Princess Selina Salno facing assassination threat is on a plane to Japan. There is a meteor shower of UFOs. She is drawn to open the plane's door when a meteor destroys the plane. She miraculously reappears in Japan claiming to be from Venus and warning of the rise of King Ghidorah from space. She also predicts the reappearance of Rodan and Godzilla. The Shobijin twins call upon Mothra who is only in its larva stage to save the world. Mothra tries to recruit Rodan and Godzilla but they don't have any reason to save humanity.
There is a good bit of camp in this one and the movie knows it. First of all, the princess story is unnecessarily complicate. It would have been fine for her to simply be an alien from Venus warning about Ghidorah. The movie adds layers where layers are wasting time and space. I like the twins. There's no reason why I wouldn't like an alien in a ball gown. This movie has some fun with the fighting starting with Rodan and Godzilla playing tennis for awhile. That's the moment when it becomes obvious that the filmmaker is having a bit of fun. Instead of the hullabaloo with the princess, the movie could use the twins more and find xenophobic villains looking to kill an alien princess.
