The filmmakers took the biggest complaint fans had of the first movie and ignored it completely.

I liked the cast. There were some lines of dialog that were trying too hard but I didn't think any of them were stupid or annoying.

And I think that the BIGGEST complaint of the first movie was that there was not enough Godzilla. And that was remedied majestically in this movie.

What movie did you watch?
There are some close up shots but the monster fights were brilliant.
Did you not see the tail swipe? That whole sequence was pulled off fantastically with great composition and camera work.

I'm sorry but to say the camera is "constantly 3 feet" from the monsters is just false.

I have no counterpoint for this one.
