Great one!, 29 June 2005

Author: Movie Nuttball from U.S.A.

I am a huge Godzilla fan, I grew up with Godzilla, I just love seeing this awesome monster just destroy cities and fighting other monsters. I like his enemies as well but Godzilla is the Icon!

This Godzilla film is a great one. The story is very good and I really love the way Godzilla looks in this film. I love it when he roars and moves his tail. The big G is joined by Minilla and they are great and I love it when they roar as well! As for their enemies Kamakiras and Kumonga they too is awesome. I love it when they roars. The fights between the monsters is really good. The acting by the film's human stars are also good. The music is just excellent! I really love this Godzilla film for many reasons and its arguably the best! If you love Godzilla I strongly recommend that you do what I did and buy The Son of Godzilla today!
