5.0 out of 5 stars Did this battle take place 1,000 's of years ago?, September 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: King Kong Vs. Godzilla [VHS] (VHS Tape)

WWWWOOOOHHHHOOOO!!!!!! After viewing all of the Godzilla movies except Godzilla vs The Smog Monster & Godzilla vs MechaGodzilla 2, I'd have to say KING KONG vs GODZILLA is the positivly absoluty, incredibly, truly most Godzillariffic and Kingkongastic Godzilla movie ever made.I especially like the part when Godzilla Karate kicks King Kong (really in movie).Anyway you would like this 1962-1963 movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars An All Time Classic!, November 4, 2001

This review is from: King Kong Vs. Godzilla [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This would have to be considered one of the all time greatest
Japanese monster movies. King Kong is captured and brought to the civilized world. Godzilla comes onto the scene with his radioactive fire breath. It is a battle waiting to happen. The
Japanese homeland is torn asunder when the two behemoths do finally meet.The land is burned and smashed in every conceivable
fashion. At times if you really looked hard you could tell that
Godzilla and King Kong were men in suits and hand puppets. That
alone did not detract from the film.You would still have to classify it as a classic. Buy and watch this movie. You will never forget it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Godzilla Vs King Kong - Good Times 1998-2001 release, December 3, 2002

Godzilla Vs King Kong (1963)(Goodtimes 1998-2001) 2/5
This disc contains a 4:3 picture (I don't know if this is the original ratio so I won't comment)and has scratches throughout. The colours are not very good and look washed out and the whole picture looks flat. It has a mono soundtrack which is passable. The extras are, Subtitles in English, Spanish and French(although only english as an audio option), producion note, which is actually one page of text which gives you a very very small insight into the film. It has chapters too and when you put the disc in it goes straight to the menu no copyright notices or anything. The version on the disc is the american edited version and only that.
Good Points: It's watchable if you don't have any other copy.
Bad Points:It doesn't have an option for the japanese version, the film hasn't been restored at all and not even a trailer as an extra??
The rating is for the DVD, I rated it 2 stars because it is watchable as a bog standard version of the movie but more dedicated fans should save their money for a future release.
