While I have yet to see the film, like many here, based on the trailers and Jelly's statement, I can't help but wonder, what's the deal with every western Godzilla movie taking place in the rain/dark? It can't be because of the old "to hide the flaws in the effects" excuse. Skull Island and Dragon Wars(and others)have proved that full on daylight scenes are indeed possible and can look great. What's especially baffling was that this was one of the big complaints with GINO... and yet, here we are, still facing the same old, same old. As to the early reviews, if this is indeed worse than G14, that's a sad statement indeed. While Edwards Godzilla did have some very pretty effects, take those out of the equation, and you've got a pretty bad film. Not much better than GINO, in my opinion. The gaps in logic, the lackluster acting. Poor to terrible direction, this was anything but a good film. And to say KotM is worse? I'll just say, I'll be going in with VERY low expectations
