    I don't get why everybody hates this movie so much.

    Godzilla looked great in it. He came to town, wreaked havoc, easily fought off those army guys, he evaded their trap, dodged their missiles, hid from their choppers before destroying them and then he went underground where they couldnt find him.

    Plus he was portrayed as a sympathetic protagonist, like Godzilla should be. He merely defended himself against army attacks and tried to protect his offspring.

    Overall the movie was fun and entertaining and in no way bad.

    So why all the hate?

    Because it was the way they did Godzilla.
    The Appeal of Godzilla is the fact that its a dude in a suit stomping on little toys.
    That being said The US version is alright.

    I thought the appeal of Godzilla was a gigantic lizard fucking up cities and fending off the army and other monsters.

    Because it was scatter brained, they couldn't decide whether the audience should be rooting for or against Zilla. Zilla spent most of the movie RUNNING AWAY from the army whereas Godzilla's thing has always been that he goes face forward into every obstacle taking it's best shot. The humans were boring and unfunny (LOL SISKEL AND EBERT). Zilla couldn't stop changing size and could teleport, or so it seemed. The Zilla babies and final chase made it into a Jurassic Park clone. The Zilla babies could only escape through the front door as opposed to the GIANT HOLE IN THE ROOM THAT THEY WERE BORN IN.
    Ultimately, it's not a terrible monster movie, but it is NOT a Godzilla movie.

    >. The Zilla babies could only escape through the front door as opposed to the GIANT HOLE IN THE ROOM THAT THEY WERE BORN IN.

    I don't get what you're going on about or why you're emphasizing that point because its pretty far off. The babies never tried to escape, they were chasing the humans. The bomb goes off almost as soon as they get to the doors meaning there is no time to escape. They didn't have time to get through the hole. I'm sure a giant raging fireball followed wherever that hole lead anyway.

    I didn't really 'hate' this movie.. but I definatley preferred Godzilla 2000.
    Corny, bad acting japanese guys with thier speech outta sync with the words, and some dude in a big rubber suit.
    This, my friends, is the soul of Godzilla.
    I give them credit for trying to reboot the franchise, or whatever.. ((and Ferris Bueler is a pretty decent actor.. sometimes..)) but overall, it didn't have that classic 'feel' to it.
    I rate this in my personal category of 'popcorn movies'
    Movies that have alotta fancy effects, and badass CG with explosions out the ass, and rake in shitloads of cash. But then.. wither away slowly, and soon gets overtaken by the next bigger, shiner thing.

    idiot.
    the whole point of the original godzilla was the direct reference to the a-bomb & the destruction it did.

    Why the hate? Because the name Godzilla is one of the most iconic of all-time. When you hear that name you think of a giant monster destroying a city and getting into a fight with a giant monster. When you saw this movie neither of these two things happened. Instead, Ferris Bueller was the main character and Godzilla looked very weak. On top of that creature design was complete shit. Wanna know why all of this happened?

    "Roland Emmerich admitted that he did not like the original Godzilla movies - he only agreed to the project after being promised to be able to do what ever he wanted with the series."

    That is all you need to know. This movie should have been one of the top five grossing movies of all-time; Godzilla with a budget and American effects, instead it was an abortion.

    I concur, hence why Kaiju Big Battle also seems like a fun thing to do.

    The only redeeming part of the movie was the French guy. When a French guy is the only redeeming factor ... shit sucks man.

    The rest of the world needs to stop eating up our shit and maybe it'll give Hollywood less incentive to make shitty CG orgies. You're just as much at fault as the rest of the world.

    I like it better than the 60s and 70s Godzilla movies, to be honest. Still, it's not a proper Godzilla movie.
