Godzilla: Final Wars

One thing you certainly can't accuse the grand finale of the Suitmation era of the Godzilla franchise of is being boring. "Godzilla: Final Wars" is so jam-packed with monsters and abstruse ideas that the movie is practically exploding out of control. I don't know if the plan was to make a trash movie, but they definitely succeeded. Because whether it's the crazy costumes, terrible acting, a stupid story, questionable directing and editing choices, or completely exaggerated characters, you can never really take "Final Wars" seriously. Nevertheless, I can appreciate that there are numerous allusions to the earlier parts of the series here. Above all, it is an homage to the Shōwa era, for example with the alien invasion by the Xiliens (including Elon Musk as the chief villain) or the presence of annoying Minilla. This is especially fun if, like me, you've just seen all the previous parts. But it's not exactly a good movie, as it ultimately lacks focus. At most, it has a few moments that work as fanservice. And if you like trash, you can't go wrong with "Final Wars" anyway.
