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.
"The battle is on."

The collectors edition steelbook release is an impressive exclusive available at Best Buy. The steelbook packaging is stunning in hand and makes a huge impression. The high-gloss finish is stunning and the ultra-smooth design is fantastic. The front cover art showcases a war raging between King Kong and Godzilla.
The back art shows Godzilla and Kong in a state of "ROAR!" and the iconic imagery is remarkable. The interior art-work showcases a still from the big battle at the end of the film – a perfectly complimentary selection (which will appeal to fans of both King Kong and Godzilla). Bravo.
