doafan-34916 I've only seen Godzilla: Final Wars twice in my life and the very first time I watched it and seen that ball of fire coming to earth, I knew that it wasn't a planet as the Xilions had said it was. I just felt that it was (excuse the pun) more than meets the eye. When Godzilla blasts it and you see that it is indeed a monster, I laughed as I knew who it was right away. If any of you are a monster fan like I am you would've realized that there was only 1 monster that ever came from outer space. you can call it Ghidrah or King Ghidora, but they are one in the same monster. Sure one is green in color and the other is gold in color but when you put 2 and 2 together you get the same monster.

O2D This time around there is lots of action.Sadly, that action is all humans and not monsters.When the monsters do show up, nothing makes sense.Once again, aliens have come to Earth and have taken the form of humans.A plot that has been done to death in these movies.Of course when they die they revert to their true form, ugh.For some reason the Mothra twins are in this and they are still the same age they were 60 years ago, ugh.I will never understand why Mothra exists or how people can accept it as a monster.So anyway, the action is all Jackie Chan meets The Matrix and it's somehow boring and confusing at the same time.As usual this movie raises more questions than it answers.A guy calls Godzilla "she" and that answers the question I have had for so long.Does that mean it is actually Son Of Godzilla's mom?Who knows?So a planet is going to crash into Earth and here comes the lameness.Godzilla sees it coming and uses her "fire" breath to blow it up.Which brings up so many questions.How did she know it was a threat when it was so far away?How could she blow it up but she can't harm a moth?Why would she even want to save Earth?She has spent more than half a century trying to destroy earth and now she wants to save it?And once again they have one character who speaks English.What's the deal with that?And this guy dresses like he's in the Russian army but he runs a group of mutants.Mutants who have NO powers.What is the point of them being mutants if all they can do is rip-off The Matrix?While this is definitely the best Godzilla movie I have seen, it's still a bad movie.If you must watch Godzilla, this may be the movie to see.

jmillerdp Thoroughly wacky, WTF?! final edition of original Japanese studio Toho's Godzilla movies. This was the last one before they handed Godzilla over to the U.S. And, I am guessing, so Gareth Edwards could make his zero- fun, way-too-serious, almost-Godzilla-less 2014 version!As has been mentioned, a lot of the movie has "The Matrix" knockoff stuff, "Star Wars" knockoff stuff, etc. There is monster action at the beginning. Then, you have to wait until the one-hour mark to see more. But, the rest of the monster stuff is pretty good, with special appearances by Toho monsters of old!The highlight is (easily!) a hilarious badly-CGI'd appearance by the ill-fated 1998, Roland Emmerich-Dean Devlin U.S. Godzilla. And, what happens to him is too funny for words!Otherwise, pretty much required viewing for Godzilla fans. But, it is very unlikely to rate all that highly on fans' favorite lists!***** (5 Out of 10 Stars)

Al_The_Strange Godzilla might be the one character on film with the longest history. It's just like James Bond: it never really dies or ends, it just keeps coming back decade after decade in some new hip style.After twenty-plus Godzilla films, Final Wars presents the last foray in the classic series into the crazy world of rampaging monsters toppling cities (in the same fashion as Die Another Day was the last Bond film of the initial series that went crazy with the gadgets and evil megalomaniacs and such). If nothing else, Final Wars goes all-out in shoving in as much epic action, as many monsters, and as much glorious cheese as it can! And it does so with flash and style! Really, the film is utterly stupid and laughable. The acting is very cheesy (especially when watching it with English dubbing), the action is very over-the-top, the monsters still look fake as hell, and the production overall is as cheap as they come. The film also has a ton of scenes where they tried their best to be modern and cool; you can expect to meet a squad of dudes who twirl around with guns, as if they came from Equilibrium. And, there are car chases and fight scenes galore. Of course, the main highlight is the mass carnage caused by the monsters, and the film doesn't disappoint on that level: in addition to Godzilla, there are also flying bugs, rampaging lizards, and aliens destroying practically every city in the world. A whole gang of monsters from the older films return, including Mothra, Gigan, Rodan, Ghidorah, Ebirah, and so many more! They've even thrown in Zilla, from the much-hated '98 US film in the mix! Godzilla's son appears in all his stupid glory! Oh yeah, it doesn't get much bigger than this! The story's pretty silly, the characters are pretty flat, but what really matters it that it's basically the end-all-be-all war of monsters. The first half of the film sets things up fine and dandy, before all heck breaks lose in the last half. Nothing terribly deep, but it's cool all the same.This film is quite cheesy. It does have fine and dandy photography. Editing can be pretty hectic and erratic (especially during the opening credits scene, which includes some cool clips from the last 20-something movies). Acting and writing are pretty bad. This production has some very cheap-looking sets, props, and costumes. Music is pretty cool.This is the type of kaiju film I find myself enjoying more and more: it's the type that doesn't take itself seriously, and knows how to have a good time. The film moves fast, has loads of action, and has a pretty generous helping of cheese. If you don't mind that kind of thing, then this movie should be a must-see! 4/5 (Entertainment: Perfect | Story: Average | Film: Average)
