V for Vendetta [SteelBook] [Includes Digital Copy] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray/Blu-ray] [Only @ Best Buy] [2006]

This is a awesome movie. Very well done and looks absolutely fantastic in 4K. Still has a slight film-like look, but the details are very sharp and the blacks are inky and deep. HDR pops also. SteelBook is gorgeous...

This was absolutely excellent. I heard this was good, and it was. Very well done and looked incredible on Blu-ray. I definitely am going to double dip since they just now announced a 4K release. Loved this movie.

V for Vendetta is an excellent terrific story from 2006, how people were tested and died, only one survived to pay back. Best is in the Blu-ray

I think it's a good looking steelbook for a good movie.

Though it may seem an old chestnut by now, as it came out originally some 14 years ago, the film adaptation of V For Vendetta has seemingly greater resonance today than ever before. There are many parallels between the events of the movie and current events in today's sociopolitical landscape. I won't go into them here for brevity's sake, but a keen viewer will pick them out quite readily. This package contains a new 4K transfer of the movie and some new extras; as I don't yet have a 4K TV, I was limited to watching the included regular Blu-ray Disc. A word of warning about this disc, though--it's the exact same disc released in 2008, when the Blu-ray format was just getting off the ground. It has a Dolby TrueHD track, but playback defaults to a plain-vanilla Dolby 5.1 track instead, so you'll have to change it yourself if you want lossless audio. Everything else about the disc is the same as before, but that shouldn't stop you from enjoying the movie otherwise. The 4K disc has Dolby Atmos and a few new extras exclusive to that disc, as well as the new transfer. "Remember, remember, the 5th of November..." With a little help from this movie, you may never forget it.

Okay, the film itself is easily 5 stars. The steelbook is 5 stars. But the 4K transfer is only mediocre at best. For some reason, this film on DVD and Bluray (and now 4K), has always had some light leaking/banding issues in many scenes, like the dark room with the table of officials and Sutler on the giant screen or the fiery "V" in the introduction - everything bright has halos that don't blend into the darkness. I assumed with a high bitrate on the 4K disc, this banding wouldn't occur, but it does. This is improved a little bit with 4K, but it's still noticeable. I don't know if they'll ever fix this or not. It would be nice. But until then, this is still the way to go.

Nice looking steelbook. Great addition to the steelbook collection! Keep'em com'in Bestbuy!!!

This is one of my all time favorite movies and to see it get such a beautiful release like this was fantastic. It’s even more beautiful in person and the transfer is perfection. Again and again, Best Buy knocks it out of the park and just proves further more why I love shopping at Best Buy so much! I look forward to seeing more breathtaking movies get jaw dropping releases like this. It also makes me really happy that there is such a range of movies being released from Best Buy as well, you have your 50’s-60’s classics and some of the 80’s-90’s gritty nostalgia, and the 00’-2010’s you know and love. They all get lovely treatments and I’m so here for it!
