9.7/10.The Godzilla we should've gotten in the 2000's.Still it was worth the wait.I had no problem with Godzilla not appearing soon enough, it was like the shark in Jaws, to fuel our imagination.If anything it worked, then Godzilla showed up it paid off.Aaron Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Ken Watanabe, Sally Hawkins, and Bryan Cranston were a well put together cast.I liked the look of the MUTO's who seemed to be fueled from nightmares.The idea of such creatures having roamed the earth before man who're now revived certainly worked in the realm of science fiction.Godzilla himself is as good here as he was in the original 1954 version.Forget the 90's disaster with that doofus Mathew Broderrick, this is the true Godzilla.One of the best scenes was when he's leaving after seemingly having died.He stops at the water, then lets out his epic roar before diving in and swimming off.That shot was magnificent and made me eager for the sequel.It too would be well worth the wait.

Godzilla (2014) is a monster bash between the toothsome, nuclear-powered predator and the MUTOs, strange creatures that also eat power, people and whatever else they want to. Soldiers, children and more get in the way of their attacking one another, including an inconvenient pairing of Elizabeth Olsen and Aaron Taylor-Johnson. The bad news is that Godzilla doesn't have much screen time and feels as if too much time is wasted on its human players.

Continuity mistake: When Juliette Binoche is running for her life in the tunnel near the beginning of the movie, when the running starts you can see all men run pass Juliette and then she's the last runner. There's even a shot when she's looking back at the leaking water and is last, with no-one behind her. A second later she's in the front of the running group.

Trivia: Ken Watanabe is named "Dr. Ishiro Serizawa." His first name "Ishiro" comes from the director of several previous Godzilla films, Ishiro Honda. The last name "Serizawa" is the name of the character in the 1954 original film who invents a device to kill Godzilla, Dr. Daisuke Serizawa.

More trivia for Godzilla

Question: Why are they transporting entire missiles instead of just detaching the warheads (which are air portable)?

Answer: Because detaching them and reattaching them would have taken time, which they didn't have.

But, after the crash, they remove the warheads and transport them by helicopter and leave the boosters behind, as they only need the warheads.
