It was decent. At one point in the movie my review would have been, "It's Jaws, except Godzilla."
It felt like a very classic Godzilla movie.
Cinematography: A. It's pretty, a lot of times.
CGI: A to D, depending on scene.
Story: B+. Good, but drags a bit at times.

Exactly. This felt like the Godzilla movies we grew up with, but done way better.
The story was well told and made you root for the characters. I also feel like there was a very solid message made about the sacrifices of men in society. Maybe even a subtle anti-suicide message, particularly for veterans? It did drag a bit and the ending got cheesy, but forgivable.
Godzilla was amped up something fierce. That heat ray was unlike anything we've seen before. They also addressed his invulnerability in a new way that will remind you of other big name fictional characters.
Noriko in the business outfit was yum a dum dum.
And yeah, the CGI varied from "Is this fucking real?" to "Fire your CGI guys." Thankfully, there was more of A than B.
Loved the film and I think it deserves more praise. Even my 14 year old daughter loved it. The story is a big fuck you to the standard Hollywood crap writing, but the action was nowhere near what we produce.
There is one pretty large flaw late in the film that I haven't heard anyone mention yet.
Well worth seeing in a theater.

Oh yeah, I did notice that. Pacific Rim had the same "characteristic."
