    SERIOUSLY WTF...

    Who the hell wrote that inane piece of crap?

    Other than the story being kinda lame, there are SO many small stupid annoying things:

    1) Stupid annoying protagonist (Matthew Broderick) proudly claims "It's a burrower". No problem, but why does it then have these enormous spikes/plates on it's back??

    2) The millitary are for the n'th time portrayed as stupid clowns with guns, who just fire randomly at the target

    3) Why the **** is Jean Reno in this movie?? I really like him, but this is just embarrasing. At some point he and Moron Broderick are just about to drive away in a Hummer, but generic french guy Reno can't get it to move, only make noise. Then Maverick Broderick completely non-humourus says "It's not in gear"... AARGRGHHHH please do NOT have stupid annoying american tell a french guy how to drive a FREAKING STICK... (no offense to americans who are not stupid and annoying :D)

    4) Worm-Guy Maverick tries to explain why good ol' Gojira has travelled all the way from French Polynesia to NY just lay some. It goes something like this: "Many animals travel far to lay their eggs", well holy ****ing Attenborough no ****!! Now I'm no biologist, but isn't the reason that they travel that they have this mental kinship connection to their BIRTHPLACE:wallbash:

    5) Now I missed all the action just because my multitasking skills suck :miffed:

    6) Super-stud Dr. Know it all Motherick, has this quite simple greek last name literally everyone can't pronounce it, I hate those gags they aren't the least bit funny.

    7) They were chasing big bad baddie with liek omg 10 apaches shootin sidewinders and ****, but they can't hit..."We can't use our guidance, it's cold" or something. Fair enough its a big reptile, but down at HQ they have this snazzy screen that shows all the troops and buildings and other stuff, and get this, A BIG BLINKING CROSS FOLLOWING THE MONSTER???!!! WHAT:waah:

    I give up....

    The movie you refer to is not Godzilla. It's GINO, Godzilla in name only.

    Go watch the proper Japanese ones. Those are Godzilla.

    Put the DVD back in the machine and grab a couple beers. Godzilla will do that. It's crap but if you listen to it in a foreign language dub like French or Spanish it will crack you up!! Especially a language you don't speak.
    Not the best Godzilla movie ever. But.... really not the worst one. Catch the one with the time travelers who go back and forth. Way dumber.

    Well, as a Godzilla connoisseur, It's godzilla in name only, sure, but did you know they actually made it canon in Godzilla: Final Wars? Now THAT's a B-movie if there ever was one.
