The movie that proved that even extinction wasn't enough to stop the King of the Monsters.

There's a little too much time spent riffing on Aliens and Starship Troopers, but the finale is haunting and even poetic as these things go.

Film Threat

[It] may be the most action packed film in the whole series. It begins with the king ripping through Hong Kong and does not stop for a breath until the credits roll.

Rated: 3.5/5

Godzilla vs Destoroyah closes the Heisei era with a dark and emotional finale. Godzilla, whose nuclear heart is in meltdown, faces Destoroyah, a monster born from the mutated Oxygen Destroyer of 1954. Linking back to the original film through Dr. Yamane’s grandson, the story combines tragedy, rage, and sorrow, culminating in a haunting climax. With Kazuki Omori’s script paying heartfelt tribute to the franchise, the film became the biggest Japanese hit of 1995 and is still remembered as one of the finest Godzilla entries—a perfect swan song for the King of the Monsters.

Es personalmente mi película de Godzilla favorita y posiblemente la de muchos otros entusiastas. Es el cariño depositado en los personajes que lastima aún y cuando la repites varias veces, ofrece una experiencia similar a películas actuales de alto rendimiento como Avengers endgame. Es atrevida y dolorosa de ver, es absolutamente impresionante esta película, posee grandes y geniales efectos especiales que para la época eran (y son) aún mejor! De lo que cualquier simple espectador pudiera imaginar, sin contar sus diseños increíbles. sabe terminar su saga de manera adecuada y perfecta, respetando el legado de sus personajes, entregando una historia memorable y momentos de crisis que sientes verdaderamente.
