I’m literally worshipping all of Mothra’s songs
The scene where she cocoons herself under that soundtrack and then emerges is just fucking mesmerizing. My only gripe is that her design looks way too much like a plushie, It’s hard to take it seriously when Godzilla is basically fighting a giant stuffed animal, lol
BUT BATTRA THO. I’m obsessed with the design. The larva form with that massive horn and the eye beams is insane. And then she hatches into her flying form and it’s just… total peak. I’m glazing it, I know, but look at that face… she literally looks like a tiny black kitten🥹🥹 I FUCKING CRIED WHEN SHE DIED, why did they have to do that to me😭
The final battle was wild
Watching Mothra and Battra team up against Godzilla was such a trip. My boy was definitely confused af, like: “Weren't you two just trying to kill each other? Why am I getting jumped now??” Lmao
Also, I really wasn't feeling the twins this time. Those designs and hairstyles were a choice... and not a good one, not hating but like cmooon

My second favorite Godzilla movie of all time!!! Mothra is so cool. Battra is an awesome new foe. Godzilla is so dope in this film too. Peak heisei Godzilla film.

MOTHRA’s BACK BABY!!

I love mothra and I’m happy to see her included in this line up. It’s also nice that if you were aware of mothra lore from the previous movies you won’t miss a beat. The unfortunate thing is if you didn’t watch those at all, didn’t know they existed, and say you were about a 12 year old boy and wanted watch his first Godzilla movie ever and chose this one for some reason, you will be horribly confused about why there are two small singing women, why and how mothra can even manage to injure Godzilla let alone win in a fight against him, what all the symbols mean. All of it, as a child you just look at the rubber suits smacking each other and then turn your brain off when the humans do stuff, luckily the monster action in this one is pretty consistent. Little bit of knock off Indiana jones in the beginning, little bit of human stuff, the environment is in danger, earth is actually a living being as well and is angry at humans for how they’ve been destroying it so it’s retaliating with an evil mothra, Godzilla, Mothra and evil mothra (Battra) fight in the ocean which is pretty cool, mothra larva rampage, Godzilla and battra both arrive on land at the same time, mothra hatches out from her cocoon, monsters throw hands, movie is over. I do appreciate the pacing just keeps moving, there’s never really any boring moments the movie feels pretty go go go. My biggest issues with it are the unexplainable nature of mothra, something like if you’re knowledgeable about her own movie in the 60’s as well as her appearances in other Godzilla movies you’ll be fine. Unfortunately though this is a new series of films and I have to knock some of the score away for just not really bothering to set Mothra up, in a way I appreciate that, in other ways I think back to that 12 year old who just sat down to watch his first Godzilla movie and after finishing it kind of resented this entry for being a not great first impression. Overall though my hang up with this one is actually something that will come up two movies from now on Godzilla Vs Space Godzilla. There’s a plot point in that movie that gets two explanations and one of them makes the most logical sense the other is just kind of dumb and unfortunately both of them are treated as fact even though this thing could happen with and without the other. Basically, I’ll get more into that during space Godzilla but for now the ending of this movie is just kind of lost potential. Especially since where it ends and now in hindsight 3 years later we’d get the rebirth of Mothra trilogy and that seemed like a perfect excuse to carry on the story from this movie but they don’t. Those movies just exist in their own nebulous timeline unrelated to everything and I think that’s also a missed potential. Mothra flies into space to stop a meteor from killing the earth in 1999, you have a whole 6 years of stories you could tell in that timeframe of mothra in space but unfortunately the rebirth of mothra movies do nothing with that idea.

Anyway that’s unrelated this movie itself is pretty good and keeps moving just not one of my favorites even though I love Mothra so much.
