Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
More visually splendid and imaginatively written than the other Godzilla sequels, this (the fourth in the series) starts when Mothra's gigantic egg washes ashore in Japan, having been dislodged from Mothra Island by a hurricane. Two tiny twin girls (sometimes singing like dual-diminutive Dorothy Lamours) from the island come to plead for the return of the egg by the greedy business guys who bought it for a tourist attraction, but to no avail. Radiation from nuclear testing revives Godzilla from the earth, who proceeds to threaten the egg and the cities, unless Mothra and his larvae hatched from the egg can stop him. The battle sequences between Mothra and Godzilla, and between Godzilla and the larvae, are spectacularly vivid and colorful. The DVD gives you a choice of cropped-frame or letterboxed in terrific Tohoscope, Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround or Mono, and some more extras. Oddly, the DVD contains no time code, so you never know how far into the movie you are at any given point. It is also available in a boxed set with four of the other best Godzilla flicks by director Inoshiro Honda. --Jim Gay

The title says it all: The world's most famous radiated iguana in a grudge match against the winged personification of nature with the planet's ecological future at stake! While lacking the major narrative advancement of the superb, previous entry (Godzilla vs. King Ghidora), this is an entrancing fantasy by any standard, with moments of genuine beauty (helped immeasurably by the exquisite score by veteran G-composer Akira Ifukube), a surprisingly effective eco-message, and a final battle in an amusement park that ranks among the very best in the series. Although three more films in the revamped cycle were made by Toho Studios, none had been released in the United States at this writing. --Andrew Wright

Mothra vs. Godzilla is one of the best Godzilla films ever. The bright colors, the excellent special effects, the monster action, and a basic, yet interesting plot all come together and make this movie what it is. This movie is just pure fun for any fan of giant monsters and/or old-school sci-fi flicks. This movie is also a lot less campy than the future films in the series. As a sci-fi film, it's four stars, but among Godzilla films, it's easily five.

This is a DVD that all collectors must have. there are two version of the film the original Japanese version in 2;35;1 and the US version as it was when it was first release as Godzilla vs the thing in 1;85;1. that is the way the US version should be shown. with its original US title intact.

The original Japanese theatrical release is remastered and looks pristine. However, this is not the case with the American English dubbed version. Classic Media should've reconsidered cleaning up the American version as one may want to watch it as an alternative to reading and concentrating on the subtitles.
Included on the dvd are features that are welcomed by die hard fans of Godzilla but personally I would've wanted interviews with stars of the film-giving their insights on the movie, ... Read More

I have said this in my past reviews of the Godzilla series, I grew up on these films and I have fond memories of watching them, but they are very juvenile. Even the Japanese versions are juvenile.....Having said that, I wish that these films were cleaned up. The print here isn't bad, but looks like there is room for much improvement. The features are quite good and considering the age of the material it is nice to see some of this stuff. I think 3 stars for any of these Godzilla movies is fair.....5 stars? ... Read More

After his giant battle with King Kong, the monster known as Godzilla returns. Only this time, he's up against a giant moth who's preventing him from attacking more civilians. In 1964, the Toho Company released the fourth movie in the Godzilla series, "Mothra vs. Godzilla." Known in the United States as "Godzilla Vs. The Thing," the film was a product of the celebrated creative team of Shinichi Sekizawa (screenplay), Ishiro Honda (human drama), and Eiji Tsuburaya (special effects). Mothra Vs. Godzlla is known ...
