Product Description:
Fifty years ago the Japanese Defense Forces killed Godzilla® or so they thought. When a series of terrifying natural disasters begin to plague Japan including the inexplicable offshore sinking of a U.S. submarine a mystic old man warns his nation that Godzilla® has come back to destroy Japan as revenge for all the souls lost in the Pacific War. When mere military might can not squash the monster the mystic man awakens the Holy Beasts of Yamato - King GhidorahTM Mothra® and BaragonTM sleeping giants that protected Japan in ancient times. These untamed mammoth beasts take on Godzilla® with frightening supernatural brute power that has been 2000 years in the making. Tradition and technology collide in this chilling high-tech cutting-edge fable.System Requirements: Running Time 105 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: SCI-FI/FANTASY Rating: NR UPC: 043396100145 Manufacturer No: 10014

This 2001 Godzilla feature from Japan's Toho Studios, released as part of the mighty monster's 50th anniversary, is a visually impressive and action-packed entry in the long-running franchise, but also one with a fast and loose re-interpretation of its history that may displease some stalwart fans. Writer-director Shusuke Kaneko (who previously revitalized the Gamera series) erases everything that occurred after 1954's Godzilla and re-imagines the beast as a mythical creature harboring the souls of the Japanese victims of World War II; its attack is challenged by three "Guardian Monsters": Mothra, perennial villain King Ghidorah (here reinvented as hero) and B-list player Baragon (from Frankenstein Challenges the World). The retooling, while imaginative, is supported by spectacular special effects, but the monsters' brawls (a core reason for enjoying these films) seem abbreviated, and Kaneko's script experiences awkward seismic shifts from comedy to grim drama that may befuddle longtime G-fans. Columbia-Tri-Star's DVD is widescreen and offers Dolby Digital 5.1 sound and a Japanese language track (with English subtitles) that should please viewers with an aversion to dubbing. Trailers for other Sony/Columbia sci-fi titles like the American Godzilla feature are also included. --Paul Gaita

I enojoyed this movie a lot. I thought that it was really good and did a good job of portraying Godzilla as engine of destruction. If you are a Godzilla fan and want to catch one you have never seen before this is the one for you.

Everything about this movie was totally incredible! By far one of the best godzilla's movie ever. You are not a G-fan if you don't own this movie! BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is by far the best of the Millennial series. The director has an eye for the dramatic, like when Godzilla stops as the woman screams and then starts charging up for an atomic blast-then the camera cuts away to a school and all of a sudden it's like a training film for nuclear war from the 50's. Some don't like how this Godzilla movie has a mystical plot with Godzilla being a manifestation of the people that Japan killed in WWII. This may at first seem a discrepancy, but for me it's closer ... Read More

How does one rate this film? It was good, but it was bad.
Good first: Baragon! The most underplayed, greatest monster that Toho never bothers to put in their movies... Baragon! It's always sad to get him stomped, but I was very happy that they included him in this. His color's changed a bit since the '60s, but I can't express how good it was to see him biting Godzilla's arm.
King Ghidorah was very visually impressive, even though he's a good guy (how strange) and he's got ... Read More

Out of all the g-films. This one could be forgetton. Godzilla is made of dead soldiers, he's not his own monster. One of the worst suits ever made. The actors are people you could careless about. This movie was directed by the guy who did the 90's Gamera films. That's way this mvie sucks. It's more like a Gamera film, not a Godzilla film. Final Wars is more of a Godzilla film, and alot better.
