Movie Reviews of Godzilla - Final Wars
Movie Review: This is very good, maby not to some...
Summary: 5 Stars
to many Godzilla fans, this is a mix movie and its both good and bad at the same time.
I thought this movie was awesome and very strange but in a good way and that they should be like this more often in the near future when he comes back into cinimas. the many "rip-offs" are mostly homeages to the directors favorate movies and i found that realy cool. and to many Godzilla fans like my self, it had little easter eggs to our favorate Godzilla movies and found that was very cool of him to put in.
the only bad thing I found in the movie was the short monster fights and maby a little to much people time, but other then that I did not mind and I found the actors in this movie to be quite enjoyable.
this was a great movie and liked it very much and watch alot. Godzilla never looked better and was great to see the classic monsters such as Rodan, Manda, etc. and its always fun to watch Godzilla trash GINO. and also i found the soundtrack to the movie awesome and that putting "were all to blame" by Sum41 (one of my favorate rock bands) in the movie with the Godzilla/GINO scene cool.
this is a great Godzilla flick and i think people should give it a try or at least rent it first before buying because some my not like it, but i think alot of people find this movie quite fun to watch.
Movie Review: A refreshing mix of old kaiju style and a new action attitude
Summary: 5 Stars
When I read the mixed reviews for this film I figured I'd either love it or hate it. Well, put me in the LOVE IT category.
This film is different from most kaiju movies because it's more of an action adventure story than a man vs. monster tale. And there's plenty of action going on, including a great scene where five mutant commandoes take on a giant roach (Megalon in his first appearance in decades for all you fanboys out there). There's some neat wu shu martial arts stuff, and a pretty decent story, too.
But of course, it always comes down to the monsters in a film like this. And I think they did a terrific job of showcasing a huge cast of creatures. True, most don't last very long against Godzilla, but that's part of the melding of genres. Here, Godzilla is an action star and his opponents are just the minions to get in his way until he faces King Ghidora at the end. It's worth it. And cool to see so many familiar monsters popping up. My personal fave is King Caesar, who is transformed into a sorta kung fu kaiju.
I guess not every Godzilla fan will like this film, so I advise renting it before deciding if you want to add it to your collection. But for me, this is a must own.
Movie Review: Most fun film I've watched in a long time!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have just really gotten into Anime (I love Golgo 13) and now back into "Creature Double Feature" films. The best Classic Creature films were always the ones featuring Godzilla.
This modern-day Godzilla film was alot of fun to watch. The effects for this film were awesome! So much fire power and explosions going off! I don't just like a film for effects and action, but this one ruled by far with regards to this!
The story made sense and the acting was good. Though it was a full 2 hour film, there were no "boring moments"--the film flowed very well with the action and story ark. The soundtrack was also impressive throughout the film. This film had it all for a Godzilla flick with both old and new monsters for Godzilla to fight.
This movie did feel like it was two films in one--where the last of the human race fighting the aliens along with the humans getting Godzilla in the fight to take down the creatures unleashed on the world.
This was a very fun and stylized film and will be a DVD I will enjoy to view many times over. Young and old fans of Godzilla should really like this one--so check it out!!
Movie Review: Godzilla Smackdown
Summary: 5 Stars
Take every good Godzilla monster from the past 30 years, throw them in a wrestling ring with Godzilla in one corner and everyone else in the other, and you've got Godzilla - Final Wars.
My Godzilla collection is expansive, and almost complete. Out of the new breed of Godzilla movies (the ones I didn't grow up on), this is clearly one of the best, with perhaps Godzilla 2000 claiming that prize...but maybe that's because I got to see it in the theater...salivating...
My favorite scene in Final Wars has to be when the Americanized Godzilla (gag) shows up and dukes it out with the real deal. I think the guys in Japan were trying to make a statement when, with little effort, Godzilla puts an end to the little American runt. I was clapping.
Over all, Final Wars is fairly fast paced and very stylized. In many ways this smacks of Manga/Japanimation cartoons, but that's fine by me, because those are beautiful movies too. So, five stars for Final Wars. There's nothing better than popping in a Godzilla flick and working on novel ideas.

Movie Review: One hell of an action-packed crazy film. (NOT A KID'S REVIEW)
Summary: 5 Stars
What do you get when you add Kitamura's (director of VERSUS and AZUMI) fast-paced intense style, the Matrix, Star Wars, and Godzilla? One wild, fun film that definitely deserves a look to anyone who likes Sci-fi, Action, Adventure, and Horror films.
Highlights of this movie include:
Godzilla's face-off with battleship Gotengo
The Gotengo's intense undersea battle with a serpentine monster
Brutal fighting scene in a training facility between two soldiers
A New York cop and pimp getting wiped out by flying monster Rodan
All-out monster assault! Shanghai, Paris, Okinawa, New York, Sydney, and Arizona all under attack by tons of monsters!
Stylish motorcycle fighting scene
Many many fights between Godzilla and monsters
Sword, Kung Fu, and gun fight between the humans and aliens inside the Mothership
Climatic battle between soldier and alien
Climatic battle between Godzilla and Kaiser Ghidorah
All of Captain Douglas Gordon's badass 80s one liners
