A mysterious alien entity, dubbed Ultraman, appears to save humanity from the giant monsters. The Japanese government established the SSSP, the S-Class Species Suppression Protocol, to eliminate all threats. In a reimagining of the Ultraman story, giant unidentified lifeforms known as "S-Class species" begin to emerge on Earth. However, Shinji Higuchi's direction is too matter-of-fact for its own good, rendering the film cold when there's no battles happening. Its special effects, shrewdly combining retro scale-model special effects and CGI, has real weight and it brilliantly creates a look of its own. Shin Ultraman, the second entry in the Shin tokusatsu series, is an entertaining retro throwback to old practical effects kaiju films.
