A highlight of the Heise series that delivers both the ludicrous story and set-up with impressive effects and cool monsters.
Enjoyable battle sequences, and rhetorical monsters look great!
Some really odd choices and nationalism in this one. However, Ghidorah is always hype and Mechanical Ghidorah even more so.
An incomprehensible time travel plot plus too many characters really bring the film down, not to mention it feels more like a Showa era film
