Torgo_Approves What would happen if one of the most celebrated, most recognizable animated characters in pop culture history encountered an equally celebrated, even more recognizable giant reptilian from Tokyo? This movie answers this question and more, as it takes up themes like the inevitability of the end of everything and the timeless wonders of nature. Bambi is so utterly convincing as Bambi it's hard to tell that this is all acting. Godzilla's appearance, although short, is extremely entertaining and memorable. The animation, although sketchy, creates a certain atmosphere which makes the film stay with you long after it has ended. "BmG" also features one of the most unique and mind-blowing twist endings of all time. It can be seen as a "Sixth Sense" with furry animals.This is a masterpiece of the highest order and the best movie you're ever likely to see about wildlife culture clashes. A must-own.10/10

Tommy Nelson I rented this about 10 years ago with about 30 minutes of other cartoons after this, and this....well it delivers what it promises. The short must be around a minute long and it just consists of Bambi eating some grass, Godzilla's foot comes down and stomps him, we see a twitch in Godzilla's toe, and it's over. It was funny the first time I saw it because of how short and intense it was. After that, you realize it is just a really low budget, poorly animated short that has nothing, and anyone could make it. I have to give it at least partial credit because it was amusing, but the cartoons that follow are much better.My rating: ** out of ****. 1 min.

johnthewarlord The credit sequence (which is extensive) is hilarious. (I believe this movie influenced Monty Python's credit sequences.) It falls prey to the same sync problems which plague most Japanese imports. Although the plot is simple, it has become a classic because of its direct approach to universal themes and interpretations ranging from "good vs evil" to "little guy vs corporate greed." Marxist undertones are not hard to see here. The director's clear point of view and gracious acknowledgment of the many (usually anonymous) workers whose contributions blend seamlessly to make this classic make this one of the least didactic of the Godzilla canon.

Atavisten It will probably take more time to write a review of it than to actually watch it, but if you are given the rare opportunity to watch it, do! How it resolved was not only both expected and surprising at the same time, it was also so logical and funny that you have to watch it again many times over. Watch and repeat.To tell what the fate of the grazing Bambi was would not spoil the movie too much, you should always keep in mind anyways that when watching movies that, except for keeping in mind the following; you clear your mind of expectations and don't ruin it by just "knowing" what will happen next, thats absolutely for the better.One of the best anime shorts ever!
