I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Having GodIlla fight a clone of himself on paper sounds weird. How would it be unique? Well SpaceGodzilla is actually quite menacing, he captures Godzilla's son and wishes to take over the world. The monster fights are good, there's good screen time for Godzilla, which is always good, but like a lot of movies he takes a backseat to MOGURA, who is a less cool version of MechaGodzilla. For a nearly 2 hr movie, the 40th anniversary film of Godzilla is actually quite entertaining, but suffer the series common problem that some of the the other Heisi era films escaped from.But all in all, good film.

Hosnestly, I'm not entirely sure why some people are hating this movie. There are a few parts to nitpick, but I don't officially mind. Without a doubt, this is one of the best installments in the Godzilla series. It's a film that shakes the foundations of the very cosmos.G-Force, a military organization that basically studies Godzilla in order to find solutions for dealing with the monster, has developed two special programs: Project T (using a sort of mind control device made to keep Godzilla under control) and Project M (building MOGUERA, who first appeared in the "Mysterians", to combat Godzilla). However, a new menace has arrived from space to take over the world and kill the King of the Monsters: Spacegodzilla. With the help of MOGUERA, Godzilla decides to free his now imprisoned son and save the world from his cosmic clone.A cool story is backed up by some familiar human characters, flashy effects, and awesome fight scenes. Miki Saegusa, the telepath that sympathizes with Godzilla, returns in what is probably her biggest role in the Hensei series, supporting the Monster King every step of the way. The fights between Godzilla and MOGUERA against Spacegodzilla are absolutely epic. They just beat the living crap out of each other as they destroy everything in sight. The music is also to be commended. Spacegodzilla is really powerful and his theme music helps emphasize how menacing he is.It deserves more credit than it gets for what it is: an epic Godzilla film. Worth the watch, so check it out.

Godzilla DNA makes it into space and creates Big G's next adversary, Space Godzilla. Space G is very cool looking if you can accept the big crystals sticking out of his shoulders. The music score was rather strange and seemed lacking at times. It's 'The Love Boat' crossed with up-tempo canned 80's synthesizer driven cable local access music. The fleeing mob scenes are poorly done(American dubbed version only?), as it sounds like two people recorded multiple times. The male voice being Star Trek's George Takei(aka Sulu). The lighting appears brighter giving the suits an unflattering shiny appearance. One of my favorite Godzilla suits was used in this film, although his lower half is bloated and he appears a bit stiff. Some great camera shots of Big G deliberately smashing buildings with his hands, and lots of explosions as he stomps on things. A bonus for Toho fans of The Mysterians, is the return of Moguera! Even though the robot cannot compete with Mech-G, it was a nostalgic pleasant surprise to see him. Probably the low point for Heisei era kaiju, but if you can get over the cheesy music, you can still enjoy this monster mash. Just for fun see if you can spot who I call the Japanese Shemp.*review edited after further review*

This is one of the best of the Heisei movies. Unfortunately thats not saying a lot, but this one really is worth every minute. The 'suitmation' is excellent; from the city rampages to the landscape fights on infant island. The models are well made and the destruction is complete. Godzilla is cool as always, Moguera is OK. I'm personally a bit tired of giant robots, and mecha versions of monsters, but on the other hand it's nice to see the humans playing along with the big boys ;) Spacegodzilla on the other hand is a bit of a let down. hard to imagine when he's basically a Godzilla clone huh? But those two crystals on its shoulders looks like two enormous pimples. How about giving it a crystal ridge down its back to resemble Godzilla's fins?!? Now that would have been cool. He's a worthy opponent none the less. And now for the cheese. There's plenty of bad acting and crazy characters in this one, ridiculous one-liners and if you have the dubbed version, that just add to the fun. Also plot holes are a plenty. Like the explanation on Spacegodzilla's birth. G-cells released by Biollante when it dissolved and went into space and floated around and went through a black hole. If the cells could float around in space and reach a black hole within 4 years, the earth would be in a whole lot more danger than what the intergalactic Godzilla wannabe presented. A worthy installment in the Godzilla saga.
