Overall design is ok...it just needed to be glossy and it would look ok.

 

[Slaughtermom]

Imo the best minimalistic release to date. Ill get this just for the clean look

 

[snooloui]

I think this looks superb, very clean and the embossing just nails it. Best of the 4 I got yesterday (this, 12 Monkeys, Hobbit extended and the massively disappointing Pacific Rim).

I'm joking, to each his own of course

 

[ben6212]

Yeah this isnt as bad as people are making it out...twelve monkeys on the other hand

 

[rbarnes182]

Love the simple design, looks great in my opinion.

 

[Gubizzo]

I away this steelbook from Zavvi.com. It's very particular. unfortunately there isn't the italian language!

 

[Geek Tragedy]

It would save a lot of confusion.......I initially assumed it was the puppet version of 'Mission: Impossible'

Any hardcore fan of this movie wouldn't be confused for a second and knows that imagery instantly. Hardcore fans are who steelbooks should cater to...not to the Mr. Casual Movie Buyer, plus the title is on the J-Card to help the easily confused.

I doubt it. SlyFondle has been very vocal about his dislike for this steelbook.

Edit: Apologies to SlyFondle I was thinking about snooloui.

He was joking.

Glad somebody got it!

Clean ans simple artwork...just perfect in my opinion. Must have for my collection...classic!

Been really lucky with Zavvi steelbooks until this one - damaged so had to send it back. Glad it hadn't sold out!

 

[lgans316]

One of the worst looking Steels.

[Apinamakina]

I think this steelbook looks really neat, I won't get it though because it doesn't have the right subtitles for me.

 

[surfury]

Sorry but this is just churn imo. This eas released ages ago on HD DVD and has same coverart even. Now that Steelbooks are popular, studios jumping on bandwagon yet again.

Having said all that, neat debossing.

 

[Gubizzo]

Very beautiful steelbook! I I'm waiting for the

 

[ihategiantspiders]

That looks stunning, I can't wait to get it delivered. Very underrated movie, love it to pieces and can watch it multiple times even knowing how it ends. For me this is 10 times better than Zodiac. Definitely in my top 3 Fincher movies. Maybe it would've looked better with gloss, but hey beggars can't be choosers.

Hey stick it in a tight poly wrap and it's gloss. Know what you mean though. Those that like matte don't like gloss and vice versa. As you say beggars can't be choosers.

I don't think this steelbook looks too bad. However, the debossing on my copy is misaligned which is too obvious on a cover as minimal as this. I'm going to return it and don't know if I'll re-order this. Perhaps after a price drop
