In an effort to get rid of Godzilla once and for all, Japan develops a device which is supposed to open up a black hole, allowing its people to blast the giant city-stomping lizard creature into another dimension. While the hole is opened, an insect from that other dimension sneaks through and lays an egg, which finds its way into the sewers of Tokyo. Before long, a swarm of alien insects--which feed on Godzilla's energy--are wreaking their own brand of havoc on Japan and its citizens. (official distributor synopsis)

25) GODZILLA vs MEGAGUIRUS – ALTERNATE REALITY SERIES 1999-2001. Here comes Godzilla and with a bag of problems. The imagination of the writers of Toho is boundless, sometimes it seems like they are competing to see who can come up with the craziest stuff. Godzilla has a really tough opponent here: a government project in the form of a special cannon that fires – ahem – black holes that are supposed to "consume" Godzilla and wipe it off the face of the earth. And as if that wasn't enough, the carnivorous dragonfly-like beasts born in Tokyo's sewers and their mother, the giant Megagirasu, come into the picture and give Godzilla a hard time. There are also human emotions, here in the form of a young soldier whose boyfriend is killed by Godzilla at the beginning during one of the military actions, and she wants revenge (as in the following episode). Godzilla doesn't resemble a man in a rubber suit anymore and there’s plenty of digital effects, which negates the charm of the original Showa series, but you can't stop progress.

The film "Gojira vs Megaguirus: The G Annihilation Strategy" is not exceptional, unfortunately, and it is rather a classic spectacle within the kaiju genre. The great positive is the fact that a completely new monster appears here and not just the old ones are recycled. The battles are also not bad and the connection with digital effects, although sometimes a bit stuttering, is not fundamentally. A slight above average, but the film generally approaches the average.
