I only replied to the Steelbook Feedback section on this last night wahoo sainsburys

 

[Scholer]

I literally shouted across the room when I saw this . Bring it on FOX

 

[shejon01]

Get in! About time.

 

[bigfub]

If I wasn't in a small, quiet office at the moment that would have got a loud "WooHoo!!" rather than a subdued Oh Yeah

 

[HUBMUSWELL]

Awesome...One of the very best WWII films ever...Based on a true story.

Doubt whether this is a Sainsbury's exclusive so a general offering is on the cards

 

[shejon01]

Would love this to sell well so we see the likes of Bridge over the river Kwai and guns of navarone in steel too

 

[zoneism]

Sweet!

I was eluding to this here yesterday after I kept seeing it on Amazon under the steelbook search results. It's not listed as a steel yet but I reckon it's a holder, so probably going to be a tradewide release

Great movie to get the steel treatment

 

[spurs4eva]

can't wait for this

Beautiful artwork. Hope it is glossy.

+1 hopefully £11.20 or cheaper aswell, come-on Amazon

 

[lgans316]

or 6.29 or 8.49 at Play.com which won't be there when this one is released.

I bet it'll be a regular matte finish.

Going to pass on this though as the film is waaaaay too long and overwinded. Personally I never really saw what the big attraction to this film was. Plus it reminds me of Christmas-passing out on the couch bloated!!!

Great artwork though. Now all we need is 'Escape To Victory'!!
