You don't see a Godzilla movie for the human characters. 1 / 8

Nevertheless, Dr. Emma Russell makes for an extremely annoying character. 2 / 8

Her son was killed in Godzilla's 2014 rampage, so you'd think she'd protect her daughter.. 3 / 8

Yet she takes her daughter to work with her at dangerous monster-holding facilities. 4 / 8

If Emma's a genius and "dedicated mother," why such reckless child endangerment? 5 / 8

When her ex-husband calls this out, she says their kid is "trained," whatever that means. 6 / 8

We wish they'd shown the "training," making Emma a more interesting Sarah Connor-esque character. 7 / 8

As is, the mother-daughter relationship is not the least bit believable. 8 / 8
