Yongary, Monster from the Deep

“A Monster from another age ... with terrifying destructive powers ...”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 64, rated by 1 admin.

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

Why it’s crap
A huge reptile emerges in South Korea and makes remarkably quick work of miniature infrastructure. The familiar monster-crisis plotting is earnest, while the suit work and unusual solutions to a city-sized problem provide plenty of homegrown kaiju charm.
