Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

felicemvirum That it is hilarious. Has to be one of the worst special effects efforts ever.

Johnny H. Reptilicus is just as ridiculous and poorly-contrived as its title. Its writing and bare-bones production value is so painfully obvious that, it's actually a joy to watch this thing because of how poorly done it is. It's Denmark's Godzilla without the trademark monster, without the visceral sense of disaster, and most importantly without the story. Basically imagine Europe's poor-man's answer to Japan's monster movies and you've got Reptilicus: a time capsule of a B-Grade treasure-chest that has been revived thanks to MST3K: The Return.See this movie and witness the lackluster story, the beautifully awful direction. Unfortunately this film is quite boring when it's not Reptilicus-ising everything. People talk and talk, and when we do see the monster it's not nearly enough. It's a movie that's so-bad-it's-good AND so-bad-it's-bad at the same time! See this film, either through renting/buying it, or through the MST3K: The Return episode that's just come out!

Edgar Soberon Torchia An original title may be the only saving grace of "Reptilicus", but somehow it works subliminally on one's head... I can't forget the beast's expressions, there are at least two shots in which it has a strange sad grimace, although the origin of this creature is so weird that one can hardly develop sympathy or any other kind of emotion for it, as it often happens with film monsters. The character of the American general is not a very pleasant fellow, but the filmmakers put the weight of 70% of their movie on his shoulder, since the engineer does not do much and the professor is not only too old but also a cardiac patient... Then there is a bit of comic relief, two daughters that add nothing to the plot, a little travelogue of Copenhagen, a musical number, two different scores, and beautiful Miss Germany 1958 playing the leading lady in the American version. No more choices. Strange bad film, but somehow unforgettable. Maybe it has to do with poor Reptilicus. When I see things like this, that needed more than its two-cent budget I wonder why they made it.

Stephanie Anderson And it's a great try at Kaiju! Seriously, this is a cool movie. The American edit is missing some of the good scenes (a giant, life-sized foot and the beast flying) but it's still okay. I liked the added effects a bit, added to the cheesy feel of it all. One issue with how it's looked at though: people think it was meant to be serious! Some do anyways. I think it would be a cool movie to try and remake. Of all the kajiu, it seems to be missing out on the attention it deserves. Check out both variations, but be warned: there is a weird musical number in the original version...A strange fact about it: in Canada (or Rocky Mountain House at least)they released the original dub, without the added effects. In fact, it may be the only time it was shown like that out here!
