Beauty and the Beast [25th Anniversary Edition] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] [1991]

I’m so happy I was able to purchase this before they sold out at my local Best Buy. A must have for any Disney animated collectors! Visuals are so crisp and clear! I love Steelbook and 4K UltraHD!

This is one of my all time favorites and to finally own it, is awesome. The PQ on the 4K transfer really pops and looks better than it ever has. The real highlight is this SteelBook though. Wow.

A classic Disney movie. One of my all time favorite Disney movies. Tale as old as time.

I love Disney movies. This one is a particular favorite.

Continuing with Disney's recent restorations/treatment of their animated classics, Beauty and the Beast features a terrific 4K version in an understated, classy steelbook presentation. This isn't a flashy case, but has an adult feel that fits a collector sensibility (buy this more for yourself than your kids). Given that the animated classics have been re-released many times, if you're looking to upgrade to 4K, the steelbook is the obvious choice both as a nice shelf piece and as a more collectable version for the future. This version also fixes some of the color grading issues that were present in earlier Blu-Ray releases (such as Belle's hair looking more red than it should be); in terms of comparison with past home-video releases, it is the closest to the old LaserDisc release in terms of visual fidelity to the original theatrical version, but with all the cleanup and visual improvement than HDR allows. Other than the 3D Blu-Ray release (which is a good alternative if watched in 3D; less so if watched in 2D where color grading is also an issue), this new 4K is the best version that's been available on physical media in the past 20 years.

Love it! The animated classic comes to life in a stunning 4K steelbook version that is sure to be a collector's item. If you collect steelbooks, especially the Disney ones, this is one to have. Artwork is beautifully done throughout and the movie looks and sounds wonderful. Get this one now before it becomes out of print. Recommended!

Our Daughter who is a Special needs child absolutely loves this movie and this is the third one we have purchased since the movie was originally released (That's right....she has worn them out watching them over and over again)!

I'm sure everyone knows how great of a movie this original version of Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" is. I'd just like to give proper fanfare to the 4K conversion of the film. The HDR punches up the vibrance and contrast of the film like never before. As for the resolution, the backgrounds look like real paintings now where you can make out the brushstrokes. I've watched this movie close to a hundred times and have never noticed brushstrokes. It actually makes me appreciate it more as a work of art even more now. Also, if your TV setup support Dolby Vision, the 4K Digital Copy provides a Dolby Vision option not available on the disc. As for the Steelbook, although it may seem plain in images, it is absolutely beautiful in hand. The striking imagery on both front and back are enhanced by nice debossing and metallic effects. And the inner inlay image is classic. It has a real "adult" sensibility to its design. You will enjoy this set inside and out.
