Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah 1991 Review
29 April 2021
"You say that you can feel Godzilla?" "Yes, whenever I close my eyes I see him as clearly as if he was walking right in front of me." Me too Miki ... me too.

Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah by itself is a great Godzilla origins movie, but you also get some great King Ghidorah action on top of it!

This film goes back to its more goofier roots with UFO's, androids, and time traveling.

The pacing was this films weakest link, it felt extremely long. The first hour of this film heavily drags but then quickens up the pace in the final 40 minutes with one of the best final fights i've seen from this franchise so far. It nearly had me cheering at my TV.

The tone also felt very conflicting. On one side we had the heartfelt stuff with Shindo that pulled at my heart strings, and on the other side we had that laughable chase scene with M-11. Those two scenes in contrast with each other can be jarring to say the least.

Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah definitely isn't the best Godzilla film, but what it lacks in its pacing it makes up for with some great characters and an amazing final fight.
