Godzilla, Mothra And King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack - 3 1/2 stars

This film definitely has one of the longest I have ever seen so I’ll just stick to calling it “Giant Monsters All-Out Attack”. This is one of the better “Godzilla” movies out there and it’s also interesting to note that this is one of the few ones where Godzilla himself is a bad guy.

Ignoring all the previous films except for the original, “Giant Monsters All-Out Attack” sees Godzilla return to terrorise Tokyo. Despite the best efforts of the Japanese military, the only thing that can stop him is the combined force of three ancient guardians monsters: Baragon, Mothra and King Ghidorah.

Most of the human characters are not terribly interesting but most of them are not too bad. The scenes with the various military figures are moderately enjoyable. The main attractions are of course the monsters and we get four here. I find it funny that Baragon is in this movie but they left him out of the title. All the monsters, Godzilla in particular, look very good and it is so incredibly satisfying watching them tear up Tokyo in their epic battle. It maybe takes a little too long for the monsters to appear but once they do, it becomes an exciting movie.

The “Godzilla” movies are not high art by any stretch of the imagination but I think they can be really fun and this is one of the most competently made ones out of all of them. If you are not a fan of giant monster films then I doubt you will care for this one but if you can enjoy these films for what they are, I think this is one worth checking out. Like a lot of these movies, it starts off a little slow but by the end, I think you will be quite entertained.
