I should note from the start that I haven't seen any others in this series but this seemed like as good a place to start as any. To my surprise, I found myself really enjoying this one. Sure, it's as cheap, cheerful and cheesy as any other Full Moon production you'd care to mention, but the difference with this one is that they've put a lot of time and effort into everything and it really shows. The human comedy is as annoyingly laboured as ever, and the acting wooden throughout, but the scenes of miniaturisation and large-scale destruction work rather well, with just the right style of CGI to suit the B-movie tone. Overall I found it an affectionate tribute to the kaiju classics of old.

Sure, this was always to be a cheesey giantess-fetish film, and Jed Rowan (The Amazing Bulk) guarantees some slocky quality. But in its genre it achieved greatness.
The story starts with a recap of the first movie, which you don't need to watch to understand what's going on here. Point is, Frida and Deidre got the superpower to grow big, but they squandered this ability to no good, but now someone sends in Mecha-Fembot to cause mayhem out of revenge, thus they need to return.
There are some sublots, running jokes and more in this 1 hour kaiju-flick, and all comes together using the best of traditions.
The crew is good at the angles, there are plenty of models to be destroyed, and while the cgi is admittedly cheap, fits in the visuals.
The pacing is good, the acting is cheesy, the humor is funny. Worth at least 8/10.
