Godzilla returns to America in the Hollywood cut of The Return of Godzilla! But he’s not alone—Raymond Burr reprises his role from Godzilla 1956, Dr. Pepper sneaks onto the set, dubious dubbing abounds, and soldiers make wisecracks in poor taste. You know, all that American stuff. But does it ultimately complement or distract from the Japanese original? Help us find out! Plus, Matt and Vincent’s review of The Return of Godzilla circa 2022.

This was my first Godzilla movie seen in a theater. I still remember the newspaper ads and movie listings, begging my parents. I saw it at the Citadel Mall, Colorado Springs, 1985, with my little sister. Our parents dropped us off at the theater and went on their way shopping at the mall.
