I agree that the first one was rushed. I think the introduction of Mechagodzilla as the actual villain so late in the movie detracted from the enjoyment of the story. But I think they did a better job about that this time around.

They introduce the new villain about halfway through the movie, then spend the time having Kong and Godzilla prepare for the fight. Then the final fight is the standard 10-20 minutes. That timing feels more standard to me, which I liked.

Also I just bought the blurays for both the Godzilla movies yesterday! I'm so excited to add them to my collection.

It is definitely a fun two parter!
