I just realized that not only have I seen every Godzilla movie ever made, I also own all but one of them. If this does anything at all, it qualifies me to state that overall, Godzilla movies aren't very good. I mean, as solid stories go, these G-flicks are not exactly "Wuthering Heights". But what they are is entertaining and sometimes with good reason. Take "Godzilla vs. Biollante", for example. It's a story about Japan, the U.S., and some fictional Middle-Eastern oil rich country trying to out spy each other for control of some Godzilla cells. These cells have been left scattered around the destruction from Big G's last stomp through Tokyo.

Wow. It is silly. But it's so over the top and so illogical it kept me engaged. This movie contains some absolutely stupid spy-vs-spy action. There's also a countless number of mistakes in the English dub. It's all pretty funny.

The special effects are pretty good and Biollante is the ugliest, but one of the most different kaiju ever committed to film. The big dust up between the two beasts is never really resolved. Godzilla falls face first on the beach only to pop up again and head back out to sea and Biollante just turns into some magic environmental pixie dust and floats into the sky.

If you're watching this for the monsters (and that's why you watch Godzilla), this one is worth your time.
