Huge machines have been placed near the ocean by Tokyo. An unscrupulous developer is sucking out ocean water in order to create dry land for luxury condos. There is a big storm and a giant egg washes up on the beach nearby. A structure is built around the egg and it’s put on public display. As a consequence of the loss of the ocean water, a resting Godzilla is disturbed, he rises from the dust and he starts a rampage through Tokyo. The tiny two women (the Peanut Sisters) who sing to Mothra are asked to request the help of Mothra to fight against Godzilla.
This
film is also funny like the 1956 Godzilla with Raymond Burr and Godzilla’s back spines also glow when
he shoots fire breath. Toys are
again used to fill in for real buildings and equipment. Everyone in Tokyo is running for hours and maybe even
days!! 3 ½* (I liked this movie)
