While searching for Godzilla underwater, a government agency seeking to destroy Big G accidentally wakes up an unfriendly alien aboard it's ship who has been sleeping for the last few million years at the bottom of the bay. Godzilla does not take kindly to anything else destroying his city so it's on like Donkey Kong.

I enjoyed this Godzilla movie because it's one of the few movies where the humans are actually interesting. Most of the time they are background noise. The writers took the time to develop three or four characters, giving us someone to root for, care for and also despise.

The alien ship was formidable enough but when the alien(s) aboard is able to siphon off some of Godzilla's DNA and create a monster body of his own, the big guy has his hands full. This movie used a variety of techniques to bring the monsters, spaceship and fights to life, including the signature miniatures Godzilla movies are known for. Too often in Godzilla movies there are a lot of boring filler scenes in between monster fights, Godzilla 2000 kept the action going among the monsters and the humans.

Despite its mediocre rating I found it entertaining from start to finish.
