Release date: March 21st 1974 (Japanese release), March 1977 (American release).
Story: Ape like aliens arrive on Earth to order to conquer it. And they created a robot version of Godzilla. But the humans begin to suspect that there is something wrong when Mechagodzilla (disguised as Godzilla) attacks Anguirus (who is Godzilla's friend and ally). Things then became clear as the real Godzilla appears and reveals the imposter to be Mechagodzilla. Things then lead to an exciting climax when Godzilla fights Mechagodzilla with the help from a ancient dog/lion hybrid guardian kaiju named King Caesar. Will Godzilla defeat his robotic rival and save the day? Give it a watch and find out.
My thoughts: This was the second Godzilla movie I have ever see. And it is awesome. Back then I didn't know who Anguirus or King Ghidorah (the monster that a Azumi priestess had a vision of at the beginning of the film) were but I later learned about them in the PlayStation game Godzilla: Save the Earth. Mechagodzilla is a cool villain and King Caesar is also amazing. I hope that these two (along with Anguirus) will appear in Legendary's monster cinematic universe. This movie went by many names like Godzilla vs the Bionic Monster and Godzilla vs the Cosmic Monster. And the German release called it King Kong vs Godzilla. If you are a Godzilla fan, I would recommend this but there is some blood and gore in this so viewer discretion is advised.
My score: Four stars.
