Grant Watson Fiction Machine For those who simply crave scenes of giant monster mayhem, it is likely to prove a delight. Rated: 7/10 Jun 23, 2021 Full Review Kevin L. Lee Film Inquiry This film is basically a retread of the 1964 original, but with improved special effects and an expansion on Mothra's abilities. Jun 7, 2019 Full Review Witney Seibold Nerdist I like Battle for Earth just fine, although it doesn't possess the fun craziness of the previous film. May 23, 2019 Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy A lousy movie with great monster scenes. Rated: 5/10 Mar 4, 2014 Full Review Steve Crum Video-Reviewmaster.com Maybe they both could lose? Don't wish for too much. Rated: 1/5 Aug 14, 2007 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 3/5 Aug 13, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Justin T I enjoyed watching this but it is a step down again as the pace is slower and the crazy insanity isn’t as prevalent. It’s an entertaining kaiju movie but I couldn’t help feeling a little bored at times. It sticks with the cheesy effects and style but not as silly or crazy so much more forgettable. It also does have the serious tone so it does fall short of all the other films in this era so far. Still, it’s entertaining but my least favourite of the new era so far. Possibly I even preferred the original Mothra vs. Godzilla (1964) but only by a tiny amount. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/01/24 Full Review josh d Solid Heisei era Godzilla movie. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/09/24 Full Review Rich A Battra time underrated! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/23/24 Full Review Chanr3y k Godzilla vs Mothra is one of the weaker movies of the heisei era, Godzilla feels shoe horned in, and thats mainly because Godzilla wasn't meant to be in this movie, but aside from that the Characters are somewhat decent and action pieces are fun. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/15/24 Full Review Irelia I props to the director!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/05/24 Full Review Spike G Fun action great stuff Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/06/24 Full Review Read all reviews
