Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

The_Depressed_Star_Wars_fan This movie is okay. As always lets star with the plot. Three kids join Mothra's priestesses on a journey to find the Lost Treasure of Nilai Kinai, an ancient lost "under-the-sea" civilization in hopes of preserving the Earth's declining environment. Pollution has unyielded the evil monster Dagahra (Who reminds me of Godzilla for some reason), a monster seemingly too powerful for Mothra to vanquish. As a result, the environment's fate lies in the hands of the Lost Treasure. (Special Thanks to Oliver Chu for the summary.) Well it isn't as ridicules as the plot to the other films in the trilogy. But still pretty damn silly. I guess this movie is trying to have some kind of save the environment theme, like GODZILLA VS HEADORAH. Which was another weird movie. Actually in this movie Dagahra is a lot like Hedorah, because of the fact that he like lives of of pollution, or some like that. Isn't that interesting. The effects in this movie are decent, better than the effects in the first movie. But still nothing special, like AVATAR or THE LORD OF THE RINGS trilogy. The dubbing in this movie is awful. That can pretty much be expected. So all in all this is an okay movie probably better for the kids though.
Jss0266 First, I love the majority of Toho films. All the silly Godzilla flicks from the 70's and so on, but this film is taking it to a new level. Granted, I'll give it a 5 out of 10, but whats the deal with Mothra and all the powers it now has?....AquaMothra?...give me a break. Both creatures had too many different weapons that weren't explained nor seemed to be a dominant in battle. The effects were good, better than most films of this type, but I would have liked to see more land-based battles, because a moth in water doesn't cut it for me. Dagahra was a unique and interesting creature, so hopefully he'll appear again. After seeing the "Rebirth of Mothra", this was kind of a letdown and a little boring at the end. Hopefully Rebirth 3 is better.
trancejeremy This is a really good movie. I like Godzilla movies, but mostly in a campy fashion, they've good because they're so bad. But this movie is actually good. And many of the lines are funny. Again, not funny because they're goofy, but just funny. The main characters are kids, which could be annoying, but they aren't too bratty. Many of their scenes are actually funny. There are also the 3 faerie sisters (though the evil one has only a minor role), and 2 lackeys of the evil faerie, who are bumbling slackers, almost of the Home Alone variety. Generally speaking, the characterization is quite good - the characters feel like real people for the most part. The production qualities are generally pretty good. Ghogo (sounds like Gorgo), who is this muppet thing that looks like a refugee from Pac-Man, looks fake, but the rest of the movie is excellent. The underwater city is quite impressive, actually. You can tell it's a model, but it's an impressive looking model.The fight scenes are quite good. It follows the general model of these movies. 2 rounds, good monster loses in the first round, but comes back. But the second fight was somewhat unexpected. I saw the AquaMothra bit from the DVD liner, but that didn't prepare me for what was next. Absolutely brilliant.
E102y After kicking the butt of Death Ghidorah, Mothra takes on Dagarah, a creature who was genetically engineered to destroy garbage which went wrong (don't they always?). It's producing starfish-like creatures called Barem, and Mothra's the only one who can stop Dagarah before he destroys the world!Mothra's more or less the same in this movie (apart from the final battle). The same beam weapons as before, but gets a colour change courtesy of the healing powers of Ghogo.Dagarah's an odd one. It's original, I'll give it that, but apart from that, it's not a particularly good monster. It's good how Mothra can't touch him, especially when he dives deeper beneath the sea. Apart from that, it's not much good.AquaMothra is one of the best Mothra forms I've seen. The CGI-fuelled sequence with the multi AquaMothras shooting their beam weapons inside of Dagarah is pretty surreal, but it's meant to be!Ghogo's one of the most bizarre points of the movie. You can actually see the wire which it's attached to when it bounces! Even more bizarre is its human-healing properties: its urine. I wonder if it's any relation to Trumpy from Pod People, like a mother's niece's friend's friend's sister's person-who-they-met-in-the-mall's cousin's school-friend's pet. Ghogo, you can do magic things! (It's called evil. Or is it more like goofiness?)I'm not going to talk about the kids. The Elias are not much different. Moll's still determined to stop the creature and Belvera, where Lora is still the unsure, emotional one. Belvera doesn't get much screentime, and when she does, it's in the company of those two nimrods she hired. Garu Garu's back, but its more mechanised this time. When Mothra lifts Dagarah out of the water when it's been killed (or something like it) the princess says something, Mothra's tractor-beam loses hold, and DAGARAH LANDS ON THE TEMPLE, COMPLETELY OBLITERATED!!! Was that meant to happen?At the end of the movie, there should have been a prelude to MOSURA 3 with King Ghidorah heading towards Earth....
