Pieter-Jan Van Haecke Psychocinematography 07/13/2023
By echoing the atomic fears within the post-war society, Sekizawa avoids Ebirah merely being a reworked copy of his previous narratives. Go to Full Review Bob Chipman Escapist Magazine 05/22/2019
A lot of people put this one on the low-end of the series, but I have fun with it. Go to Full Review Witney Seibold Nerdist 05/21/2019
Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster is... not so great. It feels small and trifling and, well, a bit dumb. Go to Full Review Tina Hassannia Not Coming to a Theater Near You 05/14/2019
Exemplifies the peak of the Godzilla franchise's tonal shift into campy, fun territory, a phenomenon that reflected the series' absorption of 1960s Western pop-culture influences. Go to Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy 12/10/2013
5/10
A decent film at best, a flimsy and uninvolving film at worst, and a discouraging sign that the days of Godzilla as a serious, interesting threat were now officially dead and buried. Go to Full Review Steve Biodrowski Cinefantastique 04/11/2009
This is one of the silliest but also one of the more amusing Godzilla movies. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Conor T @RT72920782 Jun 9 The human plot is good, and the red bamboo is underrated. But Godzilla doesn’t appear until an hour in, Godzilla also doesn’t get a lot of screen time, Mothra’s filler, Ebirah’s an underwhelming villain, the fights suck, and Godzilla falls in love with a girl which was gladly never a thing again. It’s not the worst Godzilla film tho. See more Mikendrick G @GodzillaFOREVER May 8 Giant crab monster fighting Godzilla. Wouldn't have expected more See more Manda R. @oatmeal Feb 15 The rock volleyball? Cheering for Godzilla finally? Hawaii 5-0 styled music? I actually kinda loved this one and Ebirah is really cool. See more Vincent W. @Gojirilla5419 Jan 29 It’s fine, but it REEKS of the fact that it supposed to be a Kong film. See more Ilyas Z @Zellai Jan 4 One Of The Worst Godzilla Movies And Would Work Out Way More For King Kong. However This Movie Still Has Some UPS. Overall: 3/10 See more Conor S @RT72157041 Dec 21 Easily a top 2 worst Godzilla movie. Ebirah, Mothra, and Godzilla are all lame along with the story. See more Read all reviews
