Trivia
Some of the footage from the original Godzilla (1954) was recreated with the new Godzilla suit, since Godzilla's appearance has changed so much from the original version.

Goofs
When Megaguirus shows itself for the first time, the strings holding it up, and the strings its flying on are clearly visible.

Crazy credits
A second ending begins at the end of the closing credits: At school, the little boy Jun had finished his bug collection, and his teacher tells him to put it back in his lab. Once he does just that, an earthquake shakes the school, and looking through the window in the school lab, Jun hears a familiar monster roar!

Interesting ideas for a decent result

Megaguirus often gets the short end of the Millienium Films as it is typically seen as a porotype for the story seen Masaaki Tezuka's later film, Godzilla against Mechagodzilla. The latter film certainly proves superior as the story in this film feels aimless at times. Perhaps a symptom of franchise fatigue that this entry comes of as rather dull and unremarkable though there are things to appreciate. Megaguirus is an interesting opponent for Godzilla and the original soundtrack is fantastic.
