Trivia:
This film's origin went back to 1990 with the concept Mothra Vs. Bagan. The film would include battles all across Asia in places like Shanghai and Bangkok. However, when Gojira tai Biorante (1989) failed, Toho blamed the fact that an unfamiliar monster was used and this project was put on hold to give Godzilla another shot with Gojira tai Kingu Gidora (1991). more
Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: When the larva Mothra bites Godzilla's tail in the ocean, look closely at the base of the tail as it's tossing Mothra upwards. You can clearly see the tail is a separate prop on some kind of support that has distorted it's shape - widening it unnaturally. more

Destined to be a cult classic..., 4 January 1999
8/10
Author: Mike Nugent from Regina, Canada

A classic. Edge of the seat suspense. Exceptional fight scenes. Outstanding soundtrack and voice synchronization (ala the best of Jackie Chan films). Parade float quality finish on Mothra. The complex, labyrinth-like plot wound its way through the character development. Incredible insight into the Japanese culture and into the genre itself. Plan to join in the Macarena-like Cosmos dance crazy soon to hit your local nightclub.
