''Monster Zero'' called the film "a curiously uninvolving effort" that "disappoints in nearly all aspects of the production".<ref>[http://monsterzero.us/editorials/editorials.php?catID=&subCatID=3&contentID=89 Review – Ed Godziszewski] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070623175152/http://www.monsterzero.us/editorials/editorials.php?catID=&subCatID=3&contentID=89 |date=2007-06-23 }}. ''[[Monster Zero]]''. June 10, 2002</ref> ''American Kaiju'' criticized the "wildly uneven pacing", "uneven special effects", and "exceedingly lumpy story", but added that "most of the special effects are pretty fair" and "the monster battles are mostly fun."<ref>[http://americankaiju.kaijuphile.com/articles/gvsspaceg.shtml Review - Mike Bogue] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090913114206/http://americankaiju.kaijuphile.com/articles/gvsspaceg.shtml |date=2009-09-13 }}. ''American Kaiju''</ref> ''DVD Cult'' said, "It does have some great destruction scenes and monster battles; two things that make these films worthwhile to begin with. The monster SpaceGodzilla is excellently designed, and is certainly far more menacing than anything Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich ever dreamed up."<ref>[http://www.dvdcult.com/rev_GvsSG.htm Godzilla Double Feature DVD] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081222115345/http://dvdcult.com/rev_GvsSG.htm |date=2008-12-22 }}. ''dvdcult.com''</ref> ''Toho Kingdom'' said the film is "far from terrible" and "an underrated movie" but felt it suffered from an "overly complicated story", "underdeveloped characters", and "forgettable" music.<ref>[http://tohokingdom.com/reviews/romero/godzilla_vs_spacegodzilla.htm Review – Anthony Romero].''Toho Kingdom''.
