Harry Kachadurian This is by far the worst Godzilla movie since 1975, yes worse then G-98. All of the characters are terrible except for Captain Gordon. The plot is a mess of pointlessly short monster fights and bad facial expressions. All of the "location" shots are terribly lit and poorly executed. The lighting is WAY to overexposed and the sound editing is dreadfully inconsistent. the Godzilla suit itself is a joke it looks like the Showa Godzilla took a sh*t. the monster action is bad and so obviously rushed that it takes you out of the movie. for a movie with a 19 million dollar budget this movie is a gigantic failure and personally GMK, Godzilla Tokyo SOS and Godzilla 2000 could have all been a better ending to the series, Tokyo SOS especially. The Music in this movie is so laughably bad and poorly executed that it takes away from the sometimes awesome effects scenes. The CGI is absolutely TERRIBLE for 2004. This movie had a ton of promise and I actually enjoyed it when I was a kid, but having just re-watched this movie i'm so disappointed.

jacobjohntaylor1 The beast Godzilla movie is the first remake from 1998. You may not agree and that is o.k. But if you are mad about hearing the truth go up fart heads. This is part 28 to the Japan Godzilla series. It is also the 7th R.o.d.a.n movie. It is also the 14th M.o.t.h.r.a movie. It is not as good as the original R.o.d.a.n. The 16th Godzilla movie Return of Godzilla or Godzilla 1985 is also better. Part 24 to the Japan Godzilla series is Godzilla vs M.e.g.a.g.u.i.r.u.s is also better. The 12th M.o.t.h.r.a movie that would also be part 25 to the Japan Godzilla series Godzilla M.o.t.h.r.a and King G.h.i.d.o.r.a.h giant monsters on an all out attack is also better. But still this is a great movie. All the M.o.t..h.r.a movie are good. All the R.o.d.a.n movie are good. A most of the Godzilla movies are pretty good. See this movie. It's scary. See all the M.o.t.h.t.r.a movies there so cool.

George Taylor This is one of the worst Godzilla movies ever made. I cannot believe that Toho just ripped off their own history to make this travesty. The story, cribbing from better movies like Invasion of the Astro-Monsters, Destroy All Monsters and Atragon, is simplistic and silly. Godzilla as well as the SFX are below par compared to the 90's films. Godzilla looks silly, the Xillians should be called Sillyuns and the story is just terrible. Using the lame US version of Godzilla gave me a laugh, but the Godzilla from Destroyah would have kicked everyone's rears. Final complaint: Why oh why bring back the terrible looking Minilla from Son of Godzilla? A terrible idea that nearly undoes all the great Godzilla's from the 90's. Pass on this terrible insult to Godzilla.

Al_The_Strange Godzilla might be the one character on film with the longest history. It's just like James Bond: it never really dies or ends, it just keeps coming back decade after decade in some new hip style.After twenty-plus Godzilla films, Final Wars presents the last foray in the classic series into the crazy world of rampaging monsters toppling cities (in the same fashion as Die Another Day was the last Bond film of the initial series that went crazy with the gadgets and evil megalomaniacs and such). If nothing else, Final Wars goes all-out in shoving in as much epic action, as many monsters, and as much glorious cheese as it can! And it does so with flash and style! Really, the film is utterly stupid and laughable. The acting is very cheesy (especially when watching it with English dubbing), the action is very over-the-top, the monsters still look fake as hell, and the production overall is as cheap as they come. The film also has a ton of scenes where they tried their best to be modern and cool; you can expect to meet a squad of dudes who twirl around with guns, as if they came from Equilibrium. And, there are car chases and fight scenes galore. Of course, the main highlight is the mass carnage caused by the monsters, and the film doesn't disappoint on that level: in addition to Godzilla, there are also flying bugs, rampaging lizards, and aliens destroying practically every city in the world. A whole gang of monsters from the older films return, including Mothra, Gigan, Rodan, Ghidorah, Ebirah, and so many more! They've even thrown in Zilla, from the much-hated '98 US film in the mix! Godzilla's son appears in all his stupid glory! Oh yeah, it doesn't get much bigger than this! The story's pretty silly, the characters are pretty flat, but what really matters it that it's basically the end-all-be-all war of monsters. The first half of the film sets things up fine and dandy, before all heck breaks lose in the last half. Nothing terribly deep, but it's cool all the same.This film is quite cheesy. It does have fine and dandy photography. Editing can be pretty hectic and erratic (especially during the opening credits scene, which includes some cool clips from the last 20-something movies). Acting and writing are pretty bad. This production has some very cheap-looking sets, props, and costumes. Music is pretty cool.This is the type of kaiju film I find myself enjoying more and more: it's the type that doesn't take itself seriously, and knows how to have a good time. The film moves fast, has loads of action, and has a pretty generous helping of cheese. If you don't mind that kind of thing, then this movie should be a must-see! 4/5 (Entertainment: Perfect | Story: Average | Film: Average)
