"I'm not a hard-core Godzilla fan, but i find them entertaining, so i picked up this DVD. Upon watching it, the one thing that really annoyed me was the lack of the widescreen option. I always like to have the original scope of the film. That is a main reason why i didn't give it 5 stars. The japanese soundtrack isn't available as an option. I prefer the english dubbing anyway, for comic effect at least. For those people who prefer the english subtitles that option should have been presented as well as the widescreen option. But I do really like the fact that you get two movies on this DVD, while costing the same as one normally does. And anyway these are two of my favorite Godzilla movies and they look good on this DVD. These two movies are both really cool: Mothra: Battle for Earth is really my favorite, the tiny twin women are fantastic! King Ghidora is very entertaining but not nearly as cool as Mothra. It's worth the money if you're a casual Godzilla fan like me, and don't mind the missing japanese soundtrack and widescreen options..."
Awesome! Finally a '90's Godzilla!

"Ever since I saw the original 50's Godzilla, I had always wondered how it had evolved in the 90's. Now I know. It's plain awesome! A bigger Godzilla with even bigger special effects. I love it!"
One of the best Godzilla movies

Godzilla vs King Ghidorah:
While best appreciated by true Godzilla fans, this movie is actually a pretty good science fiction story in its own right. A tricked out space craft with time travel ability presents some intriguing plot possibility that keeps the audience wondering. One interesting insights is how the story portrays what Japan will become in the future. Add to that a back story that presents the origins of both Godzilla and Ghidorah and you end up with one of the best Godzilla movies ever made.
Godzilla and Mothra:
This is basically an updated movie of the early flicks involving Mothra. Worth watching if you're a big Godzilla or Mothra fan.

Great Movies On One DVD!

"Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah- The King Is Back!
This is the sequel to Godzilla vs. Biollante. This introduces Ghidora into the new series.
For people who are not really big Godzilla fans, the Godzilla movies are broken up into 3 parts so far. 1954-1978 is the Showa series, 1984-1995 is the Heisei series and 1999-Present is the Shinsei or Millennium series. Each has different stories. Originally in the Showa series, Ghidora came to Earth by a meteorite, but this movie is in the newer Heisei (1984-1995) series. According to this series, Ghidora was mutated from Durats way back in the 1940's. If you follow the Heisei movies in order, this movie is interesting because the added on to what was already said. They mention about his fight with Biollante in this movie, and Biollante was the movie before this. If you watch this without order, this may not be as interesting. Watch the movies in order because it is meant as a series all the way up to Godzilla vs. Destroyah and is more fun to watch.
Godzilla & Mothra: The Battle for Earth- Moth with Rodan's Voice
The Battle for Earth has to be one of the best Godzilla movies I have seen. From the story to the special fx, this movie is all around really great! The only thing wrong is that a new monster named Battra the "black mothra" sounds like Rodan. Besides that, this movie is solid gold
