Godzilla returns to his roots as a baddie for he is surely the antagonist designed to accommodate Mothra's heroine and Battra's anti-hero roles; there's no ambiguity in this installment of the franchise: sometimes Godzilla is a goodie, an anti-hero, an ambivalent agency but sometimes he's the baddie and this is a cast iron example.
He's also only really featured in two barnstorming three way battle scenes and he seems to have no function to the plot, it's premise, or its conclusion.
This is really a Mothra movie and it's really rather slow, plodding and padded with waffle and side-plots but the monster combat action is decidedly good.
As a film I found 'Godzilla Vs Mothra battle for Earth' dull, boring and slow with vague characters and unfunny humour and a plot that's more vacuous than the cast and I would rate it at a very subpar 2.5/10 but the battles are fun and Godzilla erupting from mount Fuji after swimming through molten lava from a seabed fault to the volcano, well, I increase my rating to a 4.5/10 accordingly.
I recommend to Mothra fans unreservedly and for general Godzilla fans and creature feature film fans I'd say that this has a few treasures worth stealing a look at.
