I get it. People suck. We're killing the planet. But when you give a humanity's the infection, they are the cure speech... you need to really sell it in a way that doesn't make your eyes roll hard. (See Agent Smith in the Matrix)
And that reveal is kind of big part of the plot. The movie started out interesting with this senate hearing and this potential story of what do we do when people want to take control and dovetails into this weird be nicer to the planet I dunno feels cheap and heavy handed.
Things I did like? 1. Beautiful monster fights. Genuinely scary and even if you couldn't see the blood and guts you could feel how small we are in comparison to the monsters. 2. Sound and light design was gorgeous 3. Love Kyle chandler and Bradley Whithford. 4. That Godzilla main theme, equally cheesy and epic 5. Despite the plot issues I kinda want to know more about this world. And if you always want to know more about the world then I think the filmmakers did something right.
