Destroy All Monsters (1969)

Godzilla DESTROY ALL MONSTERS, is an OK film, it's got long boring scenes featuring the humans in which it's all "Talk, talk, talk." And has very little monster action until the end in which we see all our favourite of the time monsters team up to fight the evil King Ghidorah. It's the only scene in the film I recommend. Varan and Baragon, even though they're in the film they don't get enough screen time and as I also should mention this was meant to be the last Godzilla movie and so I'd like to say...The Movie is really MEH on my opinion; it's just the end battle scene that I enjoy the most. So, to cut things short, I give this film a 8/10. I still can recommend the whole entire film, but keep in mind there's tons of scenes involving the humans in which they're standing around talking and then going off to do something and continuing to do more things which to them are very important but for me, they feel long and stretched out... Still 8/10. Just skip to the end battle scene.

In 1968, Toho had so many popular monsters in their arsenal that they decided to produce one of the greatest ideas in monster movie history! This is my review on Destroy all monsters The plot goes like this; All of earth's giant monsters are captured and contained by the people of earth on a small island off Japan. However, aliens swoop down from the skies and set the monsters lose on the world. As they destroy the major cities, the people of JApan must come up with a plan to stop this alien threat.Godzilla has been in A lot of good movies but this one is at the top of the list.Let's start with the story. I have to say, I really enjoyed the plot. It wasn't to deep or mind-boggling, but it was quite interesting with a couple of plot twists here and there. Most of the movie centres around the human's efforts to stop the alien plot. While the story is interesting, it does sag a little, but that is not why we watch Godzilla movies, nor does it degrade this monster flick.Now onto the monsters. Never has there been such a great monster crossover gathering in all movie history. Rodan, Mothra, Varan, Manda, Baragon,Kumonga, Anguirus, Gorosaurus and King Ghidorah all show up in this huge picture, each with their own unique abilities. Mothra shoots webs, Anguirus spikes his enemies, Gorosaurus with his classic flying kick- the list goes on. My only disappointment is that baragon and varan don't make a big appearance. I was hoping they would join in at the end, but they didn't.At the end, one of the best monster rumbles in movie history goes flat out, with heat rays, webs and other monsters going every where. The three headed Dragon ,King Ghidorah , shows up to wipe out earths monsters and gets a "warm" welcome. The fight is huge and it still makes me think how they did some of the effect, which thankfully isn't CGI.One of the best monster movies in history that assembles all the greatest monsters of all time. They should do it again, without CGI and a lot more monsters for us to sink our teeth into. In my opinion, it's the perfect movie to watch with a younger viewer, particularly if you have a son. Just sit down and enjoy this cheesy action romp.Im giving it a 10/10

This monster ensemble movie is one of the best Godzilla movies of all time, in my opinion. The more monsters, the better, and this movies has A LOT of them. Some I hadn't even heard of before, which made me seek out some other unknown movies to watch. I also liked the fact that they had scenes from different parts of the world. Anyway, it's great with lots of monsters, but the special effects have to be good to make the scenes decent. For being made in 1968, I think they were acceptable (hadn't been OK today, though). The last scene was good fun, and also had some surprises. Kaiju fans and Godzilla fans won't be disappointed here. My verdict is 6 out of 10.
