FIVE OBSERVATIONS:
1
I was going to avoid this film at first but after reading a friend’s blog post,
I was swayed to watch it. He’s knows his monster stuff, so I trust his opinion.
He did not steer me wrong. This was an interesting and fun flick. Lots of
entertaining destruction and monster fights. Read his blog here:
2
The
trailer made it seem like it was humanity fighting Godzilla. I was surprised to
see other radioactive creatures doing some damage. Don’t believe the trailer.
3
I did find it kind of weird to see Godzilla as a ‘friend to the humans’,
like he was doing San Francisco a solid by helping them out.
4
Looking behind you while you are running only slows you down. Why don’t
people realize this?
5
If you miss seeing Cranston in a radiation suit, you’re in luck. If only it was
yellow.
RECOMMENDATION: Big monster needs big screen.
