Editorial Review:
The monster-about-town becomes doting dad when he adopts orphan lizard Minilla, the result of a radioactive storm caused by a scientific experiment gone wrong. This decidedly juvenile affair shows signs of the series' cost-cutting measures and Godzilla himself has been redesigned to reflect his new, younger audience, with an oversize head and big, doll-like eyes. This kindler, gentler lizard king proceeds to protect the happy-go-lucky kid from the newly mutated giant insects of the island and teaches him how to breathe fire. Much of the film is played for comedy--Minilla blowing smoke rings instead of flames, skipping rope with Dad's tail, skittering about like a mischievous little kid as put-upon Godzilla tries to keep the tyke focused--and is obviously aimed at Godzilla's enormous adolescent audience. But as always, the picture delivers great monster battles, notably with the mutant spider giant Kumonga. --Sean Axmaker

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Picture quality is great!
This dvd has the best picture quality I have seen for something that was filmed so long ago. I wish my other Godzilla dvds had a picture like this one. The picture is a close to HD as you can get.
I hope they plan to release Godzilla films on Blue Ray in the near future.
Rating: - A family movie? No. Japanese Flight of the Pheonix? Yes
I've heard some people say that this is a kids movie. They're wrong. the scientists who live here have to deal with (before the expirement) unusually large praying mantises and after the expirement, giant praying mantises, the son of Godzilla, one of their memebers going mad, Godzilla, and the Spiga (A.K.A. Kumonga) gives a great story and good music, so I suggest adding this to any monster movie collection
Rating:  - Go after monster the old school way

Rating: - THE ONLY THING MISSING IS THE WIFE
It's been said many times that this is the worst Godzilla Movie in the series. Seeing as how Godzilla flicks are never striving for great artistic merit along the lines of The Godfather and The Godfather II, there's no need to call any Godzilla movie bad. Let's face it. All Godzilla movies are bad in some way. That's what makes them so fun. Men in rubber suits and monsters on wires destroying tiny models. Probably my least favorite in the series is the Original, which takes itself far too seriously. ... Read More
