    Honestly I always liked this movie. The audio is terrific so I wouldn't take any less from Sony, the Playstation creators. The picture is really good to the point where it highlights the outdated VFX. An example would be the main cover scene where the city landscape looks gorgeous, but you can see Godzilla is just superimposed into the screen. Overall I would recommend this

    I’m one of the few who find this film entertaining. Not perfect but entertaining. This was the film that introduced a new generation to Godzilla (be it good or bad). This 4k transfer looks and sounds good! The steelbook itself looks better in person! A definite must for any collector. Product was in perfect condition.

    I enjoyed the movie as a kid, and still enjoy it for what it was today. Not the original Godzilla we are all used to seeing, but it was enjoyable to watch. Seen it many times. I also like the steelbook that the movie came in. Great item!

    In this reimagining of the classic monster franchise, director Roland Emmerich takes a fresh approach to the iconic creature. The film follows the chaos that ensues when a giant mutated lizard, affectionately nicknamed "Zilla" by fans, wreaks havoc on New York City. One of the standout aspects of the movie is its impressive special effects. The CGI used to bring Godzilla to life is truly remarkable, especially considering the time when the film was made. The creature's size and scale are awe-inspiring, and the destruction it causes is visually stunning. The action sequences in Godzilla are fast-paced and exhilarating. From the thrilling chase scenes through the streets of New York to the intense battles between the military and the monster, the film keeps you on the edge of your seat. The sheer scale of the destruction caused by Godzilla is mind-boggling, and it's a spectacle to behold. While the film received some criticism for deviating from the traditional Godzilla mythology, it's important to approach it as a standalone monster movie. If you can set aside expectations and enjoy it for what it is, you'll find a thrilling and entertaining experience. The cast of Godzilla is also worth mentioning. Matthew Broderick delivers a solid performance as the scientist caught in the middle of the chaos, and Jean Reno brings a level of intensity to his role as a French secret agent. The chemistry between the characters adds depth to the story and keeps you invested in their journey. Overall, Godzilla (1998) is a fun and action-packed monster movie that offers a fresh take on the iconic creature. The impressive special effects, thrilling action sequences, and solid performances make it an enjoyable watch. Just remember to approach it with an open mind and embrace it as its own unique interpretation of the Godzilla story.

    If you have never seen the movie before and want a Godzilla movie that was promoted so much in the U.S.? Then this is the movie for you. It has a great steel book design. It looks great with it's packaging. But the movie is just a straight transfer from Blu Ray to 4k HD. All the extra features are the same from the Blu Ray. Great for a Godzilla Collector and fan.

    The steenbok looks incredible with the nice shine to it. I love how cheesy this movie is and glad to have it in my collection. The 59.99 price in store was a little worrisome but Best Buy price matched their website.

    1998 Godzilla isn’t as bad as many let on, but lacks the heart and soul of the Japanese films and even the monsterverse GodIlla movies. Jean Reno’s character should have been the focus (aside from the creature)

    The movie itself is fine. If it wasn't called Godzilla it wouldn't have received as much hate. But the packaging is very cool and the picture/sound is very nice.
