The Queen of the Monsters arrives! Mothra may mostly be known for being a frequent sidekick/enemy to Godzilla, but starting with her debut film instead of a Godzilla appearance really changes the foundation for her identity. It's an excellent movie, full of both character and social commentary. Shame about the blackface though. If you've ever scoffed at the idea of a giant moth as a movie monster... maybe hold your judgments.
