The best Godzilla movie is the Godzilla remake from 1998. If you think otherwise there is nothing wrong with you. If you are mad about it there is something wrong with you. Get help you tyrant pig. This is a very good movie. It is the seventh Godzilla movie. It is also the fourth M.o.t.h.r.a movie. It is not as good as Godzilla vs M.o.t.h.r.a. That's the second M.o.t.h.r.a movie and the fourth Godzilla movie. The fifth M.o.t.h.r.a movie which would also be the ninth Godzilla movie titled Destroy all monsters is better. The sixth M.o.t.h.r.a movie which would also be the 12th Godzilla movie is called Godzilla vs G.i.g.a.n is also better. This is still a very entertaining movie. See it. See all the M.o.t.h.r.a movies. Most of the Godzilla movies are very good to. See this movie it's great.
Seventh Godzilla picture sees the big guy being re-awakened by young castaways who became stranded on an island whose local population is being used as slave labor by a terrorist organization called Red Bamboo, who are trying to escape the clutches of a giant lobster named Ebirah. Mothra also appears to help out, as the Red Bamboo are in for a really rough time... Change of pace entry is set away from the cities for a change, which was welcome, and the story is most enjoyable, although Ebirah never quite caught on like other Toho studio monsters did (for whatever reason). Last appearance of the "Twin Fairies"( played by new actresses as well.)
After two clashes with Ghidorah, Godzilla takes an island vacation for some much needed rest. Unfortunately, his sleep at Letchi Island is short-lived. Terrorist organization Red Bamboo has enslaved the natives of the neighboring Infant Island to make a liquid repellent that holds off Ebirah, a giant lobster. Any attempt to escape is met with severe penalties, mainly being fed to Ebirah, who has an insatiable appetite for islanders. A group of friends sailing the South Pacific arrive at Letchi Island and soon find Godzilla sleeping in a cave. To combat the Red Bamboo, they wake up Godzilla who is not happy about his disturbed sleep.Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster (1966) marks a shift in the Godzilla Showa series. Gone are the city-stomping scenes. To cut model and pyrotechnic costs, the setting was changed to a tropical island. The Godzilla suit from Invasion of the Astro Monster was reused and after much water and pyrotechnic damage it looks a little worse for wear, particularly in the scene when Godzilla attacks the Red Bamboo's base. Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster was also the first film since Godzilla Raids Again (1955) to not be directed by Inoshiro Honda. This time the directing reigns went to Jun Fukuda, who makes his directorial debut in the series. Masaru Sato returns to score his first Godzilla film since Godzilla Raids Again as well. The score sounds like a combination of early James Bond music and The Ventures, so Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster was definitely a change in style from the previous installments. This is one of the more under-rated Godzilla flicks. You could do a lot worse than Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster.
I never thought I would find a Godzilla movie where Godzilla was the weakest part of the film. In most these movies, the various scenes not involving Godzilla could generally be considered filler. They're there to pad out the film until Godzilla shows up and usually aren't very good. The filler in Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster isn't any better or worse than any of the other Godzilla movies (though I must admit to enjoying the James Bond vibe and the groovy dance party), but it's better than Godzilla's moments on the screen. The problem is that Big G doesn't get the chance to do much. This is Toho "on the cheap". The usual rampage through the city is gone. It was cheaper to have Godzilla destroy a mostly deserted island with only a small science/military facility than it was to build an entire city of miniatures. And the few miniatures to be found don't even looks up to snuff. When not trampling the cheap miniatures, Godzilla spends an inordinate amount of time just sitting. That right sitting! And when he does finally do battle with the sea monster of the title, it's not much of a match. In no time at all, Godzilla rips off the overgrown lobster's claws and its over. Almost 90 minutes to see this non-event what a waste!
