Ratings and reviews

This is a direct sequel to Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla and shares its predecessor's more serious tone. Very refreshing after the goofy, kid friendly persona Godzilla had adopted through most of the 70s. This film would be the last of the original series, with The King Of Monsters taking an extended vacation that lasted until 1985.

I'm a fan of all eras of Godzilla, but this one is pretty bad in the great scheme of things. And that's coming from someone who wants a little cheese in their kaiju movies.

While I'm not as much of a fan of the 70s Godzilla films, this is a good movie. The story is abit odd and the plot with Titanosauraus kind of just...ends, but overall I did enjoy the darker overtone.
