Even by the standards of the Godzilla universe, this makes no sense at all. Untroubled by such questions, Godzilla, Rodan and Mechagodzilla work at levelling Osaka and each other. It's not the best action in the series, but far from the worst.

Have I mentioned that Mechagodzilla is the best thing ever? Because he is.

With so little connective tissue of note, the monster scenes feel airless and aimless, existing solely as generic spectacle without context or weight.

The script seamlessly combines the story of human beings with the more operatic story of the godlike beasts.
