I give this movie a 6.5/10. It's technically and visually a solid work. I enjoyed most of its parts, some were disappointing.

- Awesome fights.

- A coherent setting, not bad for a giant monster movie.

- The build up is too long, we should have a big fight when Godzilla catch up with the flying MUTO in Hawaii, not a TV-flash for a few seconds with a cut to the aftermaths. I mean everybody knows Godzilla, it's an iconic pop-culture figure, why trying so hard to keep it off screen just to preserve it for the climax ?
That was a problem there, it feels the story does not flow as it should. The movie is formatted like a disaster one, and my brain wanted too see a toku one with monsters beating the crap out of each other.

- Too much elements to enforce drama: lost kid in Hawaii, Serisawa's watch, etc. Anyway, I can't see the watch memento trick in any movie without thinking of Christopher Walken watch in Pulp Fiction.

- Emmerich 1998'Godzilla has a lot of bad ideas, that scene with the larvaes was too reminiscent of it. It was there just to allows the main character to have something to do and save the day (the reason everything explode is not very convincing by the way). Like launching the boat while half dead was not enough for KickAss.

- A nuke explode 5mn away from boat from the city, depending of the winds in the end all the survivors are irradiated and will die from a slow agony.
