Roger Ebert

"Godzilla" doesn't just show. It unveils. It builds sequences gradually, withholding important information until the end of a scene or sequence.

The Guardian

While British director Gareth Edwards's jaw-dropping Godzilla may not have the depth of Honda's original, it exhibits an appreciation and understanding of what made that movie great.

IMDb

The CGI is terrific and Godzilla has a great time smashing things up... The problem is once again the human story.

The Critical Movie Critics

Godzilla. For Godzilla’s sixtieth birthday, I can’t imagine a better gift than the one Gareth Edwards has just given in the form of a massive scale blockbuster.

Common Sense Media

This is both thrilling and broodier than you might expect for this kind of a movie.

Rotten Tomatoes

Godzilla focuses more on the human characters than on the monster fights, and despite the narrative balance needing some adjustments, it surprisingly works quite well.

IMDb

the human element is lacking. Severely here. And what a fantastic cast to waste!
