>>23391434 (OP)Shin Ultra > Shin Godzilla > Shin Kamen Rider >>>> Shin Evangelion
Shin Godzilla might be a better movie, but I think I just like Ultraman more. Also had a good balance between referencing the original series and original elements.
Shin Kamen Rider really messed up the start of the movie by rushing the origin. It pretty much assumes audiences are already into Kamen Rider, which is a big mistake, IMO. It's also odd how close it stays to the original in some aspects, but then goes to completely Anno created plot points various core parts of the movie, like Japanese secret service Taki and Tachibana with no real ties to Hongo rather than trying anything close to their original characters.
Even direction-wise it just from rough practical effects or CGI mimicking the original to just complete CGI like the "Dragonball" style air battle between Rider 1 and 2.
Shin Eva was initially a flashier but emptier version of the original series, then it becamme just a directionless mess when going on its own path. Still had some good moments, in the 4th movie, but I feel like the messages it pushed often clashed with themselves.
