Yeah… I thought that the trailer looked kind of formulaic. Maybe what people find refreshing is just decent actors and contemporary production values? Grafting valid sciencey talk onto something that is still essentially a monster rampage movie sounds like a slight improvement over characters doing and saying stupid things. But then it might focus more criticism upon basic plot and motivational problems. “If the people and/or monster were really smart, why would they be doing X in the first place?”
It looks like it might be entertaining enough, but maybe not sufficiently interesting for me to make the effort to see it.
