Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack Audience Reviews

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
SnakesOnAnAfricanPlain Godzilla is a horrible little bastard in this movie. He is truly badass. For once, he has no redemption, to the point that previous alien controlled villains are now guardians of the earth. This film grabs the human element by taking a father and daughter as an army captain and a TV reporter. The effects here are just fantastic. All the puppets, suits, CGI looks great, and we get more Godzilla/Human interaction than ever. I loved the shot where Godzilla arrives and throws a boat into the air, only for it to fall straight down onto the camera again. We get some exceptional long takes of cityscapes. It's fascinating to see so many monsters beat each other in what looks like a real city. These Godzilla movies also have the confidence to just let it play out rather than making me sick with constant edits. With a subtitle of Giant Monsters All Out Attack, you know this is gonna be good. Just a shame that Mothra and Ghidorah were slightly out of character.
kevinxirau This film is now ten years old and it still retains its popularity. For this edition of its greatest movie series, Toho decided to take chances and do something quite different for the King of the Monsters and that chance basically paid off. The result was GMK.Plot: After about fifty years since Godzilla's rampage, a Japan where some have either forgotten or don't believe in the monster began having a series of mysterious events. A mystic old man warns that Godzilla, resurrected and possessed by souls lost during WW2, will once again go on a rampage, so he awakens the so-called Guardian Monsters: Baragon, Mothra, and King Ghidorah to combat the dinosaur.An interesting story, epic action scenes, and wonderful music are what keep this film going. However, some of the decisions made for this movie are my biggest problem. I didn't like how Anguirus and Varan, who were absent from a movie for SO long, got replaced by Ghidorah and Mothra, in the process making Ghidorah a good guy! What?! Mechagodzilla is one thing but Ghidorah?! The guardian monsters are smaller and weaker too (ex. Baragon doesn't have his fire breath in this movie!).Despite this, GMK is still a worthy addition to the series and worth a watch.
destoroyah98886 SPOILERS!!! This Godzilla is better than any of the other Godzillas! For instance, the fact that he was biggest monster in the movie, and the way he attacked with extreme prejudice,unlike the other Godzillas, when the military attacked him, he made sure he obliterated them, not just the usual breath of fire, then move on to fight his opponent, he even proceeded to destroy the military battleships! man was he determined!! Also the way he dispatched the other monsters, This Godzilla is one of my all time favorites, along with Radioactive Godzilla:"Godzilla vs Destroyer". I recommend this movie any day over "Final Wars" seriously!
jimsamx Finally!!! Toho Studios redeemed themselves for all the cheesy and low budget Godzilla films they have made (and for the not-so-good, Godzilla 2000 film)! Godzilla, thanks to director Kaneko, returns to his original roots as mankind's greatest nightmare, following the events of the original movie and discarding all the others.I hope Godzilla fans will forgive my comment (I 'm also a Godzilla fan) but it was about time that a movie which we can be proud of is finally here! What is really amazing is that it's plot is actually very well-written, with some amazingly clever twists (the way they finally destroy Godzilla is probably one of the greatest ideas in a Kaiju film!) the story actually makes sense, the actors (even the...extras) are amazingly... amazing in their roles, they are characters that you can care for them.In this movie we don't see neither silly kids, no aliens, no crazy scientists or anything else that was - unfortunately - the cheesy formula for many years in Godzilla Films. The directing is superb with some shots never before seen in such a film.Need to say anything about the music? Just think that I don't really like electronic music and I LOVED the soundtrack which is full of that kind of music! Of course there is also some orchestrated pieces, from the great Akira Ifukube (R.I.P 1914 - 2006) in the right places.And now... for the parts that made some of the fans "hate" the movie.OK, Godzilla is REALLY different in this movie, he is portrayed totally unsympathetic... a psychotic killing machine with a twisted soul... and that's what he really is! I never liked the happy - campy Godzilla who finishes his opponents with karate chops, or the "poor nuclear victim of radiation" scenario. The victims are ourselves and Godzilla is our punishment.Another thing is King Ghidorah. I really didn't know how to feel about the ultimate villain in the series to become one of earth's guardians but once you see the whole movie and how the story progresses and deals with this matter you will probably forget all previous Ghidorahs and pray for him to finally kill that bastard Godzilla.Yeap. That's how you're gonna feel about Godzilla in this movie. You will truly want him to finally die!There are so many more things I can say about it but I don't want to spoil too much because it's better to go see it and discover the magic of this movie. You will collect your jaw from the floor once the end credits roll.Sometimes I wish there was a sequel to it (the ending scene is quite promising) but maybe it's better to leave it as it is, it's too difficult to come up with something of equal quality in the story department.Godzilla sequels have that tendency to add aliens, and other weird story lines... (a robot made of Godzilla's bones? Ghidorah destroyed Venus? Xilians? Monster Islands? Godzilla Junior!!?)I am not saying the old movies are complete rubbish... but they cannot stand next to the original and it's legacy.The most original and beautifully made Godzilla movie in the last 50 years, "Godzilla, Mothra and king Ghidorah Giant Monsters All - Out Attack" is what I consider the true and only sequel to Ishiro Honda's Godzilla (the 1954 masterpiece)!It's only big flaw: That big bad title!!!
