did everything I needed a Godzilla movie to do

This is kind of baffling, if I'm being honest. What exactly is your baseline for what a Godzilla movie "needs to do"?

That being said, I agree that it gets a bit more hate than it probably deserve...but not by much. There are a couple fun sequences, I particularly always liked the Madison Square Garden ~~raptor~~ baby Zilla bit, even if it has no business being in a Godzilla movie.

That's really what it comes down to. It's a passible Roland Emmerich popcorn flick at best, but it's a terrible Godzilla movie.

In my opinion, the best Godzilla movie was Shin Godzilla (I've heard Godzilla Minus One is GOAT but I haven't seen it yet).

What made Godzilla interesting was the subtext.

Godzilla outside of Japan doesn't make a lot of sense. Godzilla is explicitly a walking nuclear bomb.

In Shin Godzilla, Godzilla is defeated by a competent government, a fantasy we can all enjoy.
