You can probably come up with negatives about this movie, but actually, for $4.99 with super saver shipping, this movie delivers pretty good entertainment. It's worth it alone for the pier scene. I consider it a campy remake of the original, which is still the best, but at least the language and violence level are such that I can show it to my grandchildren.

This truly is GINO(Godzilla in name only).
Gone is the fear of nuclear holocaust, gone the fear of the unstoppable force of nature known as Gojira(Godzilla). Gone is the giant who is indifferent to the weapons of man. Gone is the terriying atomic|nuclear ray.
Replaced is a giant iguana that eats fish and runs away alot. The military is portrayed as morons, too many inconsistencies:
Can't lock on to him because he is cold...HUH? Even slugs give off body heat.
Mayor barking out orders, the mayor would have no say since the city would be under marshall law.
It is pregnant? Godzilla is supposed to be unique.
You did not have that sense of fear or dread and drama, just mindless CGI.
For a good chunk of the film little raptpor ripoffs are running around.
Isn't this a giant monster flick???
Obvious alien and Jurassic Park ripoffs.
People can make fun of the man in suite, this Godzilla looked like Gumby. He looked like playstation graphics in some scenes moved super fast, like it is rushed off the screen. No fluid movement. CGI is hit or miss.
Its gets lost in NY?? In a city of millions?? He burrows???
Acting was hammed up, most of the actors were Simpsons voices. Ay Caramba!
Godzilla had no presense, it was just a scared creature running away alot.
Godzilla v Hedorah was superior to this, least he put up a fight.
If you want a good monster flick that is an edge of your seat movie I strongly recommend getting a copy of Cloverfield when that comes out.
Audrey Timmonds was correct ITS GOJIRA YOU MORONS. This is not Godzilla.
 Exactly what I ordered... February 11, 2008

I simply don't get it... Why on earth everyone hates this movie so much? Is it because it's like a million times better than all those cheesy old movies? With all the lights and things that asians love? If you like Jiban, Ultraman, Dragon Ball and all of that asian crap then go and get the old Godzilla movies. If you are in for a good popcorn flick with very good special FX and a funny ALA ID4 tone, then this is your movie. I for one loved it and I keep watching it from time to time even after all these years. I'm just waiting for it to make it's way to BluRay so I can enjoy it even more.
I certainly hope they are planning to do a sequel sometime in the future although its not likely.
BTW. I thought CLOVERFIELD was its sequel. I was wrong, and that movie did SUCKED.
