Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Am I Missing Something?
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

View MoreStarted out promising, some great cinematography, but rapidly devolved into American Action Movie Mess®Way too broad in scope, so the origin story is buried, shuffled past, and just too much is happening. The Hero is absolutely generic, in looks, as written, and has no acting ability at all. At least when we're promised the movie is full of Bryan Cranston and Juliette Binoche and he acts alongside one of them for a while. It sticks out. Action scenes are poorly done, so it's often hard to tell what is going on. Or, things make no sense. Or, it's just so dark you cannot tell anything is happening at all. Despite, apparently, thousands dead, there is no sense of consequences. The peril is told, not felt, not really shown. Maybe that's all they could get with PG13, but in that case: make a different movie. HORRIBLE continuity and accuracy. Forget plausibility, we can go with alternative histories and stuff, but the same buildings are destroyed multiple times, "EMPs" work when needed for the plot instead of on all devices, a clone of SFO is in Hawaii, and Yucca Mountain is in the hills outside San Francisco, the bay is a mile deep, and much more that is distractingly stupid and awful.
View MoreI wanted to like this but the script was pathetic. I have to say that the monster action was great. Seeing the battles on the big screen was very satisfying. Unfortunately the story line for the humans was horrible. What army blocks a bridge so school buses can't escape? Also why would they send school buses across the golden gate to get out of the city? It seems like they put people in peril only to fill the monster moments. I really wanted to like this but the only fun I had was yelling at the screen at the disastrous plot points. A real failure that could have been so good to the godzilla traditions.
View MoreMy grandpa and I were in the hospital when this movie came on and he had so many issues with this movie that he asked that I get on here and let people know that this movie is inaccurate in every way. He also asked me to pull the plug so he wouldn't have to finish this movie.
View MoreYawn. One of the worst Godzilla movies ever. It even plagurized music from 2001: A Space Oddity. It did one thing for me however, I will rush out and purchase Godzilla 2000. You
