Talking to a spirit, a dance marathon, and a yacht jacking. The story doesn't really make sense as it stumbles from one situation to the next. All it really wants is a yacht and the monster. It could have gotten there a lot more simpler but it wouldn't be a Godzilla movie if it was well written. Four men are shipwrecked on an island after their yacht is destroyed by the monster. The island is controlled by terrorist organization Red Bamboo with the natives as forced labor. The quartet is joined by native girl Daiyo. They find Godzilla sleeping in a cave.
The franchise is getting more and more campy. The whole first act is a convoluted journey. Infant island is not always the most exciting but at least, it has the Shobijin twins. Only in this one, the twins are different and I don't like it. I don't really like a sleepy Godzilla either. It would have been better to have Godzilla trapped rather than sleeping. I also don't like the terrorists. The franchise seems to be losing its way.
