Pretty light on new commentary but its ideas and things in this film are so fun and insane that I can't help but like it.
Also the final fight was really fucking good.
I will never get over those puppets tho, one time they'll look fine and then they'll look like the funniest shit ever.(Watch my feature film https://boxd.it/cQ1mBp )

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A colorful, deliberately campy kaiju spectacle where giant monsters with wildly different personalities must overcome their rivalries to face an overwhelming cosmic threat. Pure escapist monster-movie fun played with a wink and a smile.
