While not perfect, I thought the CGI was pretty good. Even if the CGI was garbage, I still think the movie would be good, because the characters, writing, acting, and messaging are all good.
I'm also absolutely willing to forgive a bit of jank for 10mil budget (particularly for a big monster film which is much harder to do well on low budget), it easily looks better than some 100m films
I'd rather watch a 12 million dollar movie with okay CGI and a good story/characters, than a 200 million dollar dollar movie with slightly-better-but-still-painfully-obvious-green-screen CGI with insufferable story/characters.

If "man with guitar" warrants a $70 million budget these days, $10 million for Godzilla is a shoestring budget.
The funny thing is the other Godzilla movie, Godzilla x King Kong had good CGI and used LESS money than the other movies that debuted that week lmao
