Good Qualities

 * 1) Amazing special effects.
 * 2) This movie features the return of one of the most well-known and fan-favorite characters in the Godzilla franchise, Mechagodzilla.
 * 3) Great acting.
 * 4) The version of Mechagodzilla in this movie is often considered having the best design in the entire series. It strikes a nice balance between the intimidating look of the classic Mechagodzilla and the sleek finish of the second Mechagodzilla.
 * 5) Excellent soundtrack.
 * 6) This movie has some of the best action scenes in the entire franchise, despite the fact that there's only two monsters in the movie.
 * 7) Nice plot.
 * 8) Good pacing.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Despite how good this movie is, it still leaves you wanting a little bit more. It seems like they spent a lot of time setting up the story, as interesting as it was, reinventing Mechagodzilla for the third time, and concentrating on the human's efforts to get Mechagodzilla working.
 * 2) Lots of people were disappointed that this movie, once again, is another reboot, ignoring every Godzilla movie that came before it besides the first.
