This film was supposed to be like, the new beginning for the Godzilla series. Don't get me wrong, it's not that bad of a film, but it wasn't really that impressive to me either. I gotta admit, the UFO, the organics and the overall transformation of Godzilla's foe in this film is pretty interesting. It's something I haven't seen in any Kaiju movie, nor have I seen it in any more recent films. The effects are good, the monster designs are good, but otherwise it just wasn't anything that really stood out for me. Maybe I'm just old fashioned because I prefer the older Godzilla films, but hey, beggers can't be choosers.

We get a guy in a suit, looking better than ever. The film also brings us some CGI, with a wonderfully dodgy looking spaceship. I praise this film for not holding back on its imagination. I wish people would stay away from the American dubs. I've never seen one, and I've enjoyed the series thoroughly. This film had everything I'd come to expect, but seemed scared of being too outlandish. Hiroshi Abe also ruined a lot of the movie by having ONE look. Was it fear? Was it determination? Was it confusion? I'll never know.

Now that I'm older I have got to admit the fact that this is a pretty damn cheesy movie. First lets talk about the effects. First of all, there pretty good and are in fact one of the main redeeming factors of this movie. Okay well except for the CGI parts which do look awful. But other than that there pretty good. Now lets talk about the plot. I do hate saying this but is is flat out dreadful. By far the worst part of the movie. But surprisingly it's actually so bad that it's actually kinda good. Now let mention the acting it's.......OK. I mean, What do you really expect?

Why would you make this kind of movie and who would watch it? The old Godzilla movies were at least funny in their cheapness but I couldn't even laugh at this one and that's pretty bad. I would rather watch the bible channel than this crap that's just terrifying. If you took a handful of nails and scratched them repeatedly up and down a chalkboard you could have more fun than if you watched this foreign trash. In other words, do not support the creators of this 'movie', if you could call it that, by spending money on it.
