Watching the Criterion BD of Godzilla: based on knowledge of the BFI DVD, the BFI/Guardian single layer giveaway DVD and the Channel 4 screenings of the 90s, the print is in much better shape (though still of its era), contrast is better than I thought possible and detail is hugely improved, you can see what is going on in the dark scenes/ Excellent picture quality. I doubt it has looked this good since 1954.

The audio though - wow. I have never seen this film with such little soundtrack hiss and such detail and intelligibility. It's not perfect, but it is superb. The sound is really streets ahead of all previous releases.

It's a superb Blu-ray and I recommend you buy it if you have any interest and region A playback.
