Good Monsters/Boring Humans
31 May 2019
Warning: Spoilers
With all the films and the mastery of special effects, we take for granted that movie monsters are going to be quite remarkable. I enjoyed watching them, especially Ghidrah. But then we have this lame plot with a nutcase deciding it would be good for the earth if most of the people were eliminated and we started over. The female/mother character has bought into this and is about to send the world to oblivion. The acting is so bad and the actions of the characters ridiculous. Standing around while nuclear radiation is a few feet away. Or a monster is right in front of them. Leaving a submarine and standing on the tower while Godzilla appears, instead of staying submerged. And the search fo the daughter at Fenway Park. I have to give credit. It was certainly loud but like watching a Star Trek episode, I challenge anyone to really understand the science. I wish it had been a better, more gripping story. Finally, like so many movies of its type, the loss of life is beyond belief and people don't seem all that concerned about their brothers and sisters.
