Director Jun Fukuda harbored a disdain for this and the other Godzilla films he directed, noting he'd give them all "a minus score." Fukuda was not fond of the choices forced by Toho and described his experience working on the film as "pouring two cups of water into one." When Toho sent him a copy of the film on VHS, he felt it was like "opening up an old wound." Special effects director Teruyoshi Nakano noted that while Fukuda did not enjoy making these films, he was nonetheless a skilled craftsman, a sentiment shared by film historian Stuart Galbraith IV. Galbraith mentioned this when he first interviewed Fukuda; they almost got into an argument with Fukuda telling Galbraith how terrible he thought his films were while Galbraith trying to convince him otherwise. In later years, Fukuda seemed to slightly soften his harsh opinions, as he received numerous fan letters and was surprised by Godzilla's enduring popularity.
