Almost Famous [SteelBook] [Includes Digital Copy] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray] [2000]

Quite simply put, this is my favorite movie of all time, so I was beyond excited to see this was getting a 4K SteelBook release. I could not be happier with this purchase, and I love having the option to choose between which version to watch as I love both. The 4K transfer is beautifully done, and makes for the ultimate watching experience of an all time favorite. A must have for any fan of this film! Especially thankful to have added this one into the collection.

I love this movie and own the regular version, the UK imported, and the bootleg collectors blu-ray. The theatrical and bootleg get their own 4K disc. In my opinion the upgrade in visuals is not a big one from the blu-ray. Sound is same 5.1 DTS-HD but I did notice some more bass and center channel seemed more clear on a couple of lines. Upgrade recommended for huge fans of the movie otherwise the blu-ray is excellent.

Overall happy to have this added to the steelbook collection and does include the bootleg version 4K disc

Excellent transfer for a modern classic from Cameron Crowe. Definitely pick this title up before Best Buy gets rid of all their physical media.

this 4k has an upgraded picture guality compared to the blu-ray release

Great movie. Love watching it many. Looks gorgeous on UHD Blu-ray. Sound design is all fantastic

One of my favorite movies, and this release is excellent. Not only does the picture look great, but it comes with both the theatrical and Bootleg cuts (and while some rightly prefer the theatrical for it's pacing the fact that the Bootleg cut doesn't change the story, I'm a huge fan of the Bootleg cut for the more immersive experience into the world of rock and role circa 1973). If I have a complaint, it's that the digital copy is theatrical only...but as I purchased this specifically to watch on my 4k blu ray player, I won't make any deductions for that. The supplemental material is extensive and lots of great tidbits to explore (full disclosure, this is my first copy, so if you own previous releases, this might not offer much in the way of new supplements). Highly recommended!

Another exquisite entry in the Best Buy steelbook collection. Wonderfully executed with artwork befitting of the film. As for the 4k UHD version of Almost Famous, it's a celebrity in its own right. The transfer is the best the movie has looked on any platform and is another win for physical media. The picture and audio quality is top tier with a balanced use of HDR for a natural palette and skin tones. The dream-like quality of the photography shines through with an appropriate level of film grain. The soundtrack is its own character and fuels the narrative. Overall, this release will delight existing fans and first-time viewers alike. Almost Famous is my favorite of Cameron Crowe's films and features standout performances by Kate Hudson and Patrick Fugit. This coming-of-age tale set in the music scene of the 1970s is a definite recommend.
