IMDb Trailer

When a massive, gilled monster emerges from the deep and tears through the city, the government scrambles to save its citizens. A rag-tag team of volunteers cuts through a web of red tape to uncover the monster's weakness and its mysterious ties to a foreign superpower. But time is not on their side - the greatest catastrophe to ever befall the world is about to evolve right before their very eyes.

Editor's Notes

Note

The US 4K announcement was massive. People who had just imported the Japanese version without English subs immediately regretted it. The steelbook, standard, and deluxe collector's edition all sold well, with the deluxe being the only version that includes the black and white cut. People kept trying to get Criterion to release it, but the existing editions already cover every angle. Top 4 Godzilla films in 4K is now possible with this, Godzilla (1954), Godzilla Minus One, and the Legendary MonsterVerse entries.
