I am one of those haters you have all been talking about. This movie was so g.d. boring. Just because some people think it was boring does not mean that they wanted to see an all-out, two hour action fest. (For the record, I really really hate movies like Revenge of the Fallen.) Yes, I would have liked a bit more monster action in G2014. But overall, the boring human drama was what killed this movie for me. By the time of the final fight, my brain was already checked out.

To clarify: I call the human drama in this film "boring." This does not mean that I do not like human drama. It's just that the human drama in Godzilla 2014 was not interesting enough to sustain the film. Ford Brody was not nuanced. There was no texture there for me to grab onto. Total bore-zilla.
