It's been a long time since I've watched a Godzilla movie (besides seeing the 1954 original lately), but I've been interested in seeing Final Wars after seeing the cool Godzilla PS2 game at A-Kon last year, so I rented it from Netflix. I had a fantastic time watching this two hour kaiju masterpiece, and now I'm itching to rent more Godzilla movies! This movie manages to put Godzilla up against nearly every monster from all of the other movies, including the most famous, Rodan, Mothra, and King Gidorah (and plenty more that I hadn't heard of)! He even fights the crappy Godzilla from the US remake (which looks hilarious since they did it in CG, just like the movie, while all the other monsters are in rubber suits, of course), and he takes him out in two seconds flat. The plot involves an alien race called the Xilians who need humans to be their cattle, and they control all the other monsters to destroy civilization. Our heroes awaken Godzilla to do their fighting for them, but thanks to a fun appearance from Son of Godzilla, he goes away peacefully when the battle's over. I totally had a blast watching this movie! The effects are fantastic and "modern" (but still keep that kaiju charm), the actors are totally into their roles (there's a funny American captain who speaks English), and the battle action is incredible. Gojira wa kakkoii desu!Labels: dvds, godzilla
