A Good Entry, Jan 17 2005
This review is from: Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla (DVD)
"Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla" is a completely enjoyable Godzilla movie, and, in terms of quality, probably the best of the 1970s Godzilla movies. Though aspects of it (like the silver-suited monkey aliens who want to destroy the world with the title mechanical Godzilla clone) are laughable, and the pacing is a bit uneven, the film feels a lot grittier and more mature than some of the previous entries. The monster fight scenes with Godzilla, Mechagodzilla, King Caeser (a rather bad idea for a monster, unfortunately), and, briefly, Angillas, are enjoyable as always, and things are a bit more lively than usual.
The DVD from Columbia Tristar is nothing short of a revealation. The film's brownish-red color palette looks brighter, clearer, and sharper than it has since probably its original theatrical release. Purists will be happy to know that, like Tristar's other recent Godzilla releases, both the Japanese and English-dubbed tracks are included. There are no extras other than some trailers (including one for Tristar's entire line of Godzilla movies and another for the Godzilla cartoon show).

NO MATCH FOR MECHAGODZILLA, Mar 21 2004
This movie is one my favorite godzilla movies of all time.Talking about a good challenge I mean Mechagodzilla is godzilla ultimate rilvary in my opinion.This has a lot of monster action and mechagodzilla has alot of firing power that is hardly unbelieveable.We introdue King Seesar a guardian of the
people that really has no special skills except reflect.But godzilla is really cool but that costume was really lame he looks
to much like a puppy.but overal this G flick rocks.
