 "ONE OF THE BEST GODZILLA MOVIES I'VE EVER SEEN"It is much better than the 1960's and 70's godzilla movies. I think it's better than Godzilla vs. Biollante movie also. Still all the godzilla movies are good but some are a lot better than others. "Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II"This is probably the best in the "Heisei" Godzilla series. Plenty of special effects action, good characterizations and great music. The tape I have was recorded in sp mode, so the sound and picture quality is first-rate. And, if you have a Dolby surround sound system, it will knock your socks off! A "must have" for G-Fans! "The best of the best, at times."OK, down to basics. SFX and music-wise, this is positively the best G-film of all, preceding "Godzilla 2000", which I haven't seen yet. The musical score is Akira Ifukube's best soundtrack since 1968's "Destroy All Monsters", without question. His new MechaGodzilla theme is positively awe-inspiring at times, perfectly capturing the awesome visual majesty of Godzilla's cyborg double. The SFX are some of Kawakita's very best, even surpassing the high hurdle he himself set during "G. vs. King Ghidorah". Story-wise, the film holds up fairly well, and the new Baby Godzilla actually emotes very well...better than some of his live-action counterparts, as a matter of fact! Godzilla himself is positively magnificent. The body language is incredible-- Kenpatchiro Satsuma really NAILED the part inside the rubber suit this time! The dubbing aside (as always, I prefer a subtitled version!), this is one of the very best of the Godzilla films, from ANY of the series. G + MG = Mega-fun! "One of the best!"The fifth film of the Heisei-era series is, in a word, FANTASTIC! A remarkable film that just keeps on getting better with each subsequent viewing, G vs. MG features top-notch spfx, good character developement, a simple yet multi-layered story, and a brilliant score from the Maestro himself, Akira Ifukabe. This movie is fun and engaging, yet also carries some serious themes(mankind's arrogant quest to dominate all of nature, the exploitation of the innocent, and man's status as the one true monster). Both adults and youngsters can enjoy this film and come away with something to think about. The only draw-backs are that the tape is recorded in the EP mode, is in mono, and is dubbed in English. Though this sort of ill-treatment is a serious detriment to the film, it should not stop you from buying this tape. Of the 22 Japanese adventures of Godzilla, this is truly one of the best! "CAN YOU SMELLLLL LALLLALLLAAAA WHAT GODZILLA.....IS COOKING!"this movie ROCKED! this was one of the best G movies out there! if you are a fan of the big G then you need to see this! you owe it to yourself! my favorite part was when Godzilla shot his blue flame! that ruled! almost burned a hole in my rug it was so real! this movie needs to be on dvd! please let it go on DVD! PLEASE AMAZON.COM BRING IT TO US IN DVD! PS: GODZILLA RULES! :) |
