Reviews
Bardlerx Strictly average movie
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
JLRVancouver Sneaky aliens are back and once again are using Earth's monsters as dupes in their evil plans. This time the aliens are women (or rock slugs, depending on the temperature) from Kilaak, an asteroid somewhere between Mars and Jupitar, who have taken over the ten monsters sequestered in "Monsterland" (a precursor to 'Monster Island'). Global destruction ensues as the enslaved kaiju attack major cities but, perplexingly, seem to spare Tokyo, a favorite stomping ground. The intrepid crew of the spaceship 'Moonlight SY-3' take the battle to the aliens who respond by recruiting space monster King Ghidorah, setting up a massive monster showdown on the slopes of Mt. Fuji. "Destroy All Monsters" is a great entry into the Showa series of Godzilla films. Many of the kaiju from Godzilla's earlier adventures are there: Mothra from "Mothra vs. Godzilla", Anguirus from "Godzilla Raids Again", Manilla and Kumonga from "Son of Godzilla", as well as Rodan, Gorosaurus from "King Kong Escapes", Manda from "Atragon", Varan from "Varan the Unbelievable" and Baragon from "Frankenstein Conquers the World" (the last two are just seen in cameos on the island as the suits were in poor shape and a misidentified Gorosaurus subs for Baragon in the attack on Paris). The monsters all look pretty good and the various destruction scenes and the climatic brawl are quite well done (including Anguirus' WWF-style drop-kicks). In keeping with the 'science fiction' trend in the series, the astronauts in the Moonlight SY-3 play a major role and the scenes featuring the ship are great. I watched an English subtitled version, but the acting and cast seemed fine for the genre (especially the nefarious Kilaak Queen). All in all, number nine in the franchise is entertaining example of classic kaiju eiga, neither as silly as most of the later Showa-era entries in the franchise nor as complex (or preachy) as the Heisei and millennium films that would follow starting two decades later, the film is fun to watch, especially for fans who are familiar with the Toho bestiary.
jackdickie Godzilla DESTROY ALL MONSTERS, is an OK film, it's got long boring scenes featuring the humans in which it's all "Talk, talk, talk." And has very little monster action until the end in which we see all our favourite of the time monsters team up to fight the evil King Ghidorah. It's the only scene in the film I recommend. Varan and Baragon, even though they're in the film they don't get enough screen time and as I also should mention this was meant to be the last Godzilla movie and so I'd like to say...The Movie is really MEH on my opinion; it's just the end battle scene that I enjoy the most. So, to cut things short, I give this film a 8/10. I still can recommend the whole entire film, but keep in mind there's tons of scenes involving the humans in which they're standing around talking and then going off to do something and continuing to do more things which to them are very important but for me, they feel long and stretched out... Still 8/10. Just skip to the end battle scene.
jacobjohntaylor1 The best Godzilla movie is Godzilla (1998). You don't have to agree. But if your mad about it then your a great big pooh pooh head. This is the fourth R.o.d.a.n movie. It is also the fifth M.o.t.h.r.a movie. It is also the ninth Godzilla movie. The original R.o.d.a.n is better. The 12th Godzilla movie which is also the 6th M.o.t.h.r.a movie is call Godzilla vs G.i.g.a.n. That one is better to. The 13th Godzilla movie that is also the fifth R.o.d.a.n movie is called Godzilla vs M.e.g.a.l.o.n. The one is also better. Godzilla final wars is part 28 to the Japan Godzilla series. It is also the seventh R.o.d.a.n movie. It is also the 14th M.o.t.h.r.a movie. That one is also better. All R.o.d.a.n are good. All the M.o.t.h.r.a movies are good. Most of the Godzilla movies are good. This is very good movie. Very entertaining. See it. It's a classic. A great classic.
SciFiSheriff In 1968, Toho had so many popular monsters in their arsenal that they decided to produce one of the greatest ideas in monster movie history! This is my review on Destroy all monsters The plot goes like this; All of earth's giant monsters are captured and contained by the people of earth on a small island off Japan. However, aliens swoop down from the skies and set the monsters lose on the world. As they destroy the major cities, the people of JApan must come up with a plan to stop this alien threat.Godzilla has been in A lot of good movies but this one is at the top of the list.Let's start with the story. I have to say, I really enjoyed the plot. It wasn't to deep or mind-boggling, but it was quite interesting with a couple of plot twists here and there. Most of the movie centres around the human's efforts to stop the alien plot. While the story is interesting, it does sag a little, but that is not why we watch Godzilla movies, nor does it degrade this monster flick.Now onto the monsters. Never has there been such a great monster crossover gathering in all movie history. Rodan, Mothra, Varan, Manda, Baragon,Kumonga, Anguirus, Gorosaurus and King Ghidorah all show up in this huge picture, each with their own unique abilities. Mothra shoots webs, Anguirus spikes his enemies, Gorosaurus with his classic flying kick- the list goes on. My only disappointment is that baragon and varan don't make a big appearance. I was hoping they would join in at the end, but they didn't.At the end, one of the best monster rumbles in movie history goes flat out, with heat rays, webs and other monsters going every where. The three headed Dragon ,King Ghidorah , shows up to wipe out earths monsters and gets a "warm" welcome. The fight is huge and it still makes me think how they did some of the effect, which thankfully isn't CGI.One of the best monster movies in history that assembles all the greatest monsters of all time. They should do it again, without CGI and a lot more monsters for us to sink our teeth into. In my opinion, it's the perfect movie to watch with a younger viewer, particularly if you have a son. Just sit down and enjoy this cheesy action romp.Im giving it a 10/10
