Bambi Meets Godzilla (1969)
Bambi is attacked ruthlessly by Godzilla without provocation or warning.
2 August 2005 - 5 out of 6 users found this review helpful.
The credit sequence (which is extensive) is hilarious. (I believe this movie influenced Monty Python's credit sequences.) It falls prey to the same sync problems which plague most Japanese imports. Although the plot is simple, it has become a classic because of its direct approach to universal themes and interpretations ranging from "good vs evil" to "little guy vs corporate greed." Marxist undertones are not hard to see here. The director's clear point of view and gracious acknowledgment of the many (usually anonymous) workers whose contributions blend seamlessly to make this classic make this one of the least didactic of the Godzilla canon.
