Year; 2004
Release; US Sony
To mark the 50th anniversary of the original Godzilla, Toho announced the final film. Heard that before, and theye already said maybe not in the future, just for now. They roll them all out here, a bigger list of monsters even than Destroy All Monsters ( a previous 'final' film). Heck, they even give a shot to the crap yank version, although he gets a pasting in about 20 seconds (deservedly so). The story is pretty lame though, and theres too much of it, not enough monsters. This was supposed to be the grand finale, we want to see monsters, and lots of em. Not emos, playing Matrix with their mates. The monster fights are too short, the human segments too long. Cool to see Kane Kosugi acting again (son of 80's uber-ninja, Sho Kosugi), but, overall, disappointing. Not as good as it could have, or should have, been. Still, if you're into Godzilla, or kaiju, then you gotta have it.
