Looks average.

Agree. It's quite a lazy Steelbook for the high price. Pretty much the same cover art reused on the inside. And the back's a bit of a cop out

Also that red circle on the front just reminds me of the PRESTIGE Steelbook.

Anyone know who distributed this over here? Was it Universal?

In the UK? E-One

The maze image was obviously a big part of the film so I can see where they were going with the back artwork.

Pretty harsh, I wouldn't say EUR 22 is a high price for a new release amazon are asking EUR 16 for amaray and it's 8 less than The Wolf of Wall Street steelbook.

The fronts got a nice gloss finish and artwork is OK, all the posters had Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal head shots I believe.

Have you even seen this movie as I think putting the maze on the back with spot gloss effect is relevant and looks great, at least it's not got a printed back in fact no German text at all, glad I ordered.

I've seen the movie. I just think it's a lazy effort with the choices of images. At least it's got a gloss finish. The movie's quite good too.

The fu***NG pop-ups on those photos are something else

There you go bud.

Glossy!?
The Film was awesome, but the steel isnt that good.

I really like it needs a price drop though

 

[darczap]

Ordered one. There were 576 copies left when I checked.

I had a 5 euro credit on .de floating around, so I used it for this and Cloud Atlas. Got both shipped for 28 euros.

 

[djs1401]

So glad I ordered this, seeing as it's glossy.
And I ordered it when the price dropped to 19.25 euros

Ordered! Because you guys care so much when I order things.

looks better than i would have thought, but it needs a price drop

 

[justboy]

I think the maze on the back looks pretty good, but the front art could be for absolutely any other film.
The price would definitely have to drop alot before I would order this.

Extremely boring artwork. Don`t need a steelbook of that.

DE - Prisoners
Super high glossy finish on front. Matte finish with spot gloss on back.

 

[ESM999]

Interesting....the back reminds me Inception

 

[mattyj]

No printed back, think il plug the trigger next week

 

[earthscope]

ric thanks for the pictures.

Nice surprise! I think it looks fantastic....

 

[jonnie123]

As much as this looks well produced with the gloss and spot gloss, and as much as I want a steel of this film, that artwork just isn't doing it for me. Hoping to see something better for this for a UK release.

 

[Sigill]

I think it looks great, the back artwork looks very unusual but works well!
