Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

The film's title notwithstanding, the real star of this Toho production is Godzilla, who - with the aid of another friendly monster, Mothra - puts paid to Ebirah ('an enormous crab' that looks very much like a boiled lobster) and the hordes of The Red Bamboo, a SMERSH-like organisation intent on world domination, and rescues various humans in distress.
