Gaaaaaaaargh! The guy in the rubber suit is back with a vengeance. Godzilla's back in the nurturing hands of Toho Studios, and they've beefed up the big beast with more highly developed spinal fins, resembling large crystals, and more menacing teeth. But he's the same guy in the rubber suit who smashes Tokyo's buildings and cars and dukes it out in larger-than-life smackdowns with the universe's monstrous villains. The plot is familiar to anyone who was a 12-year-old boy: Godzilla erupts from the sea for reasons that are never made clear, proceeds to wreak havoc amongst the buildings of a model city, and meets and beats a monster his own size, thus saving humanity. His nemesis this time around is a 600-foot-long rock that scientists find at the bottom of the ocean and unwisely bring to the surface, where it proves to be an alien spacecraft bent on acquiring Godzilla's regenerative abilities. "A visitor from outer space?" exclaims one of the scientists, "My god, it's just too crazy to believe!" To which the lead scientist responds, "Right, like Godzilla's normal. Anyway, it's my theory that..."

Very good movie with CGI that is actually tolerable

First off, the briefly-used CGI in this movie, unlike 99.99999% of CGI, is actually tolerable. It still causes Godzilla to look more like one of those 'Pokemon' creatures on the Nintendo 64's 'Pokemon Stadium' game, but its better than the CGI of almost every other movie that uses CGI, because the CGI in those movies looks like it was lifted from the original Playstation, or, occassionally, something even lower than that.

Another redeeming factor of the CGI is that, even though they used the crapness that is CGI, they didn't use it very often. This movie would have been crap is Godzilla was CGI for more than the 10-15 seconds the CGI Godzilla was shown.

The G-suit used in this timeline's movies has a neck that is as thick as G's torso. Essentially, it looks as if the shoulders are lower down.

This gets five stars because its the second Godzilla movie that I haven't disliked any part of. Normally, apart from Godzilla movies that Rodan is already in, I would say it would be better if Rodan was in it, but actually Rodan being in this movie would be very random.

There is a scientific organisation that want to study Godzilla. Giving them competition is a more military-based organisation that wants to kill Godzilla. Finally, an alien ship appeared and ended up launching a giant monster known as Orga, which had mutated due to the stolen DNA of Godzilla.

Really Good!!

This was a nice return to "classic Godzilla" after the American version was made. The story is about aliens trying to take over the world and Godzilla is the only thing keeping them from world domination. Yeah, this idea has been used more than enough times in the Godzilla series, but it doesn't hurt this movie at all. In the movie, you never actually see the aliens but you do get to see the monster they unleash on Tokyo called Orga. It's a nasty looking lizard creature that is really cool. The special effects are beyond compare when it comes to Godzilla movies. A lot of computer special fx were used in this movie. The UFO and Orga for the most part was all computer generated. Godzilla wasn't because all the fans like it better that way. Godzilla went back to being a bad guy in this movie, which is the way it should be, Gamera can take care of being the good monster of Japan, let Godzilla be bad! Overall really good, all fans will love this movie, and it will make a lot of new fans also!

GODZILLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Possibly the best Godzilla film of all time. Great acting. Great monster battles. The only thing that isn't great about this film are the curse words. They shouldn't have curse words in movies.
Anyway, THIS IS A GREAT FILM! I ABSOLUTELY TREASURE IT! It isn't perfect, of course, but it is a LOT better than that dumb american godzilla film!
WATCH THIS FILM! IT'S WORTHIT!

My rating: ******/***** 6/5
