Viewing Notes

Pretty straightforward brawl pitting Godzilla against Mechagodzilla with plenty of miniatures destruction. I love the masers in this, a nice throwback touch! There’s some pretty nice cinematography in this too; I’d guess it’s one of the films the new Hollywood Godzilla movies drew from.
