With writer-director Michael Dougherty's GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS hitting theaters this weekend we thought we'd take on director Roland Emmerich's 1998 version of the big green guy with GODZILLA (1998) starring Matthew Broderick, Jean Reno, Hank Azaria, Maria Pitillo, Arabella Field, Kevin Dunn, Doug Savant, Harry Shearer, Michael Lerner, Vicki Lewis, and Malcolm Danare.

During a nuclear test, the French government inadvertently mutates a lizard nest; years later, a giant lizard makes its way to New York City. Dr. Niko Tatopoulos (Matthew Broderick), an expert on the effects of radiation on animals, is sent by the U.S. government to study the beast. When the creature, dubbed "Godzilla" by news outlets, emerges, a massive battle with the military begins. To make matters worse, Niko discovers that Godzilla has laid a nest of 200 eggs, which are ready to hatch.
