A big green Bogey that totally misses the point of the original classic Japanese versions.

Hmmm very dodgy US update of the classic Tokyo destroying lizard. Its a rip of so many ideas, and the little baby zillas make it even worse, almost 'Jurassic Parkish' crossed with 'Aliens'. The look is good, the effects being quite decent for the time, its all cgi of course but c...( read more)

A spectacular re-vision of a monster movie classic. Awsome speacial-effects and incrediable non-stop exhilerating action that you will never forget. A feast for the eyes and ears. Totally amasing and extroadinary. Thrilling, smart, funny and tremendously fun. Astonishing and brea...( read more)

I want to watch it, and I would watch it, but I would then probably convince myself that this could really happen, so I don't plan on watching it!

This movie isn't even fit to growl at it's predecessor. A horrible remake.

Perdí el dinero del cine. Fue pesima!!! No naturalidad, no hay efectos que le ayuden. Quizá una nueva versión con un mejor director.

July 15, 2008My favorite movie all the time, in the next decade I think I can be pleased to keep watchin' it if I'll still be able to, yeah it's much different than "original Godzilla", man, it's just a big-ass lizard. Original one is more like a "mysterious monster" but in Hollywood there's gotta be a reason concerned, I call it "Scientific fantasy" lol.

April 18, 2007The original Godzilla (Gojira) had no other monsters in it.
Why isn't Vicky Lewis listed as a cast member? -
March 19, 2007This movie shouldn't have used the name Godzilla, there was nothing that remotely resembled Godzilla here, no theme, classic falling backwards constantly, no evil monster other than himself, this is not a Godzilla flick, this is Sony's half-assed attempt to make money off of Godzilla that sells very well in America, the real Godzilla. Sorry folks if you want to see the real thing, check out the Godzilla from the orginial Toho movie company... it may be bad dubbing and what not but its still better than something that is fake.

March 11, 2007I just thought id add this in here, this version is alot better than the rubber suit. Come on, you have to agree? I hate hearing people say it "wasnt like the old versions" Well no shit sherlock, millions of dollars arent being spent on technology to have a guy sweat his balls off in a rubber suit now is it? Also, the guy who did the comment below this one, seriously dude, get a goatee, contact lenses and dress snappier. You can tell me about how youve slept with lots of girls and have a girlfriend and everything. I wont believe you. And i dont thik ill be alone. Heed these words of wisdom.

January 22, 2007This is definitely a superb, underrated film. Ignore ALL bad reviews until you've seen it yourselves. And whether you like this film or not, you'ew bound to like the cartoon series set after it - it's about the battles of the one Zilla that survived, and he has new powers that would give his late father a run for his money, including proper nuclear flame breath!

January 6, 2007i agree that godzilla is a great movie coz i admit i can watch it again and again

August 18, 2006Awesome. This is definatley the best creature ever created. What other monster can run through a city, stubbing his toe on military tanks and slashing away at airborn support?
