Godzilla

Comments Off

Godzilla (ゴジラ, Gojira?) is a kaijū (fictional Japanese monster) from the Godzilla series of science fiction films. He was first seen in the 1954 film Godzilla and has appeared in 28 films to date, all of which were produced by Toho Co. Ltd. As one of the most iconic characters in film history, Godzilla has also appeared in numerous comic books, video games, novels and popular culture.

In 1998, TriStar Pictures produced a remake set in New York City, starring Matthew Broderick; the film's name was simply Godzilla. Despite criticizing reviews, the film was a financial success, taking in nearly $380 million worldwide and spawned an animated television series called Godzilla: The Series.

This movie was so great that it is almost impossible to tell ya. I will not give away the story. If you ever get the chance to buy this movie, do not waste it. You will be sorry if you do not get it. It is a rare Godzilla flick. The best Godzilla movie is right here.

Hello my name is Timothy and I am 10 years old.I am Godzillas biggest fan.I saw this movie and it was the worst Godzilla movie there is.I love Godzilla but this movie was horrible.Godzilla didnt show up for like,45 miutes and it was 18 minutes afer he showed up that he fought Biollante and the fight was only 3 minutes.Next Godzilla attacked Osaka and destroyed the super-x 2 while he was destroying the city.Finally the military came up with a plan to get godzilla sleepy and they could destoy him and Biollante in evloved form interrupted and started fighting godzilla,and just as the last battle,it was 5 minutes long.2 minutes longer than the first battle.I love Godzilla in this movie but the rest is a crazy story.It ruined the Hensi series.This would have gotten another star if the title was better.It shouldnt have Biollante on the cover.Dont buy this movie.It will ruin your godzilla loving life.

This is the sequel to Godzilla 1985. The movie is entertaining even if Godzilla is fighting a giant rose monster. It turns into a Godzilla like plant later in the movie and really gives Godzilla a beating! Overall the movie is good, not boring; the only thing wrong with it is that sometimes they call Godzilla "Godziller" which is a little annoying

The answer to the title question is Biollante (plant). A dr. creates a giant plant using Godzilla's cells. Like every other Godzilla movie, Godzilla battles Biollante. Biollante battles Godzilla in his Rose form. Godzilla beats Biollante and Biollante seems to die (yeah right). Godzilla does some damage and about thirty minutes later Godzilla battles Biollante final form. They have a pretty good fight, but in the end, Biollante forces Godzilla to retreat from battle. Biollante then turns into cells and they go up into space. It is a direct sequel from Godzilla 1985. I like this movie alot. I wish it were out on DVD.

!!!this is a very good movie, the story was well done the special effects were cool and the city devastating was awsome, this movie is my 2nd fave of the hesisi godzilla series [my first was godzilla 1985] but comparing it to godzilla 1985 it's a little boring g-1985 music was TOTALLY BETTER, the second fight with biollante was very good!

Average Rating:

Five years after Godzilla 1985, the giant gray one awakens from his hibernation to take on his most unusual enemy, a towering mutant rosebush, the result of an ill-conceived genetics experiment. The 17th Godzilla feature (and second of the new wave) combines industrial espionage, military plots, and an element of the paranormal for a rather complicated story; but if the details blur in the confusion, the day-glo colors and bizarre monster designs help give the film a larger-than-life, comic-book look...

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST GODZILLA MOVIES EVER MADE! WHY HAS THIS ONE BEEN LONG OVERLOOKED FOR DVD RELEASE? GET ON THE STICK AND GET THIS DONE!

Thirty years later and it's still about radiation and models. "Godzilla 1985" is a slightly updated version of the classic Godzilla movie: it's still a guy in a big rubber suit stomping around detailed models, and he's still embroiled in a plot with heavy-handed doses of the Japanese skepticism of radiation. (Given their history, I don't blame them.) Here Godzilla once again emerges from the sea, and poses a peril to mankind. The Soviets defy the wishes of the Japanese government and launch a nuclear weapon at Godzilla despite the fact that he happens to be in Tokyo at the time. Collateral damage, anyone? The US military fortunately dispatches the Soviet missile with a missile of their own, while consulting with Raymond Burr who is reprising his role as Steve Martin. Burr advises that firepower is not the answer, and that a deeper understanding of Godzilla's motives are key to defeating him. With that in mind they immediately plan to lure Godzilla into a volcano. Along the way we get to see some special effect typical of the genre. My personal favorite is the "Super-X" secret levitating craft, although Godzilla's encounters with the model boats, helicopters, planes, and buildings are still fun to watch. The best laugh of the movie comes from the drunk guy running from Godzilla after mistaking him for a restaurant waiter repeatedly. (I'm not making that up.) There is another customary device in this movie, namely, everyone in Japan seems to know everybody else. True to form, plot contrivances abound here. The movie ends with Godzilla in the volcano, although we aren't totally sure whether or not lava can destroy him, as there is always another sequel right around the corner. Please note the sanctimonious voiceover work from Burr during the volcano-luring: it really wants to be deep, but it just doesn't work given the ridiculous onscreen image. This is a great resurrection of the Godzilla franchise after a decade-long break. It is enjoyable if you like the giant-monster-attacks-models genre, which I do. For those fans I recommend the film wholeheartedly.

OMG, you have to get to the last scene and the closing theme. Man, I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. This is, clearly, not so much the legend reborn reinventing of the Godzilla myth that we'll see in the later series so much is it is the final say in the Godzilla we'd known and loved through the 60's and 70's; this film owes far more to the Kaiju of "Mosura" or "Smog Monster" than to the later epics. For one thing, this is probably the last time when SCIENCE is the hero, triumphing over beasts of men and monsters despite the lack of government funding ;) True, the special effects in this film are a departure from the 70's fare, but that's what makes this film so special in the Godzilla cannon: It has the FEEL of a modern film but it has the ETHOS of the classical era. It is at once very modern and also quite at home with even the Godzilla's Revenge entries. I waited a long time to see this one (20 years!) and I was not disappointed. This film is, in many respects, "the missing link". But that last bit, as soon as the techobeat started, I knew it was 1985 all over again, and when the lyrics hit? ... I'm still giggling. First class Godzilla, five thumbs up if I had them.

There's not a lot to say about this movie except that the music is bad, the Godzilla costume is sad, his roar is terrible, and the story stinks.

this movie is awesome.there is no lame crappy parts in this movie.well first of all its the sequel to the 1954 godzilla and he fights some plant. here is a long summery. ok godzilla goes into the town and he fights the army. he does not hane any crazy enimies and they sucseed (or do they).i will not tell u who wins . i know that u will probabaly say this isn't helpful onthe thingy down there(look down and you will see it) but O WELL-BEN KUHLMAN

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of the original Godzilla film, the lizard king returned to the big screen after a decade of inactivity for this 16th Godzilla feature. Originally released in Japan in 1984 as The Return of Godzilla, this modern sequel sweeps away decades of sequels and even recaptures the awe and grandeur of the original film, while adding modern technology and increased military firepower...

This was the first Godzilla movie I saw before I saw the first one. Yes it looks really cheaply done but it's still a really good movie if you get passed that. What do you expect from people dressed up in costumes.

I am always amused when people say this is a terrible movie. I want to ask "What were you expecting? The title is `King Kong vs. Godzilla' not `King Lear.'" It is a movie with two guys in rubber suits or giant puppets tap dancing on a model Tokyo and beating the snot out of each other. There is no great philosophical debate going on. There is no look into the human soul for answers or guilt. When I was a little kid there were lots of movies like this. If I was lucky I'd catch them on channel 9 in NYC on a Saturday afternoon, and this was always the best. This was the one that my brother and I would get most excited about. The model Kong lacks the realism of the original RKO ape, yeah I know think about that phrase, and this Godzilla lacks the cinematic art and sadness of that monster's theatrical debut, but this film still has its moments. From here came a wide number of increasingly cheesy monster movies but this was its birth. And for plot and development this was the best of them. It tries to be self consistent and for the most part it succeeds, though I will admit to laughing out loud when people are told to evacuate a bullet train because Godzilla is heading right for them. The conductor vainly says "Don't panic" and I want to say "What else is there to do?" If you are looking for great acting, plots or heck even FX this is sooo not for you. However if you love this genre or like me, you have fond memories of the Japanese rubber suit movies, then this is a gem for your collection.

Fun for the whole family! The kids love it! Easy menus, english dubbing available as well as original Japanese version! Worth the money for a classic movie lover!

It is possible to view this movie -or at least its eponymous monsters -as symbolising the clash between US and Japanese cultures .Yes ,true .It is also possible to see it as another excruciatingly awful entry in a very silly and technically inept ,shoddy Japanese monster cycle ,Let me be blunt-these movies are for addicts not adults. This is based on an early draft by Willis O'Brien ,the creator of King Kong,but was completely rewritten by the Japanese as a vehivle for "their"monster Godzilla and works best if seen as a comedy ,not horror or fantasy.Godzilla is woken from frozen hybernation by an atomic submarine and makes unerringly for Tokyo.Kong after making mincemeat of a giant octopus threatening Japanese fishermen is sedated and flown to Tokyo to take on the marauding lizard and they come together in a Battle of the Giants near Mount Fuji . The story is trite ,the effects risible and the dubbing execrable .To those who love this sort of thing -good on you -but it simply makes me realise that as P T Barnum once said "nobody ever lost money underestimating the intelligence of the audience"

Why would someone buy this pan & scan trash? do yourself a favor and recycle it!! The igonorance of some of these companies is overwhelming. This isn't the '80's any more, is it? Boycott rip-offs like this!

Item was shipped fast and arrived just as described. The game is bad according to my son's. But the seller was perfect!

Very Fun, This Game Is So fun that I play Whit it Day And Night. and Can You Believe this. I'm still 9 years Old and I'm not scared. But my mother Does Not Like To hear the Monster Sounds. And all my mother could say about this Game was that ; Where did the People Get these Monster sounds, but I still Love this game and there is a Realy Ugly monster Called Biolante. Its Just too much fun.

I love fighting games. MKA on the WII was awesome and in my view the best version of the game with the most fighters. Once again I belive Wii has the best version of this great game. Anyone growing up in the NES era would have given anything for an awesome game like this. All we got was the horrid Godzilla and Godzilla II and more horrid games to follow. Finally after all this time we have Godzilla DAM on GC and this gem on wii. The monsters and arena's are awesome, the moves are great, the controls are quite good, the destruction is second to none, the graphics are spot on and the action is great. The is a very enjoyable game on all fronts for any Godzilla or fighting game fan. Forget MK vs DC garbage games and get this one.

This is a pretty good game for kaiju fans. Has a nice adventure mode with good fights. Multiplayer is a bit dissapointing. The CPUs won't attack sometimes and just let you beat them to a pulp with no challenge. Also if you pick 2 random monsters to fight, it usually rigs the matches in a certain order so that you keep getting the same matches over and over again. Like for instance, if you get Godzilla vs. Gigan for one match, you're probably gona get that same match-up every other match saddly. It's better just to make your own matches. This game also has some lagg and some minor glitches but its an okay game. It's no Super Smash Bros. Brawl by any means.

For a Godzilla game, I'd have to say by look alone that this is the best Godzilla that has been released as of now. Too bad that it has some flaws that really drag the score down. One thing about the game is that some of the levels, maybe all, can be beaten without even fighting the monster but just by breaking all of the crystals. I had to fight sometimes because the monsters wouldn't get out of my way, but other than that, breaking the crystals was fine. That's another thing, the controls are confusing! Even using the tutorial, I can't remember all of those different things I'm supposed to do with my Wii remote to do most of those cool moves. So, I either just get lucky by pressing a lot of buttons or just press A and B a lot. The camera is pretty bad at times as well. Overall, the look of the game is beautiful and there is finally an actually storyline this time instead of just at the beginning and end like the previous two games! So that's a plus. I'd say that you will like the game if you are a fan of the Big G, but maybe not so much if you aren't

GODZILLA!!!!!!!! UNLEASH THE BEAST. SAVE THE EARTH WAS GREAT, BUT UNLEASH IS EVEN BETTER. GODZILLA!!!!!!!!

The game is fun. But I am playing it on a PS3 and can't save it.

My son (Ben) and his best friend (Christopher) just played the game in 2P mode and they love it! Would recommend if you play games in 2P mode.

I ordered this game through another vendor through Amazon.com and they never sent it and never responded except to cancel my order with out reasoning. However, good ole Amazon.com provided another vendor and they had the game to me within two days it was there for our grandson's Christmas. Thanks Amazon.com that is why I always order from you.

Pay no attention to Atari's ad about the game. It says that it has new monsters when in fact it only has one new monster for the PS2. The new monster is of course just a different skin of Orga, same moves and everything. I want to get my money back from Atari for false advertising the game. I had to do deep research to find out that the game had the same monsters as "Godzilla, save the earth." However, it does in fact have different monsters for the Wii, but it doesn't say anywhere that the monsters are just the same as all the other games for the PS2 and no new ones. I am not going to discuss graphics because they are not even near acceptable. This game, for the PS2, is a failure!!! *Report Card* Sound----------F Looks----------F New monsters---F All around-----F Monsters that I can find on "Save the earth"----A

my son loves to play this game. we rec'd it quickly and in perfect shape.

This game is fun but sometimes can get fustrating. Sometimes its satisfying beating down a tough monster. There is an Adventure mode but however, defeating a monster won't unlock it. I disliked the part of the game a lot. There are a few cool cities you can fight in though, like London. The sound effects are loud and exiting. Overall, this is the type of game I'd just rent.

This is EXACTLY what a Godzilla game should be! After years of bad games and even some strategy games (WTF?) Godzilla is done justice. This is exactly what you think it is, gigantic monsters beating each other senseless while cities crumble around them. The game feels like a WWE game with it's combo of strikes and grabs, but it's much simpler and easy to learn. Maybe too simple for a gamer looking for complexity. But younger players and ESPECIALLY lontime Godzilla fans must try this game out.

By today's standards, the graphics to this game aren't the best, but this game is still as fun as the best fighting games out there. The thing about this game is that you don't have to be a fan of Godzilla to enjoy it. I have been a fan, however, of Godzilla for many years. But, who doesn't like being monsters and destroying the city in an all out brawl? The story pokes fun at itself by having weird looking aliens that have comedy to them as they threaten to take over the world using the monsters from Monster Island. Like I said, it is funny (intentionally) and a nice homage to the Godzilla films of the 60s and 70s. Compared to the more recent release of "Save the Earth", the selection of monsters seems limited, but I argue the fact that perhaps the monsters look better on this game during gameplay than they do in its sequel. Overall, this is a fun game to have but the exact same game as "Godzilla: Save the Earth. The only difference is that this game has less monster selections to choose from and less cities to destroy with no mini games at all compared to the other. So, if you have the other game already, you basically have a better version of this when it comes to quantity. If you are a fan of classic Gamecube games or don't have the other game, then is will be fun to have in your collection.

Check your brain upon entry, then bust every thing that moves (or doesn't)

Godzilla: The Album Godzilla: The Album

Reviews

Considering the film was such a B-grade crowd-pleaser (nothing wrong with that), with its tongue set firmly in its cheek, it was refreshing to have an inspired list of tracks accompanying the movie that transfer into a movie soundtrack compilation worth having.

Purchased for litereally ONE song that I can't find elsewhere...the rest of the CD isn't that good.

The film "Godzilla" from the year 1998 seemed to catch some mixed reviews, but in looking back at the soundtrack that accompanied the film, it is safe to say it is still a hit to this day. For modern rock enthusiasts, recognizable bands will be seen with the likes of Rage against the Machine, Fuel and the Foo Fighters, while the Wallflowers and Ben Folds Five are now distant memories. Regardless, the contributions throughout the soundtrack for the Godzilla movie are still very poignant. There is an incredible kinetic energy that comes through with P. Diddy and former Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy page on the tune "Come with me", while another solid tune being Days of the New with the whiskey acoustics of "Running Knees". Green Day and 90s grunge troopers Silverchair also have songs featured on the soundtrack, which rounds out with a couple of scores from the film.

I can't believe how stupid people are, when this movie came out people whined about it for various reasons. Some said well it doesn't look like the old Godzilla, ok it would have been nice but they set out for it to look more like a lizard not a man in a costume, and this is easily better than any corny Japanese Godzilla movies, which I enjoy as well but let's be realistic. As far as the Soundtrack it's good but not great, more around 3 1/2 stars but since some idiots on here reviewed the movie not the soundtrack it deserves more than 3 stars. Good tracks by Fuel, Green Day, Days of the New and others and the last two tracks from the score were good as well.

I'm going to grade the album and not the movie. The album was actually pretty good...not perfect, but not many soundtracks are. Puff Daddy (now P. Diddy or is it just Diddy now?) does a decent job with the theme song, but the biggest standout is the remix for 'Brain Stew' by Green Day...AWSOME SONG! The original was great, the remix is better. Although not a band I was ever into, The Wallflowers were big at the time and thus got top billing on the soundtrack, and they actually hit a good note with 'Heroes'. Ben Folds Five is always a favorite and with killer tracks from the likes of RATM and Jamiroquai it's no wonder this album was a big seller. Days of the New, Fuel and The Foo Fighters all even out the playing list with great contibutions and the score by David Arnold is actually a welcomed addition. This is actually a very enjoyable album showcasing the best new talent of the late 90's.

Average Rating:

Godzilla's return to the big screen mixes old and new; this monster of a flick infuses '90s special effects into the classic tale of a lizard gone awry. In effect, the movie's soundtrack embraces a similar resurrection: established artists either breathing new life into well-worn tunes or showcasing exclusive tracks and new lineups...

Reviews

Best animated, I love because I grew up watching this cartoon even though only lasted few episodes, Godzilla is the man! My son loves it he is a die hard fan of the big guy and Godzooky adds a lot of fun to the series.

great products for you too buy and great services offered to you. fast shipping to you.

I've been a fan of this series since I was little. Personally, I think just about any fan would enjoy this, especially if you like cartoons.

This DVD is called "Godzilla: The Original Animated Series Volume 3." This DVD contains 5 episodes of the 1970s Hanna Barbera Godzilla cartoon. They are: Island Of Lost Ships - The Sirens, creatures from ancient greek mythology, sing their beautiful, hypnotic music, which causes Captain Majors to strand the Calico and its passengers on an island. The Magnetic Terror - A giant turtle-like monster keeps getting bigger and bigger as it feeds on energy. Captain Majors and Brock are very brave in this one, as they are willing to sacrifice their lives in order to save the world from this monster. The Breeder Beast - A giant slug-like creature threatens to cause a nuclear explosion and destroy the world. The Sub-Zero Terror - The crew of the Calico discovers a group of abominable snowman-like creatures, plus another similar creature which is much larger. The Time Dragons - Godzilla and the crew of the Calico travel back in time to when dinosaurs were still alive. I love this show, and with this release and the 2 previous ones, all 13 episodes from the first season are now available on DVD. However, there was also a second season with 13 more episodes, and none of those are available on DVD. I hope they will be released, because I love this show and I would buy them. Season 2 has "Calico Clones," which is my favorite episode of the series, as well as "Microgodzilla" and "Island Of Doom," which are also among the best episodes of the series.

I remember watching this cartoon when I was young. I have always loved Godzilla and so I took this cartoon. As an adult I purchased this DVD (I have the previous 2 as well) knowing that it wasn't the best made cartoon but to relive some of the older cartoons that I did enjoy. If you have a young child that is into Godzilla and monsters then they will probably like this cartoon.
