Godzilla's Revenge is presented here in a double sided format, with the film's original aspect ratio of 2.35:1 appearing on one side, which also has the extras, while a 1.33:1, or full screen, version of the film is on the other. Both sides of the disc vastly differ in terms of the quality of the video presentation, so it would be best address each side separately.

The 2.35:1, or Toho Scope, side has the notably stronger presentation of the two. This side, overall, has Simitar's strongest video presentation, although that isn't saying much anymore. The colors on this release tend to be vibrant, although there is a slight yellow tint to the film. Unfortunately, the colors tend to be drowned out by the brightness and contrast on this release, which are turned way up. This causes some details, like open windows, to appear almost entirely white, as seen here. In regards to digital inconsistencies, they are easily the weakest part of this transfer. The entire film appears rather blurred and pixilated, thanks to the large amount of artifacting, while shimmering, a rainbow band of colors on finer details, appears often. As for the print used, it's the UPA version of the film, which means that it sports a different title sequence than the Japanese version along with different music to accompany it. As for the shape of the print, it's actually in fairly good condition. Scratches do appear on occasion, granted, but more or less it looks good.

The 1.33:1 aspect ratio side, on the other hand, is generally not worth the time. Beyond the obvious fact that it horribly crops the Toho Scope film, the colors here are anything but vibrant. In fact, the entire film is discolored, appearing far more yellow than it should, while some of the stock footage sequences appear to have a brown tint to them. Sadly, the brightness and contrast aren't handled very well here either. Both appear to be set too high, although the brightness level tends to drown out the contrast. In regards to digital inconsistencies, well it wouldn't be a Simitar release without them. The movie appears rather blurry and very pixilated, on account of the artifacting, while shimmering appears on finer details during the film. As for the print used, it's the same on both sides: the UPA release of the film. However, the quality of the print on this side is noticeably off as the number of scratches found during the course of the film is painfully obvious and are rather distracting at several points during the film.

There are two audio tracks on this disc, a mono presentation of Godzilla's Revenge and a 5.1 surround presentation. Both are the English dubbed version of the film, so sadly no original Japanese audio track to be found. Overall, the mono track tends to sound better, but one can't discredit the 5.1 audio track. The surround track here does present some nice speaker distinction, although it sounds a little forced at points. It's much better than what would later be found on Classic Media's release of the film, however. Thankfully, there aren't any pops or any other audio distortions to be heard during the course of the film on either audio track.

It should be noted that the surround presentation is only available on the widescreen side of the DVD.

Bottom line, this disc falls short compared to Tristar's recent releases, but the great looking widescreen print of the dubbed version of the film does make this a desirable item to Godzilla fans, although it doesn't really merit spending more than $20 for it.

This disc is also featured in the DVD box set: Godzilla.
