"Destoroyah and Godzilla, now we have two incredible monsters."
What a send-off.
The best of the Heisei Era and probably the best Godzilla film so far. (I still prefer Shin over this though) Everything is ramped up and beautifully executed. The best fight scenes we've gotten, the best characters and story we've gotten, and the best score since the original.
I loved the call backs to the Oxygen Destroyer and flashbacks to the OG Godzilla film with handfuls of clips of Dr. Serizawa, it made this film feel like a love letter to the original.
Minilla aka "Junior" in this film looks amazing, I love the more slouched, skinnier, more T-Rex-like appearance he has when compared to his father.
Speaking of his father, Godzilla is the meanest, craziest, and most powerful he's ever been and his presence livens up the screen more than he ever has.
Destoroyah, was also incredible. At first I wasn't too impressed, but once it's fully grown it really lives up to the most fearsome foe Godzilla's faced yet, even more than Mechagodzilla and even more than King Ghidorah.
All in all I was very happy with this Eras send off, it was very well deserved. The Era as a whole was more tonally consistent than the Showa Era, plus I really enjoyed the continuing story with Miki as the main reoccurring character.
This left me with such a sweet taste in my mouth, especially when compared to my more bitter feeling I felt whenever I finished the Showa Era films.
Godzilla vs. Destoroyah is the best Godzilla film since the original, full of amazing characters, a banging score, massive kaiju fights, and a crazy ride of a story.
The final shot gave me chills.
"My work with Godzilla is finished."
