Received mine. Matte finish. Dark interior artwork. Overall very disappointed.

Same disc that's available in the UK box set

Same disc that's available in the UK box set

I guess this is going to be a bit less ultra limited then what with all the returns

 

[paulboland]

The Steelbook Disc Artwork is different to the UK Box set
UK Box set Disc artwork

The Steelbook Disc artwork

But going by the extras listing on the Jcard the Steelbook is the same content as previous UK Disc

 

[gaeljet]

the 15 rating/logo is a sticker i guess?

Debossing looks nice but the black and white back is a bit of a let down

 

[sam tyler]

Has anyone actually tried the disc out yet and confirm what version of the film is on there

 

[navydavey]

Got mine today looks ok but judging by the running time its not the "Directors cut"

Still keeping it as its a pretty cool steelbook but I would have prefered the longer cut of the film

 

[Mindcrimes]

Watched and not the director's cut, so zavvi have been mailed . Keeping the steelbook though.

 

[howiesteed]

I'm not tempted to buy this but I think this will look great glossed anyone wanna send it me to do

not the directors cut,
so it doesnt have the seen at the beginning with riggs taking out the fella whos shooting at kids,
then zavvi totally mislead customers..

 

[luke98]

zavvi misleading was gonna buy but its the same movie not directors cut

 

[greg]

im glad i didnt buy this

 

[Tacozilla]

I will probably pick it up during a price drop. Such a shame so many releases over the past few years have boring solid colour, no art on the discs

 

[steelbobawny]

I will dodge this for certain, confirmed as worse in hands, don't like the artwork on the box set either, maybe it's time to go find custom artwork, for each movie.

I'd like to know this too.

Also, since I'm in the US is anyone from the UK in the know about customer rights for falsely advertised products?

 

[sam tyler]

This is so annoying, I can't see any point in this release at all when it's the same disc in the box set which currently costs £10 and it would cost £60 to get the same set in steelies (if they bring them all out). Add to that a rather boring black front cover design and to quote Dragons Den, "I'm out!".

Zavvi have been emailed so this will be going back just as soon as I can get a response with a free returns label or free post address.

Yet again another example of Zavvi's complete ineptitude!!!!!

I'm just waiting for snooloui's defence of Zavvi for inaccurate advertising!!!...AGAIN!!!! (after Maleficent!!!)

Yeah its a sticker. I always peel the BBFC sticker off and put it under the J-Card

 

[TonyStark64]

speedjay....we do have rights regarding falsely advertised products....but Zavvi have never given a flying f*** about that!!! they are a law onto themselves!!
