It has razor sharp teeth in a gargantuan mouth; claws that can cut through steel; a roar that echoes back through the centuries; dorsal fins that resemble crimson lightning bolts; and fiery breath that incinerates everything it comes into contact with. Soon, all in the creature's wake is utterly destroyed, and a terrified Japan can only wonder where this monstrous beast will next appear. Godzilla, king of the monsters, is back.

Kimberley Jones Austin Chronicle Rated: 2/5 Jul 25, 2004 Full Review Globe and Mail Rated: 2/4 Mar 19, 2002 Full Review Entertainment Weekly Rated: B Aug 18, 2000 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand The final third is a giant monster version of a WWE match between the Big G and the alien upstart, with the pug ugly alien mutating on the move. Jan 5, 2018 Full Review Brian Gibson Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Alberta) After all the humans' blathering about studying him or killing him or why's-he-keep-saving-us-after-we-created-him-but-now-try-to-destroy-him?, the big scaly brute's got the best idea for taking the piss out of this movie--keep roaring unintelligibly.

Raymond The Godzilla Fan R Great Godzilla design, great acton, great story. what more could I ask for Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/06/24 Full Review Justin T I was really disappointed with this film, I was expecting so much more so my review will be especially harsh. The film starts with a great opening that is tainted by the fact that there is literally no explanation for the existence of Godzilla. If this is a sequel then how did he come back to life after the last film? If this is a re-sequel then same question. If this is a reboot then what is Godzilla’s backstory, he just appears and everyone already knows about him. Frustrating. Godzilla’s design is awesome but like most Toho movies there is no sense of scale to him. The serious tone is fine. The ambitious effects though are pretty terrible. It looks much worse than all the films from the previous era. The effects are worse than any of The Asylum movies, worse than anything from the eighties. Some of the effects look cool but these are the traditional monster suits smashing cities. The UFO looks especially bad whenever it appears. It is a huge step down in quality compared to the flawed American movie Godzilla (1998). The film is actually quite boring, there is a lot of operatic standing around looking at nothing happening, without removing any content they could easily have taken 15 minutes of waiting out of the film. I was disappointed that we didn’t see the Millennium aliens. I didn’t like how easily Orga was defeated although Orga was a really cool kaiju. Overall very disappointing and not a good entry. Correction: you do see the alien briefly as it gets pooped out of the alien ship, it took Google to find that out. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/03/24 Full Review josh d But of a letdown if I’m being honest. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/09/24 Full Review Taylor W My first real Godzilla film in theaters Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/15/24 Full Review Chanr3y k This movie is probably the most average Godzilla movie, everything about it is perfectly fine and average. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/15/24 Full Review Melanie T I did not like it… I loved it. It is just another one of my favorite movies, literally any movie (besides 1998 Goji) in the Gojira series. If you haven't seen Final Wars, watch it, then GvGigan, the GvMegalon. My only complaint is, ORGA TRIED TO EAT GOJIRA!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/07/24 Full Review Read all reviews
