Not so good. Clearly aimed at the kiddie audience. Baby Godzilla is back, and sorry, I’m not a fan of Minilla. The way it starts, I was assuming it would be a commentary on industrialism and pollution, but that doesn’t go anywhere.
Actually, the best part of the movie is the awesome theme song:
It’s the march of the monsters!
An awesome juggernaut destroying everything in its path!
Go-Go-Godzilla fires his atomic breath
Wham! Bang! Crash! They pulverize everything!
But it ain’t easy being a monster.
Take that, Taylor Swift!
