Talk:Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla/@comment-3082508-20140202071910

This is one another one of those Godzilla films I have mixed feelings for. I love the designs of both Godzilla and MG. I also love all the money shots of Godzilla in the in beginning of the film. I also love how it brought back some Showa elements.

But I thought the story could have been better. Again like GMK, this is a film that tries to get you to root for the other monster instead of Godzilla which I hate. When I watch a Godzilla movie, I want to see Godzilla kick ass; not get his ass kicked. I also wasn't too fond of the story. This story was a lot like Godzilla vs. Megaguirus with a female lead holding a long grudge on Godzilla and would continue to hold it. I wished they would have a story like the Half Century comic which has a solider determined to take down Godzilla, but over time ends up respecting Godzilla and accepts him for what he is. While I loved the concept of MG being built over the 54 Godzilla's bones, I felt it didn't have a real payoff besides MG going crazy in one scene (highlight of the film). I would have loved to see more of it and maybe have a scene where both Godzilla and MG end up working with each other. I thought something like that would have happened in Tokyo SOS, which it didn't. Overall though, I do enjoy this film; but it's another I don't love. Not bad, but it's not one of the best in my eyes.
