** Godzilla Befriends a Goofy Looking Robot?!

They decided to try the same format, this time less serious. It didn’t turn out very good at all. Godzilla and Gigan are there and good, but what’s up with the other two?

An advanced underwater race of people called Seatopians (maybe the same people of the original Mothra/Battra fiascal?), mad about atomic testing, sends out their monster, Megalon, to destroy the earth. The need something to guide it, so they steal a flying robot named Jet Jaguar from some inventor guy. The good guys retake control of Jet, and send it to go get Godzilla. It tells Godzilla to come, goes back, grows to a big size, and starts fighting Megalon. Gigan comes, and then Godzilla gets there. They fight, Godzilla and the goofy looking robot wins.

Well now, that wasn’t too good. In fact, is wasn’t really good at all. Main problem is that Jet Jaguar robot. Now only is it goofy looking, it’s a rip-off of Ultraman. And then there is Megalon, the giant beetle with four limbs. It isn’t that bad of a monster, but it is still goofy looking. Not only that, the plot is goofy too. It has a lot of car chase scenes, but with the goofy music in the background, it ends up goofy. There is also a lot of scenes that end up goofy, like the goofy dolphin boat and the goofy "how did they survive that" flying box scene. Or, how about that goofy Godzilla drop-kick scene? Plus, there’s that goofy kid. Bottom line of the paragraph is: this movie is goofy.

The movie is not totally goofy, though. It is also pathetic, stupid, and just plain bad. OK, so it isn’t a total waste. There is a few really cool scenes slipped into the bad special effects and stock footage. Plus, the main battle was pretty cool. Actually, the best scenes are the ones where Jet Jaguar gets his butt kicked! O.K., so maybe this movie is the stupidest, lamest, most pathetic, and goofiest of all the Godzilla movies, but at least it’s not as bad as Godzilla’s Revenge! Basically, only watch it if you have too. Buy it if you want a few Godzilla movies around, it’s cheap and very common. Actually, if you like Godzilla movies a lot, you probably would have about a half a dozen of them laying around because friends and family members probably bought them for you! It’s not their fault, they just don’t realize that the worse movies of a popular series gets made by so many different companies because it’s cheap to buy the rights to it!

O.K. plot

O.K. Special effects

A few good scenes.

At least Gigan and Godzilla are in it.

So lame that it’s funny.

Cheap and easy to come by.

Just plain GOOFY!

Nit-picks.

Bad music.

Sock footage! Stock footage!

Special effects that are worse than the last on? That’s rare.

Wait a minute? That’s not Ultraman!
