Concept: A
Story: C
Characters: D
Dialog: D
Pacing: C
Cinematography: B
Special effects/design: A
Acting: B
Music: A
Enjoyment: The focus is on the characters, which is great from the standpoint of teasing the monster, but also kind of awful since the characters are not even remotely interesting. It's a lot better than I expected it to be, though. Godzilla kicks ass, and the movie's a lot of fun whenever he's around. B

GPA: 2.7/4
