This is a pretty sick little tale, but you’d expect nothing less from Miike. A completely original and unpredictable movie, it has undeniable replay value, and it’s so much fun to show your friends. The ending is my favorite though.

Unbiased Review For Buy Hookah Hyderabad
this ones cool cause there are literaly two godzillas in each. yay. the packaging could be better as in SPECIAL FEATURES. or lack there of. but its awsome space godzilla was messed up i thought every thing was going to die, and desoroyah was awsome cause it should have been GOZILLA VS a XENOMORPH crab that poped out of the chest of SATAN. yeah long title but its is what it is. Godzilla’s gonna explode to pave the way for zilla but baby is standing there looking like dad saying if the americans cant do a good job on tri stars 1998 version im gonna be back with godzilla 2000 a year later cause i know americans cant capture this. you cant redo this! any way yeah great pack just wish it offered it in japanese also, throw some features at me to tri star. or releas GODZILLA 1985!!!
since i cant rate it a 3.5 im going with 2. first off space godzilla. ilike space godzilla but the director mustv been the hedorah faluire who i hear is directing the new godzilla movie. very bad and gives this pack a bad name. i recomend destroyah.
now destroyah is really coll.and this movie did a god job ending the heisei series. the ending was depressing because 1 godzilla was melting 2 the muisic was sad 3 they did a good job with the camera. i recomend going to [...] (destroyah only) if you can get it to the us. i have a goal of collecting every godzilla movie so yeah…
This dvd is really good but don’t expect HIGH QUALITY VIDEO! From time to time you will notice minor issues with video quality but all in all an excellent dvd. The only reason I give this 4 STARS is due to the minor video quality issues. Good stuff!
If you are a fan of Godzilla, this double feature disk is a must own! Showcasing the final two films of the Heisei era, both films play vital roles in the Godzilla saga.
1. Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla – Okay, this one is definately the weaker of the two films on this disk. Actually “SpaceGodzilla” may be the weakest entry in Heisei series. The basic storyline is that there are two factions in the government fighting over the Godzilla problem faced by Japan. Should he be killed or controlled? Using a psychic, one group launches Project T with hopes that Godzilla can be controlled and used to do the psychic’s bidding. On the other hand the military has created Moguera, a poor man’s version of MechaGodzilla in hopes of dealing with the rampaging lizard.While all this is going on, SpaceGodzilla shows up and kind of pees on everyones Wheaties by attacking Godzilla and capturing Little Godzilla.
SpaceGodzilla probably looked like a good idea on paper, but on film he just comes off as clunky and not very threatening. Saddled with this HUGE (and I mean HUGE) Crystal shell on his back, he looks as though he can barely move let alone fight. Once he sheds most of the shell he’s still stuck with these two giant crytals jutting out of his shoulders and it looks as though it’s a struggle simply to raise his arms. Mothra is listed as being in this, but she is only shown in a brief shot still flying into space, basically a cameo appearance. There are a couple mini-Mothra messengers but that is about it. Overall this is a pretty weak film, but it is somewhat important as it sets up a couple events seen in the next film. 2 Stars out of 5.
2. Godzilla vs. Destoroyah – In case you were wondering, it’s pronounced “Destoryer”. This is definately the best film of the Heisei series, and for me personally one of the best films of the entire Godzilla series! Godzilla is basically a walking nuclear reactor, and bad news for the world…he’s going into meltdown mode! Hoping to destory Godzilla before he goes nuclear, the military look to the success Dr. Kyohei Yamane had with the Oxygen Destroyer 50 years previously and bring in his grandson to work on another Oxygen Destoryer device. Unfortunately, a strange new life form has sprouted up where the original Oxygen Destroyed was detonated. This new life form begin to grow rapidly into a bunch of viscous 10 foot tall creatures that begin destorying Tokyo.
This is a great movie, Godzilla looks phenomenal with his “lava rash”, Destoroyah is awesome looking, and poses a genuine threat. There is one great scene with a reporter stuck in a car trying to evade a Destoroyah that is simply nail-biting fun! The film score is top notch with Toho and Godzilla veteran Akira Ifukube providing the music in what would be his last film score before his death. The special effects, the acting (both physical and the dubbing) are top notch, the storyline is a notch above most other entries in the series as well. Overall I give this entry 5 out of 5 stars!
If there is such a thing as sophisticated potty humor, than this is it. I don’t know if I have ever seen a filthier movie pulled off with such style and substance, maintaining the delicate balance between the high and the low, the sacred and the profane. A comedy set around death and dying is nothing new, bringing to mind Itami Juzo’s The Funeral, but this is done in an entirely different, and outrageous, style. And there is a dancing corpse.
The jokes, some of which I blush to recall (and I never blush) are clever word-play rather than simple sight gags, that had me laughing so hard I had to pause the movie just to get it all out. The Japanese love their body humor, and aren’t afraid to find giggles in the toilet, but this is no Eddie Murphy flick with the funniest bit being a fart and a fat person. This is comedy set in the world of rakugo, professional comedic storytellers that are as much a part of the venerable and traditional Japanese theater tradition as Kabuki and Noh.
As the story begins, a master storyteller lies in his deathbed, and his disciples gather around him to ease his passage. Offering to fulfill his final wish, they lean forward to hear what the master has to say. His voice is faint, but he manages to whisper out that he would like to see a…oh yes, exactly what you are thinking. A nice juicy honey pot. And from there it only gets better, or worse depending on your perspective.
“Wakeful Nights” has an impressive cast, all famous faces and pros of the Japanese film industry such as Sasano Takashi (Love and Honor), Nakai Kiichi (When the Last Sword Is Drawn) and Kinoshiita Houka (Shinobi – Heart Under Blade). Director Tsugawa Masahiko is making his first film here, but he is an experienced actor who knows his way around a camera. The movie is a bit uneven, moving from pure riots of hilarity to sudden slowdowns of seriousness that are well done but leave you hungry for the next burst of comedy. There isn’t much here by way of sub-plots and character development, which is missed, even in the face of such stellar laughs.
This DVD by Animeigo deserves extra props as well. Because so much of the humor in “Wakeful Nights” is based on naughty puns and double-meanings in the Japanese language, the subtitles do extra duty translating the cultural elements above and the regular dialog below. I could imagine this might be a touch annoying to someone just looking to shut their brains off and enjoy a flick, but anyone who is interested in Japanese language and /or culture will find this a treasure trove. Also, along with the usual features, like deleted scenes and such, there is a fantastic sing-along section for the tunes in the dirty-song contest feature in the movie. Rarely have I seen such an original and fun bonus feature, which means you spend a long time playing with the disk after the movie is over.
Something happened in this movie, Something is missing anyways this movie is great next time they should add better effects
y got this on a dobeul feature my dad bougth me.moguera has my favrioute robot monster and little godzilla has also cute but y hise that spacegodzilla appeard in more movies to mie he has one of godzilla most evil monster enimy.also just so you no godzilla is a dinosaur and spacegodzilla is related to him so spacegodzilla is a space dinosaur.
Arguably the best Heisei Godzilla movie to date. The Special Effects were kinda lame, though. Besides that and the fact that Spacegodzilla looks really fake, this movie is a great way to celebrate 40 years of Godzilla! Long may he and his monster friends stomp!
i got this movie 2 years ago then i loved but now i am more mature and expeirience of life so it stared to get lessintresting [not to mention the first godzilla with breif nudiety] it’s still a fun movie
The actual film gets 4 out of 4 from me (amazon and most sites only let you rate 5 out of 5), but after close to a year of waiting after this disc got pushed back and back, the end result is a completely unacceptable Bluray disc. The image quality, I’m sorry to say, is no different than the DVD and looks to be derived from the DVD with marginally increased sharpness. The sound quality is what made me return the disc. The Japanese Dolby Digital 5.1 track sounds AWFUL! Worse than the DVD, which had a great 5.1 mix. Also, it looks as if the only Dolby True-HD tracks on the disc are both English and Japanese Dolby TrueHD 2.0! Why would you include an HD 2.0 mix on an HD disc that most definitely has 5.1 audio. I’ve seen ‘Ichi the Killer’ theatrically and know all too well that it looks and sounds better than this. Sorry I had to burst the bubbles of many eager ‘Ichi’ fans (myself included), but I sent this back almost immediately after buying it. A shame.
After reading most of the reviews posted here on Amazon, I just had to post my own.
I cannot believe how many people just don’t “get” what this movie is about! This movie is not about the Yakuza in Japanese society, an exercise in pointless violence to sell tickets or dvds, or any other such nonsense. The director just uses these as backdrops for his own purposes. Takashi Miike is playing and having a hell of a lot of fun. This movie invites the viewer to go along for the ride. It’s totally over the top and that’s where it belongs. Is the latest thrill-ride roller coaster from theme-park hell a “statement”? Of course not. It’s just a thrill-ride. Every character is a joke and every scene in the movie is just one hilarious joke after another. Granted, it’s very black humor but that doesn’t make it any less hilarious. Why can’t people just accept that and laugh along with him?
If you want to see (good) bleak Yakuza movies with social themes, check out any of the titles in his earlier Black Society Trilogy (aka Black Triad Trilogy): Shinjuku Triad Society, Rainy Dog, and Ley Lines. These are gripping statements of alienation, corruption and emotional disintegration in Japanese society.
Too many people want to limit this director. It must really annoy him that his audience wants the same kind of movie every time he makes one. He’s not interested in making the film Audition (or fill in the blank with another title) another fifty times. I for one don’t want him to either.
Folks, it’s just a wonderful joke. Laugh!
If I could go back and be a boy again, this would be one of the first movies I ever layed innocent eyes on! As a child, I sat and wondered at the tv series with Batman and Robin, and the adapted movie. The images are still there over thirty years later. Wow, just to imagine how this movie could influence a new generation, Hmmm. Maybe a whole new genre of “real life comic book heroes (and villains)”. Already? Maybe…I’m not satisfied, I know there’s more. Not simply degredation, but art!
This man’s ultimate high was his brush with you know what. Now that’s art.
The rock group Entombed put out an album called To Ride, Shoot Straight and Speak the Truth back in ‘97. The song Put Me Out would be a great anthem for this movie. You can hear the amazing intro by looking up their cd on Amazon and then clicking the link to the tenth track, Put Me Out. It’s a really freaky song, perfect for this movie. Go listen to it, then buy it, because the whole cd RULES.
Put Me Out.
‘You break my bones,
Crush my head with stones
You dance on my grave
I am your slave!’
-Entombed (from To Ride, Shoot Straight and Speak the truth)
