YOUR RATING

This sixth film in the Heisei series introduced audiences to the all-new and awesome addition to Toho's roster of monsters. The film continues the Heisei tradition of introducing updated and new monsters such is the case with M.O.G.E.R.A. (Mobile Operation Godzilla Expert Robot A-type) and the new design for Little Godzilla (seen in the previous film as Baby Godzilla). But it will take the one and only Godzilla to save Little Godzilla and our planet from certain destruction!

Trivia
This film features MOGUERA, a remake of the robot kaiju from Prisonnières des Martiens (1957). For the 90's version, Toho also comes up with a legitimate way for the mech to be called MOGUERA as it is an acronym for Mobile Operation G-Force Universal Expert Robot Areo-type.

Goofs
While Spacegodzilla is telepathically levitating Little Godzilla, strings holding Little Godzilla can be seen.

Quotes
Lt. Koji Shinjo: [after Miki levitates a stretcher] What was that?
Miki Saegusa: Telekinesis.
Lt. Koji Shinjo: Tele what?
Miki Saegusa: I just never tried it before.

Alternate versions
In the fight on Birth Island, SpaceGodzilla traps LittleGodzilla in a crystal prism. A shot of Godzilla trying unsucessfully to free his son from the crystal cage, which would have better explained why Godzilla heads for Japan to confront SpaceGodzilla, was omitted.

I liked Dr. Gondo

This Godzilla movie was a vast improvement over its previous version "Godzilla vs Mecha Godzilla II". I liked the plot, and I especially liked the fact that new monster worthy of Godzilla was introduced here instead of old monsters (especially Mothra and King Gidorah) being recycled into its plot. Cinematography was good, and the way Godzilla was depicted in this movie had freshness to it with Godzilla shown in a scene with actually existing landscapes like Mt. Aso in Kyushu.

The actors were mostly all new to this movie, and they were better actors than those in the earlier series. If there's one actor that I don't understand why she's in it is Megumi Odaka(Miki Saegusa). She has no expression, and just stands there and talks the dialog, and she's in every single Godzilla movie made in the '90s. The actor I liked the most was Dr. Gondo. The plot is that her brother was killed by Godzilla. Toho should work more on casting with these movies. They could easily bring up the quality of production couple of notches (as '90s Gamera series proved with rented talent from Toho doing special effects and directing).
