Almost Famous [The Bootleg Cut] [Director's Edition] [Unrated] [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

The 4K UHD print is gorgeous. Has the beloved bootleg directors cut. This is the definitive way to watch this movie at home. The greatest rock movie ever, imo. I watch this once a year. The soundtrack is amazing.

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!

Here's an example of where the 4K UHD format really shines. The video transfer on this disc is amazing. Sure the movie is only 22 years old, but it has the look of a new film. I realize that this movie has been released on Blu-Ray a few times, most recently as a Paramount Presents title. But this 4K version is the one to get!

Excellent film with maybe the greatest movie soundtrack ever.. Comes with both the original theatrical cut plus the extended version. The new 4K transfer looks great!

This movie is so personal that you can’t help get swept up in this road adventure to becoming an adult and falling in love with music. Had to get it in 4K.
