Follows the heroic efforts of the crypto-zoological agency Monarch as its members face off against a battery of god-sized monsters, including the mighty Godzilla, who collides with Mothra, Rodan, and his ultimate nemesis, the three-headed King Ghidorah. When these ancient super-species, thought to be mere myths, rise again, they all vie for supremacy, leaving humanity's very existence hanging in the balance.

Critics leaned negative while admitting the monster fights, visuals and sound were spectacular. Most said the human characters and plot were thin and muddled, leaving a strong cast with little to do. Audience scores ran far higher than the critics' verdict.
