Although Godzilla doesn't really cut it in the special effects department, he does have a certain lumbering charm. So does the script.

The overall tone of Godzilla vs. Gigan skews a little more childish than usual. It has the same sugar-buzz 9-year-old-boy energy that makes the series so appealing, but it seems a little less focused.

Among the most efficient and exciting of the series since the 1954 original.

This one takes awhile to get going, but as payoff you get Godzilla and Anguiras fighting new enemy Gigan and Ghidorah on one of the series' most unique battlefields: a Godzilla-themed amusement park.
