The giant scaly lizard surfaces and melts (with his flamethrower breath) a U.S. submarine. Enter an old Japanese mystic who summons the sacred beasts of Yamato -- King Ghidorah, Mothra and Baragon -- monsters that protected Japan in ancient times. The stage is now set for the ultimate smackdown.
It is for desperate fans only and is pretty bad even by the loose standards of the genre. It concerns a little boy learning about bravery by dreaming about Godzilla and Godzilla's baby. Godzilla's baby also talks to the boy, who then foils the plans of tw
Godzilla is a horrible little bastard in this movie. He is truly badass. For once, he has no redemption, to the point that previous alien controlled villains are now guardians of the earth. This film grabs the human element by taking a father and daughter as an army captain and a TV reporter. The effects here are just
fantastic. All the puppets, suits, CGI looks great, and we get more Godzilla/Human interaction than ever. I loved the shot where Godzilla arrives and throws a boat into the air, only for it to fall straight down onto the camera again. We get some exceptional long takes of cityscapes. It's fascinating to see so many monsters beat each other in what looks like a real city. These Godzilla movies also have the confidence to just let it play out rather than making me sick with constant edits. With a subtitle of Giant Monsters All Out Attack, you know this is gonna be good. Just a shame that Mothra and Ghidorah were slightly out of character.
The first film since Godzilla vs Mothra to portray Godzilla as truly evil. Directed by Shusuke Kaneko, the man who revitalized the giant-turtle-monster Gamera series in the '90s, and reminds the audience what Godzilla is....a monster.Completely negating every single G-movie after the original 1954 version, the big guy
is met with "guardian monsters" who are to protect the earth. Growing up watching Godzilla films at the drive-in and cheering along with other kids who were hanging out by the loudspeaker near the concession stand, I was glad to see him return in this film as pissed off as I've ever seen him. White on white eyes and an evil grin looking better than ever before. He's so bad, they've even made King Ghidorah a good guy. Keep an eye out for the Motsura twins who are on screen for only a few seconds.
