A Classic Movie!
on April 3, 2020
Posted by: MOVIEGEEK42
Verified Purchase:Yes
“The Hunt for Red October” is the first film in the Jack Ryan film series. While Adam Baldwin is good as Ryan, though, this film belongs to Sean Connery as a Russian submarine commander who is trying to defect with a state-of-the-art Soviet sub called the Red October. With both the Americans and Soviets searching for him, Jack must try to figure out a way to convince everyone of the commander’s intentions. Plenty of great action and great performances make this a film worth watching again and again!

A Modern Day Classic!

“Ford v. Ferrari” reminds us about what we love about big budget features! Matt Damon and Christian Bale both turn in amazing performances about how Ford decided to compete against Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans! An uplifting film that anyone can enjoy!

A Fun ‘90s Classic!
on March 20, 2020
Posted by: MOVIEGEEK42
Verified Purchase:Yes
Adam Sandler was the king of dumb 1990s comedy and this film found him at the height of his game. If you’re looking for something to turn your brain off to, then look no further than “The Waterboy”!

An Instant Murder Mystery Classic
on March 7, 2020
Posted by: MOVIEGEEK42
Verified Purchase:Yes
Writer and director Rian Johnson turns in a stellar film with plenty of fun humor and plenty of great twists and turns to keep you guessing until the end. Daniel Craig and Ana de Armas turn in fantastic performances in a film that is also filled with great supporting performances from the likes of Jamie Lee Curtis, Michael Shannon and Don Johnson. This was one of the greatest films of 2019 and is a fantastic film to watch again and again!

A Decent Sequel to an Immortal Classic
on March 7, 2020
Posted by: MOVIEGEEK42
Verified Purchase:Yes
Make no mistake about it, “Doctor Sleep” is a bonafide sequel to Stanley Kubrick’s classic 1980 film, “The Shining”. Ewan McGregor does a great job as an adult Danny Torrence who is not only trying to deal with his ability to “shine” but also the demons from his past. This all comes to a head when he has to protect a young girl that is being targeted by a cult that kills those who can shine in order to maintain their youthful lives. The movie may not quite reach the heights of the original classic, but it definitely stands on its own and is a decent sequel to an immortal classic!

A Classic Comedy from Mike Judge
on February 29, 2020
Posted by: MOVIEGEEK42
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you’ve ever worked in an office, then this is the film that’s for you. There’s a chance that you’ve had a boss that you’ve despised or an annoying employee who just doesn’t know how to stop.
Writer and director Mike Judge perfectly captures the mundane life of a group of office workers who decide to take their destinies in their own hands... with disastrous and hilarious results.
Even if you’ve never worked in an office before, you can also enjoy this comedy that has a little something for everyone!

A Moody Thriller with a Decent Twist
on February 29, 2020
Posted by: MOVIEGEEK42
Verified Purchase:Yes
“Shutter Island” is one of Martin Scorsese’s films that is somewhat overlooked in his vast filmography. However, Leonardo DiCaprio excels as a police detective who has to go and investigate a mysterious island that has a few surprises of its own.
Solid direction and cinematography lead the way in a story that is definitely worth either seeing for the first time or revisiting. The 4K Steelbook that just came out also looks pretty cool as well and it definitely captures the gothic mood set in this film.
I say check it out! I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Written by, directed by and co-starring Tom Hanks, this high-energy comedy about fame and friendship dances on to Blu-ray for the very first time. Hanks plays the big-hearted manager of a 1960s pop-rock group called the Wonders that becomes a shooting-star sensation thanks to a delightfully catchy chart-topper called InchThat Thing You DoInch.

An Underrated Comedy Worth Your Attention
on February 29, 2020
Posted by: MOVIEGEEK42
Verified Purchase:Yes
To date, this is the first and one of only two films directed by Tom Hanks. He also wrote the screenplay for this film about the rise and fall of a band called the Wonders. It is a heartwarming film that is heavily underrated.
The special features are nice I guess, but the true gem here is that this release also includes the Director’s Cut of the film that adds a few more layers that was cut out of the theatrical version. With both versions included, though, you can pick and choose whichever you like.
The most important thing, though, is that you go and check out one of the most underrated films out there and show it some love!

One Awesome Package!
on February 29, 2020
Posted by: MOVIEGEEK42
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the Mad Max films and this is the ultimate set if you want all the films! You also get plenty of special features as well, except for “Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome”. Still, I also liked that they included the Black and Chrome version of “Mad Max Fury Road”.
There are only two reasons why this set doesn’t get a perfect score. First off, the only film to have a 4K copy is “Fury Road”. The second reason is that “Fury Road” is also the only film to get a digital code. I get why you wouldn’t do 4K releases for all the films because that would have driven the price up, but there should have at least been digital codes for all four films.
Beyond that, though, if you’re a massive Mad Max fan but hadn’t pulled the trigger on getting the films before, then this set is most definitely for you.

What does Region 0 mean in the description? Will this play in the US?

It should. I guess that may mean that it’s region free?

What is going on with preorders? There appears to be no option and not even any local stores? Is it sold out? Is there an error? Seems crazy it wouldn’t be available when every other steelbook coming out, including Star Wars and 1917, have the option.

For some reason, when the release date gets closer, Best Buy stops taking pre-orders. After that, you have to just try your luck that a copy will still be available when it comes out.

The exclusive steelbook for this sold out at every best buy near me in a day. Is there any chance that they will be restocked sometime in the future?

Sometimes they are, but usually once a Steelbook is sold out, you have to get the regular version.
