Godzilla 3: Hoshi wo Kuu Mono

With the defeat of the Bilusaludo's nanometal city, the destruction of humanity seems inevitable. Worse yet, Captain Haruo Sakaki's refusal to sacrifice his humanity has come under fire from the remaining Bilusaludo troops, who blame him for their defeat. In their darkest moment, the few surviving humans turn to the religion of the Exifs, which promises that devotion is the path to salvation from Godzilla.

However, the Exif are not what they seem. As the survivors become more and more zealous in their devotion, Sasaki wonders what exactly the priest Metphies is hiding—especially regarding his relationship with the monster known as Ghidorah.

Where should i start?

This movie can't be a better ending to this trilogy.

The story is quite better than the second one.
Let's make it in parts:

Story: It could be better in some parts. The first half of the movie is kinda slow and boring and just after the first 40 minutes the movie starts to get a good pace. Also the movie made you think on the phylosophy of live and how our real enemy not always is those things we fear but the things we are. STORY: 7

Art: Beautiful CGI, i don't usually like the CGI that mimics anime, but this one ... is almost flawless. Face expressions can be improved but they feel good enough to not think you're watching robots instead of humans. ART: 8

Sound: The best part of the movie is the music and sound itself. Quite an improvement over the two last movies. The music expressed the feelings of the characters sometimes better than their faces. And the ending song is just as good as the score. The sound editing is very good too. Sound: 9

Character: Now we can see a real development of the characters, their true motivations and feelings were explored in very good way. Something that in the past two movies was not done. In the first and second movie the characters were like robots trying to be humans, but in this one you can feel the emotions on the characters. Making them to feel alive and making us to real connect with them. Character: 8

Enjoyment: This part is quite subjective, as a movie fan this movie is quite an improvement over the last two, yes, but then, as a Kaiju movie fan, i think the movie could be a lot better. And that is the point: it is supposed to be a Godzilla movie, a Kaiju movie.
And in the end the movie was a real good action-drama movie with some parts of Kaiju appearances and even less kaiju fights. More battle between Godzilla and Ghidorah could be appreciated, and, oh god, Ghidorah didn't make justice to his name. Enjoyment: 7

So as conclusion: a real good movie but if you are a fan of Kaiju movies and battles maybe this movie will let you with a desire for more.
very good movie that needs more kaiju on it. An average of 7.8 so:

OVERALL: 8

People hating on this series for no big monster fights, well too bad this is not that type movie. Urobuchi who wrote scripts for psycho pass take the scripts for this series so you would expect ideas of dystopia, religion, technology, humanity. You would love the series if you enjoy all kinds of debates about the above topics in a post apocalypse scene, and apparently English translation on netflix is not so good either. It tries to review what religions, technology(rationality) really did to and utilize humanity, questioning the outcome of their prosperity, set up an what if that both(religion become cult)(technology become anti human ... and emotionless, like in terminator and stuff) if not used well would lead to destruction(creates monsters like godzilla, mecha godziilla and so). I really recommend the series to more patient watchers.

Unable to destroy Godzilla through the use of conventional anime tropes, the constipated crew from the previous film decided to turn toward religion to summon Shenron to grant their wish of eliminating “The King of Monsters.” But they forgot one important detail: they didn’t collect the seven dragon balls beforehand. Enraged by their insolence, Shenron (i.e. Ghidorah) destroyed his believers to clear the way for his cataclysmic, multiverse bout with the reigning world champion. In a rare turn of events, Stone Cold Steve Austin decided to step in as the guest referee. Proving, once again, that unapologetic alcoholism will lead to ... some “golden” opportunities.

Story: Gahhhhhh

They basically reused the same talkity-talk-talk, time to fight now formula they used in the second film. Nothing interesting takes place during the build up to Godzilla’s “final" battle. The fight between Godzilla and Ghidorah is extremely bland. And Godzilla’s heel-face turn was much expected. The humans involved don’t even seem to learn any significant lessons from their ordeal, and seem quite ignorant about their own blunders in creating the fearsome “monster.”

Characters: Blaahhhhh

The character’s are as poorly written as they are animated. None of them convey more than two emotions, nor do they come off as “real” or relatable. The ending scene where Harou decided to “crash” his spacecraft into Godzilla was as perplexing as it was stupid. The writers of this abomination, clearly, did not put much thought into developing their cast of characters in any meaningful manner.

Animation: Ooooffff

You would think that 2018 level animation would be better than this; unfortunately, you’d be sadly mistaken. The characters basic motions — like walking — look incredibly awkward (mechanical, if you will). Godzilla and Ghidorah’s battle looked herky-jerky, at best. In addition, the scenery had a lifeless texture, that expunged any element of vitality or realism.

Enjoyment: Meeehhhh

If you are simply watching this film for the “epic” battle between Godzilla and Ghidorah, then I have bad news for you: the battle was dreadful. The writers attempted to amp the viewer’s expectations by postponing the “momentous” exchanges between the two monsters until the very end. But it felt like they were extending the eventual payoff for the sake of stretching out the movie to qualify as such.

Not much else to say. The movie, much like its predecessors, is incredibly prosaic, with a paucity in excitement and originality.
