This was easily the best Godzilla rebirth with modern movie making. This was a million times better than the nonsense with Matthew Broderick a couple years back. The effects were awesome. The build up to the monsters appearing was great. The actors who were really secondary to the monsters all did a great job. And for me the best part was that the filmmakers didn't get wrapped up in too much mass destruction. Sure, cities were destroyed but it wasn't like one of the Transformers movies or Pacific Rim last year where it was just non-stop building beating. Most of the fight scenes would segway into it being shown on the news or something. By doing this, they made it so the final fight scenes still felt fresh 90 minutes after they had started. I thought that was an incredibly smart decision.
I would recommend anyone who is into these types of movies go check this out. I was trying to keep my expectations in check and they started to get pretty high, but this movie still met them as far as I was concerned.
