This one and the one with Cate Blanchett are great.
Vera is one of the reasons I will check out Godzilla: King of Monsters someday..
I was pleasantly surprised to see Juliette Binoche in the first Godzilla. I suppose the difficulty with these films, like Transformers, is making the human characters interesting enough. I haven't seen either film fully so I don't know if that's the case. Love Godzilla though. They had seasons of the films here in the UK when I was young so I'm familiar with all the classic monsters.
