"I knew that tuna-head wasn't up to much. Oh well, on to the next one."

I love how Godzilla’s fighting power is max in this film, we see most of all monsters in the franchise fight Godzilla again and get there shit beat in the process. Is it objectively good? Hell no but it’s still one of my favorites.

Normally, I'm sure I would have hated this film. However, the sheer amount of fun and energy they managed to squeeze into it, makes me love it so much.

I was so not a fan of this one when it first released. It wasn't so much a problem with the content itself (although I wasn't crazy about anime ninja people in a Godzilla movie), but the timing. We knew that this was going to be the final Godzilla before Toho did another hiatus, and who knew how long it would last this time? (as it turned out 12 years) In the face of such indefinite absence, I was hoping at the time the last Godzilla would be more serious, something closer to the original. Final Wars was obviously the opposite of that. So I didn't care for it one bit. These days I love watching it. Everything about it is glorious. Gimme that ridiculous shit in my veins, man.

The lore , the designs, the stories, I loved how ridiculous and fun the series was, with so many tv shows and movies taking themselves so seriously it was nice to have a series that went all out with its genre for so many films and to have so many memorable moments. Final Wars was the pinnacle and is probably my favorite, King of the Monsters I loved, it was pure fan service like Final Wars, it felt like the first american godzilla film structured like a toho film.

My favorite Godzilla movie as a kid. I loved the theme song so much

Oh man, the movie that got me into Godzilla. I saw other Godzilla movies beforehand but this was the first one I saw from start to finish. Think seeing all the different Kaiju in one movie helped cement my love for the series as a whole.

Godzilla: Final Wars is one of my favorite Godzilla movie in the Millennium series. Godzilla is 100 meters tall and portray as Anti-hero in order to save the earth of his territory from other monsters expect Mothra. Minilla is back in the final Millennium series. Minilla is my least favorite Godzilla's adoptive son.

It's a shame this suit was never used again. It's easily one of my favorite designs of Godzilla.

What can i say, this film is candy. #KazukiKitamuraRules

This was my introduction to the Godzilla franchise, and my goodness what a way to get introduced to the King of the monsters.

Final wars: the most expensive kaiju movie ever made Godzilla king of the monsters: Hold my beer

The best line: "I thought I told you to get to the ship."

It's was a blast! This movie was amazing, so much fan services. So much Joy and happiness. So much DESTRUCTION! so much Rampage.

Finally, a good review on this movie that isn't just mindless hate. Great Video!

I love how all the old characters from the showa series are back

This is probably my favorite Millenium film for how crazy and over the top it is, it's still legitimately entertaining even after so long And this movie also singlehandedly raised Gigan to #2 in my list of favorite kaiju sorely because of his new design/abilities

I really like how you manage to find a silver lining in the truly ridiculous. Love your reviews, all of them. Almost as entertaining as an actual kiju film.

This was, and still is, my favorite Godzilla movie. The campiness combined with the frequent, quick, and brutal fights are so fun. With every monster in the franchise being brutally slaughtered once again like bugs by Godzilla, it shows how far he’s come as a character. The CGI has a certain charm to it. The over the top characters make it all the better. Gotta love it.

it doesnt make sense but this is and always has been my favorite godzilla film

It was a fitting way to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the franchise. Great to see the sea monster, Smog Monster, King Cesar too. Also fun to see the pathetic Zilla get stomped in a hurry.

I've been watching this channel for about a month now, this video finally won me over, I wish I could subscribe multiple times, you deserve more subscribers

The reason why Director Kitamura cast Don Frye as the lead actor, with Gary Goodridge and Ray Sefo in a cameo appearance, is that Kitamura loved MMA. Also, this movie reminds me of the Energizer bunny commercial, “Nothing beats the King of the Monsters, Godzilla, it keeps going and going ... “🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The fast food burger analogy sums it up perfectly. Some times you just want a big, greasy, tasty whopper. Is it quality? No. Do I love it? Yes.

Good to see your channels picking up man :) congrats on 3k!

To quote a Cosmonaut Variety Hour review of Fast and Furious franchise: "logic is just screenwriting limitation". And I think the creators of Final Wars took this to heart. And I love this movie for it :)

I can’t stop watching your videos they are amazing

I liked Tokyo S.O.S. so I’m confused how it performed at a record low

Love the channel! I absolutely love Godzilla: Final Wars. One of my favorite Godzilla movies. Just so ridiculously over the top. This, along with 1974's Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla, and 2019's King of the Monsters are some of my favorite entries in the series.

Excellent review. I remember sitting down to watching this with my family (I was the only Godzilla fan so I had more appreciation than they did lol) keep up the good work!

YES FINALLY, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! All the Destruction!!!!

I love this film, even though it's overflowing with content it's the most fun of all the G movies. Gigan and Ghidorah reach new levels of epicness in this one, when I saw they chose this version of Gigan for the game I was ecstatic

I love this channels name! I just had a talk with one of my teachers two days ago. I talked about wanting to see the new Godzilla movie, she said she’d never seen any of the movies but she saw the Saturday morning cartoon she then said “up from the depths, 30 stories high.” I said it along with her, I was such a Godzilla nut as a kid I got the dvd to the cartoon and I remembered the words. I love final wars, ironically it was my introduction to Godzilla even though it was the last movie at the time.

"Isn't that the monster the Americans thought was godzilla?" My favorite quote from the movie and and absolute burn to the American production.

“equivalent to a burger from your favorite fast food joint” absolutely, couldn’t have said it any better than that

You know I met someone at g fest this year...

"This is the last one...for real this time...we promise"

Godzilla, the most unstoppable enemy that humans had ever faced.

Wow this is one of my favorite godzilla movies and I think it is kinda slow but the amount of monsters is amazing

Ya know... for a movie running at two hours that was meant to be the last Godzilla movie for a decade as well as commemorating 50 years of Godzilla, there wasn’t much Godzilla until well over a hour into the plot. It’s different with G 2014 because a CGI Godzilla movie is tremendously expensive, millions more than the old traditional Toho way.

I've been waiting for this! One of my favorite Godzilla movies and was the second Godzilla movie I bought on DVD (Godzilla 1998 was my first Godzilla movie).

I think the TriStar Godzilla was thrown in just to show how insignificant he is against the real Godzilla.

A very entertaining yet crazy movie. Totally agree. Oh and I especially loved how Zilla got wrecked while SR-71 plays in the background. lol

Final Wars is proof that people don't know how to have fun anymore

There is one thing I love about final wars. Finally Goji is so unstopable that we get to watch him straight up beast mode EVERYONE

This is Tied with Godzilla vs Destroyah as my favorite Godzilla movie

This movie is absolutely insane and the song during Kazama's sacrifice is a perfect amalgamation of that. I Love This Movie Plot and logic? Hell no.

When it comes to my movie library I have this thing I like to call my Top Shelf. This is because it is in a cabinet separate from where I keep my other movies. The movies I put there are movies I could watch repeatedly all day and not get board. Final Wars is a part of that. With all the Godzilla movies I like though, well let's just say I need a bigger shelf. However, no matter what Final Wars will always be a part of my Top Shelf. How much did I like it? Take a gooooood look at my avatar

This was the first godzilla I saw in theatres and to this day is still my favorite suit, love it!

Once Godzilla reaches it's *100th Anniversary* , Toho will create an ultimate series of Godzilla and other Kaiju movies called the *MEGAVERSE* (A combination of *all* of the Godzilla series including the *Monsterverse* )!!!!

This and GMK are the crown jewel of the entire Godzilla franchise. Watch these two films back to back with some beers and you got yourself a good night.

Godzilla final wars is kinda like endgame. It wasn’t just a movie. It was an event.

This the most ridiculously over the top movie ever and I fucking love it.

Zilla getting stomped by GODZILLA was the main reason I watched this movie and it did not disappoint. :D

One of Final Wars' missteps was the score by Keith Emerson. Years ago, a fan rescored much of the film with Akira Ifukube's themes and pieces from various movies, and it was glorious and so, so perfect.

This is, by far, the most bombastic Godzilla film I’ve ever seen. I love it

Great work man.

This may be one of my favorite movie ever made. It has everything i love combined in one movie

This one was also originally going to be a sequel to Destoroyah, following the grown-up Godzilla Jr. from the ending of that film. They even started building the models expecting Godzilla to be the same size as the Heisei era (100 meters tall) before Toho just decided to make it another stand-alone film. Also, I wish they could have integrated Jet Jaguar in the movie. My idea was that he would have been built by the military (similar to Kiryu) and maybe even take down one of the weaker monsters like Ebirah or whatever, but then immediately get destroyed by Gigan (since they fought each other in the Showa era)

This movie is a blast. It dares you to think, but not in a good way. Don’t think, just strap yourself to the Rollercoaster and laugh maniacally all the way through. It’s what I do. Definitely in my top 5. It’s absolutely bonkers

I like he says "routinely ravaged by monsters"

Godzilla 2004 is probably one of the best if not my favorite suit design of the franchise.

I will always say this; I would rather watch an entertaining movie that's not very good or has it's flaws, over a slow, boring, slick looking movie that thinks it's smarter than what it is. By 2004, what could they do? Re-make the original, or try and simply reboot another classic villain for the screen? Nah, just throw all the Godzilla tropes in a blender, add some western action movie influence (Works for John Woo and the Chinese action flicks, why not Japan?) and just go to town with it. This movie knows what it's doing, it's entertaining and celebrating 50 years of Godzilla and for 2 hours of your life, it's not that much to exchange.

I just saw this movie for the first time two days ago. As some of you know ordering the DVDs or Blu-ray is about the only way we can get that some of the Japan movies now. I have watched everything HBO Max has to offer. The way you describe this movie at the beginning of the video is exactly how I felt and I loved it! This felt like Godzilla destroy all monsters meets Star Wars meets the matrix.

As a 6 year old, this was my all time favorite Godzilla movie. Everything about it was so over the top (Which I could tell even then) that I loved it. I usually got tired out right by the final act and never actually remember watching the finale. I consider it a trainwreck of a movie, but so entertaining and fun that it is in my top 5.

GIIIIIIIIGGAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!RISE!!!!!

The legendary saga concludes here.

I LOVE this film and see it as a Celebration...a party, if you will. After all, as an anniversary, time to celebrate, right? If I had to guess, that was probably the intent. Anyone who thinks it's too frantic/energetic/wild, should realise Gojira is just a 'small' part of an entire tokusatsu genre...which often is exactly this frenetic/energetic/wild. Final Wars is more in line with the main tokusatsu genre IMHO (which is fine by me)

For the most part I have to agree with you, although the last scene in which Minila and the boy get Godzilla and the humans to stop fighting is a personal favorite of mine.

This is my favorite Godzilla movie of all time. While it has its weak points I loved every second of it. The suit was the one of the most intimidating Godzilla designs, with only Shin and the original beating it out. This is not a complex, thought provoking film in the slightest, but dang it, it was a fun experience from start to finish. 9.99/10

Final Wars was my reintroduction to Godzilla after the 1998 tri-star film rofl. This was the film that got me hyped for 2014 and made me go see the 1954 film + others along with Pacific rim.

The two best Godzilla films: Gojira 1954 Godzilla Final Wars. Gojira 54 is The Godfather of the series. Godzilla Final Wars is the Scarface of the series. The two are a blast!
