Here's another great looking steelbook from BestBuy. It's glossy and it just looks amazing. Though being glossy means it's a fingerprint magnet (which doesn't bother me at all). The front artwork is essentially the same as the movie poster, but the ship is also visible, along with the planet. The backside has artwork from inside of the ship, and inside the steelbook contains a shot of the hibernation pods (you can see Jim and Aurora in them). Moreover, Sony is smart in making a 3-disc 4k + 3D + standard 2D + digital hd combo. I wish all movie companies/distributors provided combos like this because it makes it near future proof. The movie itself somewhat depends on your views. It had some controversy regarding the two main characters. Basically, it looks like Aurora developed Stockholm Syndrome with her captor Jim. I thought it was a bit absurd to even say she developed that condition. It's not nearly psychological what Jim did, and Aurora is a strong character who seems more than capable of fending herself (<<<<SPOILER: she beat up Jim and maybe thought about killing him when she found out why she woke out of hibernation early>>>>). Nevertheless, I thought it was a good sci-fi flick with some romance, drama, and wonder. Any action sequences are hardly prevalent in this film so don't expect it. Overall, it's a great steelbook to add to your collection. If you don't mind the controversial part of the movie, if you think it's there, and you like sci-fi romance, then watch it. Rent before buying, and if you plan to own this movie, get the steelbook!

This might be the best science fiction romance film I’ve ever seen. The acting was outstanding thanks to an amazing script brought to life by Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence. I didn't think I was going to like this film as much as I did considering I’m not really a fan of Jennifer Lawrence, but nevertheless Lawrence won me over with an outstanding performance guiding both Pratt’s journey as well the audiences hence preventing everyone from being lost in space.

I have been following Jennifer Lawrence since her Hunger Games trilogy and she doesn't disappoint. Me and my daughter saw this in the movies and liked it so much that we wanted to get the DVD. Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence had great chemistry on this film. I really like these type of sci-fi movies that make you think if that could be the future!
