...Urbaniak) is literally lying in the street waiting for...something. Henry (Thomas Jay Ryan, pinwheeling raffish charisma) has everything, and too much of it.

...Godzilla is the spawn of nuclear tests in the Pacific, and this time he makes his way quickly to New York City. Matthew Broderick plays an American scientist, Dr. Nick Tatopoulos (a nod to the new creator); Jean Reno is a mysterious agent for the French; Maria Pitillo is a newscaster wannabe; and Hank Azaria is a TV cameraman. Together they battle not just Godzilla but a teeming snake pit of little Godzillas. Though referred to as "he," the monster belongs to transgender studies, reproducing by parthenogenesis.
