie.
Monsters awesome, rest meh
The whole dramatic family story wasn't able to catch me. It isn't annoying, but allways kind of irrelevant. Every scene including monsters on the other hand is stuning. In General the monster design, the CGI, the fights and the whole cinematography aswell are beyond beautiful. I recommand the movie because of those monster scenes. Everything what happens around that is more like a 3/10
ARGH JUST KILL THE HUMANS ALREADY
To much screen time for the humans.
Next Movie they do they need to let the monsters fight more rather than letting us listen or watch the people story. I like Godzilla, but this movie was pretty bad only Bec of the lack of screen time for the monsters fighting. I want to see a Godzilla movie with humans not humans with Godzilla. The main character, which is in the damn title, Godzilla has barely any screen time. I
"the lost art of screen writíng" beschreibt gut, woran es in Hollywood seit einigen Jahren hapert. Das kommt vielleicht von den ganzen Comicverfilmungen und damit einhergehend der Angst vor Risiken? Die guten Drehbuchschreiber scheinen Richtung Serien abgewandert zu sein. Wobei das Drehbuch zu GoT Episode 8... Keine Ahnung, wo die geblieben sind.
