# Godzilla Parental Guide This PG-13 action film features a giant irradiated lizard destroying ships and cities with strong violence throughout. While language and sexual content are mild, the frequent destruction sequences and intense monster attacks may frighten younger children. Best suited for teenagers rather than elementary-aged children.

French nuclear tests irradiate an iguana into a giant monster that viciously attacks freighter ships in the Pacific Ocean. A team of experts, including Niko Tatopoulos, conclude that the oversized reptile is the culprit. Before long, the giant lizard is loose in Manhattan as the US military races to destroy the monster before it reproduces and it's spawn takes over the world.
