*** Godzilla’s Cybernetic Double is Back for Revenge!

Godzilla’s popularity has for some reason fallen to practically nothing. In order to dig themselves out of the hole they somehow got themselves in, Toho brings back Inoshiro Honda to direct the next movie. Unfortunately, It wasn’t enough, and this was the last of the original Godzilla series.

Those dang space aliens came back to repair Mechagodzilla. While they are doing that, they get help from the disgruntled Professor Mafuni. His cyborg daughter controls Titanosaurus, a really big aquatic dinosaur. Once Mechagodzilla is fixed, they send it and Titanosaurus of to, of course, Tokyo. Godzilla shows up to fight both of them, and with some help from the humans, wins.

Toho got in a hole by making Godzilla save the Tokyo from aliens. So what do they do? They keep the same plot and just change the director. Although this was a good movie, it wasn’t what they needed to save themselves. Goofy aliens with goofy helmets who control Giant monsters and send them to Tokyo but get beat up by Godzilla with help from humans isn’t the most original plot. Despite it’s lack of series saving, it is pretty good. The special effects are the best in the old series. The plot is more in-depth than the last few movies. The fighting is really well done and very explosive. It seems that like the last movie, they got a lot of fireworks at an after Forth of July sale, because there is tons of explosions. The scene where Godzilla meets Titanosaurus for the first time and the scene where Godzilla is running through all the explosions to get to Godzilla are some of the most spectacular of the series. The whole movie was pieced together very well. Just about everything works out right. The only problem is the main concept.

The monsters in this movie were designed very well. Mechagodzilla looks better than ever. Titanosaurus looks good and works good, but acts like a big goof. He’s an idiot, but that’s actually good. Finally a stupid goofy monster that works well when being goofy. He aint very powerful, but that’s a good thing because then Godzilla stands a chance of defeating two monsters. Godzilla wasn’t in pain when Titanosaurs flapped his tail around to make a whirlwind, he was laughing! One thing I can’t figure out, why is something that lives in the ocean be weak against sonar? Dolphins and a bunch of other sea creatures us sonar all the time. That makes no sense.

As a whole, this movie was well made. It may not have been enough to save the series, but it still was good. It’s a most watch for people who like Godzilla movies. Go out and get this one, I doubt you will be disappointed.

Great Plot

Best special effects of old series.

Great main battle.

Some very spectacular scenes.

Titanosuarus is a goof that acts goofy in the right way.

Not very original.

Plot a little far-fetched

Wasn’t enough to save the series.

Two against one? That’s no fair!

A sea creature that is weak against sonar? Lame.

Titanosaurus is a rip-off of Gorgo!
