Was just about to buy this at my local CEX store today for £6 but was bought by someone else, zavvi price drop was just on point at the right time!

 

[vicwheels]

I bought this one too when the price dropped, it is a nicer Steelbook than in the picture.

They also Dropped After Earth 9.99, Gremlins 6.99, The Town 5.99, The Adjustment Bureau 6.95, Sherlock Holmes 8.45, ET 6.99 & those are just the ones I noticed.

I will be buying a few more of these steels now they dropped.

[sarcasm] So glad I still have this sealed and paid £14.99 for it [/sarcasm]

One of those classics that I've never seen... Not for long tho! £6? Bargain!

 

[Gamesgaryjp]

Grabbed it at that price.

 

[MaxG93]

Got mine today and can't say I'm impressed, front art is a bit blurry and dull.
Though it was cheap, just glad I didn't pay out full whack for it.

Got mine as well. Agree kinda but was gonna buy the amaray for the same price a few months ago and had an urge to watch this recently so you do the maths. Not that bad but not that good either - bought it for a more ideal price for what it's worth! Wondering if other steels I've wanted but not wanted to pay full whack for will drop in price soon...

 

[snooloui]

I agree that it is a poor release. £5.99 is probably a fair price and i'm glad I didn't pay anymore than that.

 

[BDDB]

I received my £5.99 copy today & I agree with other comments on here that at this price it is just about worth it.
A very poor finish but not quite as bad as the UK Elysium, which is a contender for worst of 2014.

yeah,im one of the few that paid full whack,great movie but very disapointing steelbook,it's not the artwork it's the paint (or whatever,not a steelbook design pro here) it's just so washed out and nasty,and the embossing is very weak.

I agree. The artwork isn't bad and had this had a full gloss finish like The Goonies for example, it would have been really nice. They also mucked the title up a bit, the letters are way too close together. Not the worst Steelbook ever, but not as nice as it could and should have been.
