It's kinda like The Expendables. It's just cool to see all those actors/monsters in one movie. Who cares if the script has huge holes or some characters have limited screentime. Call me a nerd but I greatly enjoyed this bonanza of monstars. Oh yeah, spoiler

Objectively and compared to the rest of cinematic canon, Godzilla: Final Wars is not a terribly good film, but as the Avengers: Endgame of Toho monster movies reaching back to the '50s, it's AMAZING! In this ultimate continuity, not only have the original continuity Godzilla films happened, but a lot of other Ishirō Honda spectaculars, and those that HAVEN'T have a good chance of getting referenced (who else expected Gorath?! Or the monster from Atragon!). It's chock-a-block full of monsters, including Emmerich's big dumb 'zilla in its craptastic CG glory. And Godzilla must fight them all after they've been Pokeballed by aliens and thrown at various cities (a sequence played for laughs and satisfying enough without making the movie 4 hours long). The human cast includes Don "The Predator" Frye spouting macho nonsense, and a cadre of super-powered mutants who can fight kaiju with nothing but laser bazookas. They're also pretty good at kung fu fighting the aliens, but those sequences go on way too long. Thankfully, the kaiju action is fun, and in addition to the monsters, Toho's Golden Age is paid tribute to with wrestling and football action, as well as Minilla-Godzilla family cheese. Insane, fun, and relentless, and a great way to close the books on the franchise until more realistic takes (in Japan and America) start it up again.
