The science in Godzilla has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

Godzilla is what happens when a writers' room confuses "ambiguous" with "didn't finish the draft".

If exposition were a contact sport, Godzilla would be banned for life.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Godzilla?
Honestly, Godzilla would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Hot Take: Godzilla's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Director clearly thought Godzilla was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

The cinematography in Godzilla is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Everyone praising the Godzilla performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
