"Silly, cheesy, ridiculous, and above all, fun."—Rob Thomas, Capital Times (Madison, WI)

"All business when it comes to delivering big action and colorful antagonists, working in a few environmental messages on the dangers of nuclear testing along the way, to anchor the nonsense to come."—Brian Orndorf, Blu-ray.com

The undersea kingdom of Seatroplis is threatened when Japan begins atomic testing near Tokyo. The angry Seatopians send their secret weapon, Megalon, to destroy Tokyo and eliminate the human race, but Earth gets one last chance when the sleeping Godzilla is rudely awakened! It becomes a titanic tag-team of apocalyptic dimensions as Godzilla and robot superhero Jet Jaguar fight Megalon and Gigan engage in an all-out rubber suit rumble to determine Earth's fate!
