Godzilla vs. Kong is a must-see action-packed epic that fans of giant monster movies will want to experience in 3D. The epic cross-over stars Alexander Skarsgard, Millie Bobby Brown, Rebecca Hall, Eiza Gonzalez, and Kyle Chandler. Godzilla is pitted against King Kong in an ultimate battle. Which powerful and super-sized monster will emerge victorious? Place your bets. A showdown of epic proportions.
One of the best blockbusters to arrive in 2021, Godzilla vs. Kong is well worth watching for its outstanding special effects and edge-of-your-seat action. Featuring epic cinematography by Ben Seresin (World War Z, Unstoppable) and a blisteringly fun score composed by Junkie XL (Deadpool, Zack Snyder's Justice League). The production scope is on a massive scale and there is so much to appreciate throughout the feature-film.
Adam Wingard (Blair Witch, The Guest) directs the action front-and-center while not forgetting to tell a good story. From a screenplay by Eric Pearson (Black Widow, Thor: Ragnarok) and Max Borenstein ( Godzilla, Kong: Skull Island), Godzilla vs. Kong is a bigger-than-life experience that has plenty of outstanding visuals and fun for the entire family. A must-see for 3D enthusiasts.
An epic adventure in 3D.
For more information on Godzilla vs. Kong and an alternate take, please refer to the review by my colleague Randy Miller III.
Arriving on 3D Blu-ray from Warner Bros., Godzilla vs. Kong is presented in 1080p MPEG-4 MVC encoded high definition in the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.39:1 widescreen. The presentation quality on the release is astonishing from start to finish. An epic adventure that must be seen in 3D.
The 3D depth on the release is top-notch and easily pulls viewers in to experiencing the action-packed fun of Godzilla vs. Kong. The sheer scope of seeing Godzilla and King Kong battling it out in 3D is mind-blowing to watch unfold. While the film might be light on added "pop- out" 3D effects, the presentation has an outstanding level of clarity and depth that more than makes up for any lack of pop-out effects. The cinematography is never overly dark and the visuals soar with the presentation. A 3D slam-dunk that enthusiasts won't want to miss.
The release includes a earth-shattering DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 surround sound presentation. The lossless audio presentation is superb and dynamic. The LFE sounds terrific without ever becoming distorted. An excellent high-resolution track without boomy bass (while still packaging a mighty punch), the audio is a perfect match for the exceptional 3D encode. While the 3D disc lacks the Dolby Atmos track (provided on the standard Blu-ray edition), the DTS HD Master Audio is no slouch and easily gets the job done.
The release is a 3D Blu-ray + Blu-ray combo pack edition. The pack also includes a digital code. On disc supplements remain the same as what is provided on the standard 2D Blu-ray disc (as reviewed here).
Godzilla vs. Kong is a non-stop adrenaline rush of exciting action and adventure. The filmmaking is fun and epic in scope. The filmmakers never forget to tell a good story while still letting the epic battles between Godzilla and Kong take flight. The 3D Blu-ray edition is a must-own with a truly outstanding presentation that has absorbing depth and immersion. Don't miss it. Highly recommended.
