Ilyas Z @Zellai Jan 25 You Know, For a Mothra Movie The Movie is Actually Pretty Great! I Really Liked Mothra Leo. He's a Likeable Character. And I Really Liked His Mother. BUT, The One Who Really Stole The Show Was Desghidorah. This Movie is Great So 8/10 See more Conor S @RT72157041 May 20 It’s a fun movie, I liked the storyline, and Desghidorah. See more Justin T @RT08580778 07/19/2024 This is a very engaging but not classically ‘good’ film. It is very much a production of the nineties. It reminded me of all those eighties fantasy adventures like The NeverEnding Story (1984). It is really fast paced with lots happening so it's never boring. I didn’t like the roar of the new monster, it sounded too much like an elephant trumpet. The cheesy effects, the crazy story, the silly characters and the kaiju all come together to make an undoubtedly entertaining film lacking depth.

Rebirth of Mothra lacks the storytelling the elements of her son Leo, Mothra Leo See more Eric E @RT96285402 09/17/2023 I was not expecting this... disappointment. I recently watched the original Mothra (1961). i don't know why I was assuming this version would be some kind of updated remake. Well it is not. Rebirth is very much aimed at the family/youth audience. If anything, it reminds me in tone of All Monsters Attack (1969), already one of my least favorite Godzilla movies of all time. I really can't stand the children (or boy) in this. On the plus side, the visuals and SFX are decent for the era considering the budget. I don't really have an issue with this aspect. Reminds me of the 90s theatrical Might Morphin Power Rangers movies. And the effects are reminiscent of Masters of the Universe (live-action) and Willow, but better. Not better than the original Honey I Shrunk the Kids though. Also nice that the original fairy twins Mothra song remains intact with little alteration. I guess I'm giving the film a bonus half star for the song and SFX. One last criticism. While I'm never expecting Shakespeare level writing for any Godzilla/Kaiju film, the plot here is paper thin and could be sketched out on a cocktail napkin. More of a long effects reel or proof of concept than anything else. Now I have a fear of the sequels, but could they possibly be worse than this opening entry??
