Ripley: They cut the power.
Hudson: What do you mean, "*They* cut the power"? How could they cut the power, man? They're animals!

The only way to enjoy this is to have your mind erased of the last 40 years of movies. Then it'll appear fresh and original and awesome. Rather than just checking off the clichés.
Maybe one day there'll be a drug that knocks out your hippocampus, so every movie will be like Star Wars / LOTR for the first time.

I'm waiting for someone to defend Transformers, Adam Sandler, M. Night Shyamalan, Damon Lindelof, Episode 1, and the Wayans.

C'mon - which bozo is gonna say they're underrated?

11 hours later, you still don't actually see the Lord of the Rings.

I only had two minor problems with it...

1. I couldn't see the kaiju and jaeger fighting because it was (a) too dark (b) too wet (c) edited too fast (d) camera too unstable and (e) zoomed in too close
2. Even if you could see the fisticuffs, the fight sequences were too short, resulting in the rest of the movie playing like a glossy Asylum straight-to-video job with D-list actors and 10 clichés-per-minute screenplay.

I wanted giant monsters versus kickass robots in a Matrix Burly-Brawl punch-up trashing Manhattan.
