Buy it now on Amazon for only $29.99


Growing up in a house full of brothers, I rarely had a say in the television shows and movies we would watch.  And, as you can image it was a lot of sci-fi and war type movies.  Early on I was introduced to Godzilla and Kong, and over the years, have seen countless movies featuring these characters, each trying to outdo the last movie.  Out of all the Godzilla movies I have seen over the years, I have to say that this Godzilla, which released to 4K Ultra HD today from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment is by far my favorite.  Yes, it was released back in 2014, but as I sat to watch it again with my husband the other night, I couldn't help marvel in the special effects and story line.  You really are drawn in from the start, and find yourself on the edge of your seat at time, just waiting to see what happens next. And, even if you saw you it before, this one of those movies, that you are still moved and breathless, waiting to see the scenes and story lines play out.  

If you have exhausted all your movie options and are looking for something new to watch, or simply want to relive your childhood with a well-made Godzilla movie, I highly recommend this newly released 4K Ultra HD version of Godzilla.  It was a hit in my house, and one move we will watch and time again.

SYNOPSIS

"In this gritty, realistic sci-fi action epic, Godzilla returns to its roots as one of the world's most recognized monsters. Directed by Gareth Edwards and featuring an all-star international cast, this spectacular adventure pits Godzilla against malevolent creatures that, bolstered by humanity's scientific arrogance, threaten our very existence."
