    Godzilla Raids Again, a poor sequel to the original Gojira story-wise, though the frenetic monster battle and model work is excellent. There's a lot of tension and no story. Flipping the disc meant also watching the stupidly edited US version in which Godzilla is called Gigantus, the dubbing creates totally absurd dialogue, and the insertion of stock footage makes it look like the Ed Wood edit. It's unintentionally hilarious, and the commentary track makes sure to laugh at it a lot. 7 years 4 months ago

    I watched the original Japanese version which doesn't have the added stock footage, stock music, or narration of the American version - in other words the better version. A better version of a mediocre film. Big G meets his first monster foe; Anguirus, the spiny hedgehog/ankylosaurus beastie. The battles play out against a lackluster plot of relationships in a fish cannery. The battles themselves are are different from the usual ponderous posturing of later Godzilla movies, the monsters really tear into each other. 11 years 3 months ago
