Saw it this afternoon and really enjoyed it! It was actually the first Godzilla movie I’ve ever seen. So I went into it pretty blind after I’d seen the trailer a while ago.
It had a lot of heart; actually a surprising bit of drama for what I’d usually imagine in movies like this. It has the usual pretty telegraphed punches, but overall I’d say it’s a decent movie. It’s not something that I’d outright buy a ticket for, but since I’ve got an unlimited movie pass, all it costs me was the time. And I consider it well spent.
