Gorgo is a classic science fiction monster movie, released in 1961. Directed by Eugène Lourié, the movie tells the story of a giant sea creature that is discovered off the coast of Ireland. The movie opens with a group of fishermen catching a mysterious creature in their nets. Unbeknownst to them, the creature is a baby sea monster, which they soon sell to a circus owner named Joe Ryan. Ryan sees the potential to make a fortune off the creature and decides to take it to London to showcase it to the world.

However, things take a turn when the baby monster's enormous mother emerges from the sea in search of her offspring. The mother is furious and wreaks havoc on London, destroying buildings and causing chaos in the streets.

As Ryan and his team struggle to deal with the monster, scientists attempt to study the creature to learn more about it. They quickly realize the significance of the discovery, and try to find a way to capture the creature and bring it back to the sea.

The movie is a thrilling adventure that combines action, suspense, and science fiction elements. The special effects are a highlight of the film, especially for its time. The creature design for Gorgo is impressive and terrifying, and the destruction scenes are well-crafted and realistic.

The film also explores the ethical implications of capturing and exploiting a rare and possibly endangered species. Ryan's motivations for capturing the baby monster are purely financial, and he is willing to put the creature's life in danger for his own gain. However, the scientists and military personnel in the film recognize the importance of the discovery and the potential impact it could have on the scientific community.

Overall, Gorgo is a classic monster movie that still holds up today. The film's themes of conservation and the consequences of exploiting nature are just as relevant now as they were in 1961. The action and suspense keep you on the edge of your seat, and the special effects are still impressive even by today's standards. This is a must-watch for any science fiction or monster movie fan.

Gorgo is a 1961 science fiction movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 12 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.6.
