Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah 1991
Maybe it’s that I started this movie and ended it days later, maybe it’s not the strongest entry in the Heisei era, maybe it’s me.
A lot of the good things in this era get shelved with GvKG. It’s not a new foe, well sort of. it’s not an overly unique or different plot line, and it’s not the strongest in terms of set & some of the human element falls off the rails, but damn is it good.
