Most things I wrote about the second part of Shusuke Kaneko's Gamera trilogy apply to Revenge of Iris as well. So just a few observations.
It's very strange that the kaiju eiga that strive to be as realistic as possible are also the ones that makes the heaviest use of mysticistic poppycock. Mysticistic poppycock with a strict internal logic, though.
Every film that relies so heavily on its female characters to solve problems gets very special ideological brownie points (sometimes also called "my undying love").
