Rebirth of Mothra

“Fight, in order to protect!”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 68, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
Miniature guardians struggle against a witch and a newly released monster while another Mothra takes flight. The family-oriented revival mixes household slapstick with large-scale creature combat. The broad performances and variable dubbed voices can be grating, but the monster effects have lively moments.
