Junior actually looks like his father, can hold his own in a fight (at least by Godzilla vs Destroyah), and is actually adorable. Plus he actually makes cute noises, not high-pitched screeching that makes your ears bleed.

Best movie in the whole series for me. Great action, outstanding special effects, simple but memorable story, great characters, and an amazing score. Oh yeah and I’m a little biased towards my favorite Kaiju, the Heisei Mechagodzilla.

Kizumi has to be one of my favorites among the humans in these movies. He played the goofy character well while not making him seem stupid or incompetent. And I loved the turnaround from Mecha Godzilla being the war engine of an invasion force to being Japan's first real bid to face Godzilla on equal footing. And the idea that this quantum leap in technology came about by reverse engineering 24th century tech makes sense. It's much easier to make something once you figure out how it was made. Plus the continued use of synthetic diamonds in anti-G measures is nice through line the Heisei movies.

Excellent review, this is my favorite Godzilla film of all time! I love it to death! It's highly entertaining and has a very compelling story. Watching this review I was like "Finally, someone who gets it!" You've earned my subscription.

GvMGII is definitely the high point of the Heisei films. I had no idea that they intended for this to be the end but I'm glad they kept going.

The final scene with Godzilla and Godzilla Junior was melancholic and tugs my heart cause you know Destoroyah will soon arrive.

It took me a long time to watch this one, for the longest time I wasn't sure if it would be worth watching because MG looked weird and I was afraid Rodan was going to be an afterthought and just a filler. But when I finally watched it I was relieved to see I was wrong and wished I watched it sooner, the drama was perfect and the fights were beautifully done, each Kaiju was given the utmost respect

I am a lifelong G-Fan and this one always gets me with those broad strokes of wisdom. I can show this one to people who claim they would never watch a Godzilla movie. Sho nuff, when it gets to the scene where Baby gets left behind, said people end up feeling guilty they had to choke back a tear. All three Okawara G-films are high water marks for the entire G-film series.

While Godzilla 1998 will remain as my favorite Godzilla movie, super Mechagodzilla is 2nd place on my list of favorite kaiju. Godzilla 1998 and super Mechagodzilla are my favorites because of their 90s feel, you can tell these were made in the 90s just by looking at them.

I love this movie. It has the best Mechagodzilla in my opinion, good monster scenes, beautiful score... pretty much anything good about the Heisei series is here. Great movie, 9/10.

It's got all five stars from me and if anyone disagrees with me I will fight them.

Definitely my 3rd or 4th favorite in the Heisei series. I absolutely adore Baby Godzilla and how he actually resembles his father (unlike Minilla), and this incarnation of Rodan has won my heart. Yes, he's small and he got the short-end of the stick even with his Fire form, but he never stopped fighting to protect his little brother (Baby), even against impossible odds. He was the underdog of this film.

One of my favorites. Top 5, love the Heisei series Also your reviews are very entertaining and remind me of Cinemassacres Godzilla-Thon

What I loved about this movie was the fact Akria Ikfube brought back my favorite godzilla theme, the Mothra Vs Godzilla 1964 godzilla theme. Minus a few twists, I always loved that fact.

This was my 2nd most watched Godzilla movie growing up, next to "Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah." My parents taped it off the TV for me when it aired on the SciFi Channel (Now called "Syfy") and I watched it ALL the time! Mostly because it was one of the very few Godzilla movies I had on video at the time. This, and the 1956 version of "Godzilla, King of the Monsters", were the only two Godzilla movies I had on VHS as a kid (Both taped off the TV). It wasn't until recent years when I finally bought all of my favorite Godzilla movies on DVD off eBay, following the hype of "Godzilla 2014."

Don't mind me, just gonna binge watch your Godzilla reviews.

The title sequence of this movie is unbelievably awesome. It beats all other movies just by that reason.

Eehhh... both are great in their own way... can't realy say which i prefer

In regards to Miki suddenly having a change in character regarding Godzilla, they did a pretty good job building it up throughout the Heisei series. Her psychic bond with Godzilla and later Godzilla Junior makes her empathize with Godzilla, as she sees the tragedy within his origin and she understands why he is the way he is. They had a few moments in Godzilla vs King Ghidorah and Godzilla vs Mothra where you can see her showing concern for Godzilla's well-being, and that built up to being a pivotal plot point in this film.

I have this movie, along with all of the millennium Godzilla movies. Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla 2 was pretty good, but not as good as the 1974 Version, wish the pacing was better, and I wish it had more substance to what it was trying to achieve. Despite that it was still a worthy entry to the heisei franchise. Give it a 6.8/10

So perfect that it still only got 4 stars? Im confused.

The U.N.G.C.C. (United Nations Godzilla Countermeasure Center) recovers the remains of Mecha-King Ghidorah and construct Mechagodzilla as a countermeasure against Godzilla. Meanwhile, a giant egg is discovered along with a new monster called Rodan. The egg is soon found to be none other than an infant Godzillasaurus.

This was the first Godzilla film I saw, and the one that introduced me to the kingdom of the Godzilla.

As much as I enjoyed G84, Biollante, King Ghidorah, & Destoroyah as a kid, this was my favorite Godzilla movie from the Heisei series. It may not be in my Top 5, but it's most definitely in my Top 10.

The fight between Godzilla and Rodan is one of the best of the heisei series, it was more physical than the other heisei movies where it's all laser beams and explosions

Through the years, this Rodan has really grown on me. I still prefer the 1956 one as far as the design goes, but the character depiction regarding its personality is really well done in this one. He’s a rogue, but a rogue with a heart who ends up (SPOILER ALERT) being the one who makes the ultimate sacrifice.

But in Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla 2, he's - somehow - back! He has slimmed down shoulders and slimmer legs. He's also raising a blue-toned baby Godzilla. This time he's defeated when his butt-brain is destroyed, but he's easily revitalized just moments later.

0:07 lol the scale of the water around Godzilla in these old movies really always gave away his actual scale, which is normal human-sized 😂. Thats where a CGi Godzilla has the edge.

One of the best main themes in the franchise I love mecah Godzilla's theme.

My PERSONAL favorite Godzilla movie!! Not the best overall, that belongs to Gojira (1954). But this movie is everything to me! The kaiju, the soundtrack, the story, everything about this movie I love! Every time MechaGodzilla turns into Super MechaGodzilla gives me chills every time!

Easily in my Top 5 list of best Godzilla movies. The plot is tightly woven, the kaiju action is superb, and Baby Godzilla actually works as a character.

Thanks for the insightful vid!

Leaving a like & a comment because I love your channel & miss your dulcet tones, Brandon!

This is the best of the "vs films" for me honestly. The monsters look great, the story flows well, and the human characters felt more competent and likable than most entries this time around and each served a purpose. Their loss in the first fight was a loss yes, but showed where they needed to improve that could only have been determined after a fight with Godzilla, and the second they won fair and square but just didn't count on Rodan giving his essence. Add that to a good Baby Godzilla and some great action scenes and you've got a great entry.

This is the pinnacle of humanity and is the best movie of all time

Is my favorite Heisei movie.

I think rodans stiff look when he is flying is realistic, the largest birds can fly with out flapping their wings for hours, it's not a stretch that rodan doesn't need to flap his wings very much

This version of Mechagodzilla could be used for so many bodybuilding memes. "Never skipped leg day" or "bro do you even lift?" immediately come to mind.

It's so damn good! Wataru Mimura's script delivers a more nuanced, empathetic take on Godzilla, the story is compelling with inventive set-pieces and engaging characters. Plus Megumi Okada enjoys arguably her finest hour. Sure the original Mecha-G remains the superior design, but Baby Godzilla is a great character. All in all a first rate kaiju eiga.

I wish they changed the title because technically Terror of Mechagodzilla is the second time they fought.

This one is a complete GEM! The epic Rodan fight, Godzilla turning the tables on MG, Godzilla almost loosing in the end.... it's amazing and the best of the era IMO. It kinda borderlines on Kaiju torture-pron with some of epic damage done by MG, MG is more like a GIGANTIC Super X 2 and they feed baby godzilla a hamburger after saying he's a vegetarian..... but I love it anyways! Please if you get turned of by others of this era, still gives this one a watch!

Love the Hesei series. I prefer to watch it in abridged form though. 85/RoG->vs.Biollantee->vs.King Ghidorah->vs.MechaGodzilla2->vs.Destoroyah. You can skip Mothra and Space Godzilla and not really miss much. Fine movies but Godzilla’s really a side character in vs.Mothra. SpaceGodzilla, while having a cool design, just seems like filler.

Fire Rodan was badass!

This was my first Heisei Godzilla film. One of my favourites. Mechagodzilla's design never really bothered me. He's not supposed to look menacing. What bothered me was the fact that this Mechagodzilla was purely range attack and had zero melee abilities. Showa Mechagodzilla, while having quite an arsenal, could still hold his own in a melee fight. I guess Heisei Mechagodzilla represents the Heisei era and it's beam spamming that it's known for.

Personally, i found Rodan to be a big puppet. Watch the original Rodan movie with the twins...or ghe mates... Anyway, THIS rodan could not compare in all flight scenes The original always looked best. This one didnt look natural when landing and it was obvious his strings were blurred out in various scenes. As for Mecha-Godzilla, he looked great. Obviously his 'musculature' was inspired by ROBOCOP...‼️ And im ok with that😊. As for

This is a really fun Godzilla movie, but it's not a "near perfect Godzilla movie" as you said. I still enjoyed it though

Best Akira Ifukube soundtrack ever!!!!!!!!!! I gotta say that this movie displayed the most complex emotion from the kaijus. I actually felt for more then just one for the first time, especially Baby Godzilla. My biggest issue with this movie is how they did Rodan dirty! Damn he was like useless, even with that power upgrade. Must disagree with you about this Rodan's design. While better then the Rodan from the Godzilla movies it's still no where as good as the costume from the 50's

Best Film of this series

I love this video so much because I have Godzilla and Mechagodzilla I love it.

Personally, I think you and many others are too harsh on Millennium and Reiwa entries and way too soft on Heisei. I went in wanting Heisei to be my favorite, but aside from Godzilla 1984, they all greatly disappointed and bored me to tears. And I like bad Godzilla movies. I had a lot of fun with Godzilla vs Megalon and the rest of th Showa series. I even love 1998 for what it is. But the Heisei series? Aside from the very impressive special effects, the monster action and human stories just left me feeling nothing by the time the movie was over. The human characters are typically below average and not likeable or compelling in any way, and the fight scenes have no energy or really anything to them. They get repetitive really fast. The Heisei era to me just felt too safe and too formulaic most of the time, and when they tried doing new and interesting things like Biollante and Destoroyah, it just never left an impression on me. You want a good Heisei series? Watch Gamera. It's truly some of the best in the genre. These movies just feel really weird to watch. Because they take the premise really seriously most of the time, to the point of it becoming boring and uninspired, but at the same time they're goofy as fuck, mainly with the human stories. But it's never in a fun B-movie way, because they're still trying to take it seriously. That's why the humans really suffer. The Showa era, on the surface is much whackier, with pretty dopey looking suits. And that's true for some of them. But movies like Mothra vs Godzilla, Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster, Destroy All Monsters, Godzilla vs Hedorah, Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla, and Terror of Mechagodzilla all tell very serious and very engaging human stories, but have a fun energy with it. Even less serious movies like King Kong vs Godzilla and Invasion of Astro-Monster still take it seriously and still have a fun time. I also don't know what it is about the old miniatures but seeing them get destroyed just looks better to me than the Heisei destruction. Maybe it's the actual crushing and crumbling rather than flashy explosions? I don't hate Heisei, I really want to love it, but I don't and just can't help but notice how unfairly the fanbase treats it compared to others.

This movie was really alright in my opinion. The design of MechaGodzilla in this film is my least favorite of the 3 (4 if you count the anime trilogy) The best part were the monster fights and the interactions with Baby Godzilla and the humans. 7/10

You’re far to biased on this film, Rodan is reduced to nothing but a stiff prop and the farthest thing from being “natural”. I’d say without a doubt, between this and Spacegodzilla, I don’t know what’s the worst of the Heisei series.

Surprised you didn't give this one five stars. I guess its highly-unoriginal title must have detracted from it (as it is by no means a sequel to Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla).

A good movie whit Godzilla getting development but it has things I did not like. Meachgodzila look stupid nor do I like the idea of him becoming a good guy. Most of all what they did to rodan was unforgiving. They turn him into a loser. He was nothing like the rouge badass from the showa era. It prove modern-day toho did not care much for rodan yet would use him whenever the hell they wanted to use him.

And I will say that rodan is pretty stiff, but he was used pretty well in the movie even if he was stiff, his fight with godzilla in the beginning and his fight with mechagodzilla at the end. And rodan in the original wasn't really that convincing either, but he was less stiff, so in mobility he is better, but his design does not look as realistic as heisei rodan. And how is the movie lazy besides not having rodan be less stiff, they have godzilla and mechagodzilla fighting and have lots of things happening in the fights.
