I'm going to start this off by saying the only Godzilla movie I ever watched was the '98 film with Matthew Broderick, which I didn't think was bad, but apparently I'm in the minority. Now, fast forward 16 years and it's time for a Godzilla comeback. The movie itself was a typical "monster movie." Monster comes in, wrecks the city, fights army and/or other monster, then leaves. The cast isn't remarkable. No big names that have been "big" and "buzz-worthy" for more than 5 years. Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Elizabeth Olsen are convincing in their roles. The visuals are pretty nice looking. There's not much in the way of objectionable material other than violence and a few scenes that could be scary for small children.
Overall, I'd give this movie
