starring godzilla, rodan and mothra, now reduced to a giant caterpillar, versus the triple headed fire breathing monster ghidorah. the effects here are pretty funny and the plot is kinda bizarre, with an amnesiac princess turned apocalyptic prophet, tiny twin fairies and even government assassins. it's all worth it for the crazy climactic fight scene. much fun!!

a powerful film but... were those scenes from the holocaust and other war-torn regions in the opening really necessary? that felt exploitative to me. and it's ¿quién puede matar a un niño?

such a beautiful film that i don't know where to begin. maybe with the music, the use of which is extraordinary throughout. a simple tale told touchingly well and without overt sentimentality. olmi is a miraculous director
