- Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2025Didn't know this edition was out there until I stumbled upon it. Fantastic transfer of the movie in a really awesome package. This is quickly becoming a top feature in my collection. Incredible price point. Highly recommend this for fans and collectors alike.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2025When you push the button it plays the alien melody. The 4k looks excellent.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2024I paid extra for this awesome display of one of my favorite alien movies of all time. This box lights up and plays a little bit of the movie's main song. Cool 😎
- Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2024I love the packaging, the outer box is very cool and definitely worthy of your collection. The film itself is certainly an improvement over previous formats, it looks great and brings all the nostalgia rushing back. I felt just like I did as a kid watching this with the family on our dad’s beast of a TV. I just love it.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2024I remember in high school this was on TV while getting my first old fashioned. Needless to say I had to re watch it when I was a little more attentive. After 15 years I finally did with this collectors edition.

Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2023Estupenda producción , no tengo por el momento 4k, pero en blu ray se ve perfecto, magnifico sonido, de colección, una novedad por la musica en la caja , volumen bajo pero no importa, me llegó en tiempo, y bien enbalado.

I never realized when the 4K CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND was originally released, that it was a special edition containing actual light and sound: the CLOSE ENCOUNTERS theme notes play. I only wish it was a little louder. With that said, I love this set! Great picture; great theatre-like sound on my 7.2 Dolby Atmos surround sound system. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5.0 out of 5 stars Solo para fanáticos de está película.
Esté es un paquete muy especial, que no es barato, pero si eres fan de está película, te va a encantar tenerlo, no doy detalles porque es como una sorpresa para quién lo adquiere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great bluray special edition pack
Item shipped fast. Sounds and lights still work but sound was a little faint. Probably because battery is almost drained. Bluray discs worked fine. Almost brand new

5.0 out of 5 stars Todo un clásico de Spielberg por fin en formato UHD 4K!
Soy fan de las películas del legendario Director Steven Spielberg y cuando supe que Sony Pictures había restaurado en formato UHD 4K el clásico "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind" la compré de inmediato. Se ve mejor que nunca, con una calidad de imagen fuera de serie, además es una edición especial Gift-Set Limited Edition que se ilumina con apretar un botón y se escucha la música clásica de la película. Si eres fan del cine debes tener está edicion limitada antes de que se agote.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cuesta, pero lo vale
Tengo esta película en VHS que grabé de la TV, en DVD, en Blu-ray Versión del 30 aniversario y aún así no pude resistir esta versión del 40 aniversario que incluye la versión 4K. ¡La presentación es fantástica! Se prende la luz de la nave espacial y se escuchan las ya clásicas notas musicales. Y por si fuera poco, es una excelente película. También trae un librito y un bluray normal de la película, así como otro que contiene las “special features”.
