After reading the reviews I just had to see this movie to see if it was as bad as so many stated. Turns out it was decent and deserved a watch. Makes me wonder just how many decent movies I've missed because I relied on the reviews of others who apparently expect each movie they review to be an Oscar winner or it isn't worth watching. Needless to say, I will be considering a lot more movies in the future and relying less on the reviews. I also wonder if the people giving bad reviews have some sort of agenda? I would hate to think so but nowadays just about anything is possible. Anyway, enjoy the movie and if not, consider your expectations maybe need adjustment.

The actors were good and it was nice seeing Kurt Russell but the main star of the movie was missing... Godzilla. At least, Godzilla should have been the main star but except for about 30 seconds in the last episode Godzilla was MIA. It's never a good sign when you find yourself yawning during a movie. If the actors had been subpar I would have rated this series a one star. It looks like there is the possibility for a second season. If it follows along the same lines as the first season my recommendation is... don't bother. I certainly won't be watching a second season unless they can assure me it will be a monster series and not a drama. It could have been so much better.

And, I do mean LONG. I like a good fight scene but this was too much. Also, there were many instances that were simply unbelievable. If John is supposed to be a fantasy creature who can survive that which would kill any other human then so be it but I thought he was supposed to be human. I rated this movie three stars because of the quality actors and I like it when they don't put something together cheaply. So, if you can disregard all the improbability and just enjoy constant fighting you'll probably enjoy this movie. I prefer more substance and I don't play video games so there you have it.
