Bad Godzilla ripoff
14 April 2006
The old Godzilla movies are by no means a great example of cinema, and this late-60's ripoff is even worse. The story is tired and overused, about a group of scientists and reporters that bring a baby monster back to Japan, and the parents arrive to wreak havoc. Perhaps a subtitled version may have been better, but the dubbing on this version was hilarious. Some of the lines, especially those by "the Publisher" were completely off-track from the facial expressions, which provided plenty of laughs. The monsters looked typical for the era, which is a kinder way of saying that they looked awful. The inevitable destruction of Tokyo seemed to drag on forever, to the point where I found myself fast forwarding through it. Bottom line...avoid it.
