During a nuclear test, the French government inadvertently mutates a lizard nest; years later, a giant lizard makes its way to New York City.

When the creature, dubbed "Godzilla" by news outlets, emerges, a massive battle with the military begins. To make matters worse, Niko discovers that Godzilla has laid a nest of 200 eggs, which are ready to hatch.

Director: Roland Emmerich
