A little bit Good but theres too much rain in these parts and none of audience seen Zilla in sunny daylight yet I didn't know that Kevin Dunn who did Ron Witwicky in Transformers series was in this film.
Not the least successful of all remake films but it does give Godzilla a new appearance to his spooty old fashion puppet suit self in the japanese monster films, When Godzilla: Final Wars finish the Franchise and TriStar Pictures has no chance to do sequels for Godzilla (1998 film) Warner Bros. & Legendary Pictures fulfill the reboot version of Godzilla next year.

I like the film but it aint Godzilla folks

There's never been a correlation between the name Roland Emmerich and subtle. I doubt there ever will be, and those brave enough to sit through his world ending explosion filled popcorn guff can truly say they've been treated to some amazing eye candy short on anything else.
Emmerich isn't big on character development. He really doesn't have to be as all of the crash bang wallop assailing your senses is meant to take your attention from the fact that any…

It's a terrible Godzilla movie, yes, but damn, if it isn't an entertaining monster movie overall. It's not great by any means, but it's a movie I'll watch from time to time just to turn my brain off for two hours and watch the city get annihilated by a giant creature. Not Emmerich's best, which still goes to 'Independence Day', but a "it's so bad it's good", fun film overall.

roland emmerich's at it again

On the surface this should be a mildly entertaining blockbuster. But because it's so derivative, ludicrous, wooden, pathetic and just outright quite nasty, Roland Emmerich's Godzilla is one of the most contemptible blockbusters ever made.
What an utter, utter, utter piece of shit. Fuck you Roland, fuck you.

When I was very little, this was my favourite film ever. I had all the toys, I used to watch this almost everyday and I thought Godzilla was God. Literally, I actually thought God and Godzilla were the same thing. Either way, it was fair to say after I fell in love with this giant dinosaur sea monster motherfucker that I wanted to see more but my Mum never really let me see more and since I was without the…

Let's forget for a second that this is about a one of the most popular monsters worldwide, and think of it is a typical monster thriller. What a load of rubbish this was! And now let's remember that this is about one of the most popular monsters worldwide. What an even bigger load of rubbish this was! If Roland Emmerich wanted to make a bad monster movie than he should have made it with a nameless monster. To simply stick…

A part of me wonders how much of next year's remake is going to match this movie (if at all). Specifically, I wonder if, instead of blowing up Madison Square Garden, the Barclays Center is going to be blown up instead.
Not like the Nets are using it for anything, y'know?

According to Toho Studio, the official name for the American Godzilla is "Zilla".
Wow. A part of me wishes that I didn't know that.
Like I mentioned in…

Apparently, Roland Emmerich saw Jurassic Park and then 4 years later he thought Godzilla was a giant T-Rex who has the asexuality of the dinos on Isla Nublar and so he ends up having eggs that hatch and become Velociraptors.
So then the Baby Velociraptor Godzilla babies eat fish and hunt down the cast of The Simpsons and Inspector Gadget while Daddy (or would it prefer Mr. Mom?) runs away from the U.S. military who end up destroying more of New York City than the rampaging giant mutant lizard dinosaur does. All of this happens in the rain.
The end.

The rainy New York location is used well and the first act manages to build suspense pretty well but this is a film which hasn't done too well with age. Matthew Broderick is just too wet to work in this role, Maria Pitillo annoys for the entire runtime and much of the action feels almost made up on the spot with Godzilla managing to get out of trouble by ducking a lot. It's not a trainwreck but it's far from "good".
