Sometimes it just feels like a typical '60s kaiju film done in the '90s. Done very well, I'll give you that, but I feel like I've already seen everything before in Frankenstein vs. Baragon, Mothra, King Kong vs. Godzilla, etc. I prefer the second and third movies in the trilogy for more originality.
Characters - It was nice seeing a female lead, but it still had your typical comedic sidekick and grumpy figure of authority who wants the good monster dead.
Monsters - Gamera and Gyaos had many appearances before this.
Music - Well duh. Of course a movie's going to have an original score. That wasn't even one of my points of complaint.
The movie is clearly meant to be a tribute to kaiju movies of the '60s because Kaneko and staff were fans. My problem is that it goes just a little too far with that.
Characters - a lot more fleshed out
Monsters - so a movie isn't original because it had characters from previous movies?
Music - I didn't know what your points of complaint were. You said I would have liked the movie better if it was more original. I gave you examples of originality.
