This is probably one of the best kaiju movies I have ever seen (and I have seen most of them). A major plot element of Revenge Of Iris concerns a girl who blames Gamera for the death of her parents. It&#8217;s true: Gamera smashed her parents&#8217; apartment building into rubble while fighting the Gyaos. Of course, had Gamera not fought the Gyaos (or had Gamera not existed at all), the death toll from the unstoppable Gyaos would have been much higher, but as you might imagine, that&#8217;s small consolation to the girl.<\/p>\n<p>I think some of the best villains are those with understandable motivations. In the case of Ayana (the aforementioned orphan girl), you feel sorry for her and sympathize with her, even though she is tragically misguided in blaming Gamera for her parents&#8217; death: she ought to blame the Gyaos. But it&#8217;s an all-too-human failing to place blame using emotion rather than reason. That&#8217;s an element that&#8217;s hard to pull off without being either heavy-handed or simply ridiculous (particularly in a movie about giant monsters), but I think this movie does it successfully.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just finished watching Gamera 3: The Revenge Of Iris.
