Here’s some good news for movie fans: Godzilla Minus One is finally available to preorder in physical format (see it at Amazon). No release date has been announced yet, but you can lock in your copy of Godzilla Minus One in a limited-edition 4K steelbook version, or on Blu-ray or DVD. It’s your choice. Let’s dive in and see where to buy it and what comes with it.
Preorder Godzilla Minus One
- Also on 4K UHD (non-steelbook) – $49.98
- Also on Blu-ray – $39.98
- Also on DVD – $34.98
Written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, Godzilla Minus One is set in post-World War II Japan and follows a former kamikaze pilot suffering from PTSD after encountering the titular beast. Filmed on a surprisingly low budget for a special effects-filled blockbuster, it nevertheless won the Oscar for best visual effects at this year’s ceremony.
It’s worth noting that these physical copies do not include Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color, the black-and-white version of the movie. For that, you’d need to get the Japan Collector’s Edition, which is exclusive to Godzilla.com and is currently unavailable. If it makes you feel any better, that version's special features lack English subtitles, which isn't ideal for non-Japanese speakers, for obvious reasons.
If you’d rather watch Godzilla Minus One without purchasing a physical copy, you can actually see the whole thing right now on Netflix. But streaming quality isn’t as good as what you’ll get from a 4K UHD disc, and the movie could vanish from Netflix pretty much at any time.
