Action-Packed
on July 16, 2021
Posted by: Goody
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have really enjoyed watching streaming versions of this film, so I was glad to be able to get a 4K copy.
Good quality video and sound. A few dark scenes are a little heavy on film grain, but most of the scenes looked good.
While I've enjoyed watching this multiple times, I only watched the sequel once, and didn't like it, so I declined to buy the combo / 2-movie package.

Double Fun

Verified Purchase:Yes
Fun action-adventure films,
The first movie was a little heavy on the film grain / not as sharp as I would expect for 4K. The second film had excellent video quality, much better than the first. Sound quality was good.
I owned these on Blu-Ray, so I was glad to be able to buy this combo pack in 4K.

MIB International
on July 1, 2021
Posted by: Goody
Verified Purchase:Yes
While I don't think this sequel is as good as the original three movies, it still has a lot of the zany fun of the first three films, just with an international flavor. Nice, crisp 4K video and great sound; with excellent artwork on this steel book version. Glad to be able to add this to my collection.

Celebrating 20 years of the iconic sci-fi comedy, this box set features all three films from the hit MiB franchise, fully restored in 4K. Agents Kay and Jay are responsible for monitoring and policing alien activity on Earth, tackling renegade monsters, intergalactic invaders and even time travel.

I wish they had remastered this in a 4K release, but this Blu-ray has really good image and sound quality. I hadn't seen this for a few years, so I really enjoyed seeing it again.
A true classic and a nice snapshot of the times.
Nice art work on the steelbook case.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Really glad they remastered this in 4K. Great image and sound quality on this set. I really enjoyed watching all 4 movies, one after the other. Contrary to most critics, I also enjoy "The Crystal Skull".
Looking forward to the next Indiana Jones film.
Nice art work on the Steelbook cases. which come in a cardboard case.

Tom Hardy at his best
on June 4, 2021
Posted by: Goody
Verified Purchase:Yes
After watching previews / ads, I didn't think I'd like this film; but I really like most Tom Hardy films, so I thought I'd watch it once.
I was pleasantly surprised to find it much better than I expected, so I purchased this 4K version.
Tom Hardy was an excellent choice to cast for the lead role. His wit and humor really make this film shine.
Looking forward to the teased sequel with Woody Harrelson.

Thought-provoking film
on June 4, 2021
Posted by: Goody
Verified Purchase:Yes
I really liked this film, but some people may find the slow pace of most of the film to be a little boring.
Includes many flashbacks and jumps forward in time, so it can be somewhat confusing on the first viewing.
Thought-provoking film about cultures, languages, aliens and time.

Great cult collector set.
on June 4, 2021
Posted by: Goody
Verified Purchase:Yes
Not for everyone, but a cult classic for many. Need to watch it more than once. Reflects some of the culture of that time, but also relates to some of the current culture wars. Creative storyline with interesting subplots. Great cast. Special collector set, comes with many extras. Contains both the Theatrical and Director's cut.
NOTE: Arrow Video did not correctly manufacture the Theatrical disc, so it will not play correctly on some players (including my Panasonic UB9000). Arrow is aware of the manufacturing problem and is re-manufacturing replacement Theatrical Version discs. Replacements might be available later in June 2021 at no charge (proof of purchase required).
Visit the Arrow website for information.

Guy Ritchie at his best
By Goody
Guy Ritchie's best movie. Great cast, great plot, great acting.
I previously owned this on DVD, then on Blu-Ray. I was happy to see it released in a 4K version. I bought the Steelbook, which ahs nice cover art.
Good quality video and excellent soundtrack.
If you're not familiar with British accents and slang, you may need to watch it more than once to really understand what is being said.
Many funny twists, turns and subplots.

In reply to the question about the region coding
July 22, 2021
Yes, I watched this in the US on a US / North American Region Panasonic UB9000 Player. I assume this 4K version is region-free, but I don't know that for certain.
Will definitely play in the US.
