Customer Ratings & Reviews

Aside from the Godzilla movie a few years ago, this recent version of the Godzilla franchise more closely resembles the original Japanese versions, along with other Atomic age monsters in tow. Since the original was loosely a political commentary on using nuclear weapons after WWII, this movie delves a little deeper and tries to intertwine facets from the original with this modern day movie. All in all, a good interpretation of the Godzilla movies.

This is a good movie. It is light years better than the last Godzilla piece of garbage with Matthew Broderick. That being said, don't bother with the 3D version because there is almost no 3D at all in this movie. I saw it in IMAX 3D and it was a complete waste of money. So, in summary, forget that the 3D version exists and buy this one. It's a great Godzilla movie.

When it was announced that Gareth Edwards would be helming a revitalization into the Godzilla franchise, I perked up immediately. From following the director, I knew we were in for a fresh perspective. While I found parts to be a little shallow, in all I got a wonderful new take on one of my childhood favorites. I cannot wait to see what the next installment holds.

I didn't have many expectations going into Godzilla, but what I tried to do was to stay away from spoilers. I did look at reviews such as rotten-tomatoes, but I always read those with caution and reserve my own judgements until I get an opportunity to watch the movie. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I thought it was well-done. The effects were awesome, and the blu-ray quality both video and sound were top-notch. Overall this was a good purchase.

Thee Godzilla saga has finally begun here. It took way to long, but, It was worth the wait. We been asking for a long awaited film & soundtrack, finally came. The sequel that will follow up to this will not be the beginning, noir thee end. But a long awaited saga that the 60s & 70s got over seas. Now, the king of monsters is here to stomp city by city, & us humans have to help Godzilla fight.

Godzilla (2014) marks the triumphant return of fun monster movies. Godzilla returns with modern effects and a beefed up story line but still remains true to his origins. With all of the activity in the plot it is still a monster vs. monster slugfest not to be missed. If you ran home from school to see monster week on the 4:00 movie and cheer Godzilla to victory relive your youth in an all new hi-def adventure. It is just as fun as you remember!

This is a great upgrade over the bluray. The 4K improves the darkness and makes the film a lot more detailed where it counts. Not only that but the steelbook itself is just solid with great artwork on the front, back, and interior. This is definitely worth the upgrade and the steelbook is the best way to go.

This movie is no doubt the greatest of its time the visuals of the king of monsters himself was just outright perfection every detail was crisp and the sound especially with 4K Dolby Atmos audio was just so unreal each sound came out as if you were in the movie.

Honestly, I was expecting very little going into this due to the previous American Godzilla, which might as well have been a poorly directed comedy, but this was actually a very entertaining movie. There isn't much Godzilla in it and the action is spaced out, but if more movies follow then I'd say it is a pretty good start to a series. Also, I was worried the CGI would end up destroying this movie for me, but it actually was pretty well done.

Gareth Edwards delivers a much better western take on Japan's proudest import than Roland Emmerich did with that garbage in 1998. Could have used more action scenes with Godzilla, but I do appreciate the sense of scale the cinematography provides.

Overall good, as monster movies go. It incorporated some new twists into the Godzilla legend, but I thought it was well done and in keeping with the original themes and iconography of the Japanese/Toho movies. Good action and a decent story, albeit with glaring plot oversights... But it's a monster movie; we don't watch it for the compelling narrative, do we?

America finally got a Godzilla movie to be proud of. Intelligent, suspenseful & beautifully shot; this movie delivers the goods on the King of Monsters' 60th Anniversary! Solid acting from Ken Watanabe, Bryan Cranston, David Strathairn & young Aaron Taylor-Johnson support a plot that steadily unfolds to the gigantic clash at the end of the film. Top notch special effects & cinematography make this blockbuster a monster hit- pun intended!

Everyone else in the house was hoping it wasn't going to turn into the last Godzilla movie. And it didn't. My only disappointment was *Spoiler Alert* Bryan Cranston dying so early on. I was looking forward to him being in the entire movie. Having said that, I really liked this one (other than that one thing) and am actually looking forward to the next one.

I liked this movie very much. The visuals were outstanding. The final scene with the monster fight was icing on the cake. The only problem I have with the movie, Godzilla wasn't in the movie enough. You would expect a movie about Godzilla would've had a lot more scenes with the star monster. I hope Skull Island isn't the same way.

The movie was good in a typical, gritty reboot of a famous character kind of way. I wish they had shown a bit more of the monster, as I thought multiple times "Oh, this is the big reveal", only to then have the focus be turned back on the main human characters. Other than that the special effects were very cool and I enjoyed watching. Would recommend.

An enjoyable popcorn flick. It's Godzilla, not Lawrence of Arabia, so don't expect much in the way of superior acting. The monsters are the show, and Godzilla never looked better. The plot is secondary and I am not going to spoil it. Needless to say, there is more than one giant critter reeking havoc. Which monster will win? Hail to the King, baby!

The movie itself is fantastic. Bryan Cranston does an amazing job as one of the main protagonists. The story is believable and realistic (despite a giant massive dinosaurish creature attacking the city). The origins of Godzilla are more like the original (no reproduction into raptors). This movie is beyond better than the 1990s Broderick version.

What a nice surprise to watch a movie and be do enthralled that half the movies in your mind and then comes Godzilla, looking good and angry. I usually take a BR break but couldn't more or put on pause because I was so caught up in it. The CFI is perfect got this movie even though, I didn't notice. Also do yourself a favor and watch with headphones, you're in the middle of it. I love it and glad it's part of my collection.

Inadvertently took advantage of the $14.99 3D Blu with purchase of Hannibal S2. Great blind buy deal for this movie. Reason being it's a fun summer movie and makes Godzilla interesting again. Definite plot holes, but the premise of the story and effects carry the film. If going to purchase, go with the 3D version. It looked amazing on the 3D tv.

Godzilla (2014) is a very exciting and awe inspiring film! I love big monsters and Godzilla is the king! This the newest American version of the character was well thought out and very well executed, much better than the 1997 Godzilla film! I highly recommend this film for any fan of the science fiction genre!
