Review – Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla

They really need to start issuing score cards for these things. In the first go-around between these two, Godzilla was the hero defending Earth against greedy aliens and their mechanical monster. But now the roles are reversed. The King of Monsters is up to his old smashing-up-the-place tricks, and a team of human defenders must pilot the robot version in order to stop him. The monster suits are better (or at least more skillfully assembled) than the older iterations, but the story is commensurately less interesting. So by all means come for the usual model-smashing mayhem, but don’t feel like you have to pay a lot of attention to anything else. Mildly amusing
