A modernized, visually stunning take on 'Godzilla' with excellent Blu-ray video and reference audio, though character depth and extras are lacking.

Video: 83

Godzilla's Blu-ray presentation features an exceptional AVC-MPEG 4® encode in a 2.40:1 aspect ratio, with phenomenal 1080p clarity. Black levels are impressively inky, despite the film's dark, moody tone, while detail and color reproduction remain vibrant. However, viewers should be cautious of lighting conditions to avoid image quality issues.

Audio: 88

Godzilla's Blu-ray presentation boasts an ear-shattering DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 soundtrack, delivering exceptional realism with aggressive spacing, thunderous LFE, and clear dialogue; a true reference-quality experience that immerses listeners in dynamic, enveloping soundscapes, perfect for any audiophile.

Extra: 50

The 'Godzilla' Blu-ray extras feature engaging HD-exclusive featurettes, from pseudo-documentary explorations of MONARCH and M.U.T.O. to detailed analyses of iconic scenes and creature designs, though the lack of a director's commentary or trailers suggests a more comprehensive future release could be warranted.

Movie: 74

With a reverential nod to the original franchise, Gareth Edwards' *Godzilla (2014)* delivers a visually stunning portrayal, balancing meticulous build-up, massive destruction, and awe-inspiring set pieces. It might lean on simpler character arcs, but excels in cinematic grandiosity, redefining kaiju films for a modern audience.
