Avengers: Age of Ultron 4K Blu-ray Movie Review

Reviewed by Martin Liebman August 19, 2018

Disney, in conjunction with Best Buy, has released an exclusive SteelBook packaging variant for the highly anticipated 4K UHD release of 'Avengers: Age of Ultron.' The two-disc set includes the same content as the wide release: the 4K/HDR/Dolby Atmos UHD disc, the previously released Blu-ray, and a Movies Anywhere digital copy code. See the Special Features and Extras section below for more on the SteelBook presentation.

Avengers: Age of Ultron's SteelBook is a little out of left field. Rather than a more artistically inclined pursuit for the front cover, something that doesn't look like any old off-the-shelf character collage, Best Buy's SteelBook delivers...a character collage. The background is predominantly red with a large Avengers "A" centered and the film's title (and Marvel Studios markings) appearing towards the bottom of the symbol. There's some good embossing/debossing work in play as well; the "A" logo is sunken a bit below the rest of the front while the film's title is raised, not necessarily raised above the perimeter but raised above the debossed logo back to sea level, so to speak. The characters encircle the logo, as much a they can encircle it on a rectangular platform. Clockwise from top-center is Nick Fury, Tony Stark, Captain America, Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch, Ultron, Quicksilver, Black Widow, Hulk, and Thor. The rear cover carries over the predominantly red color scheme and presents an impactful, nearly full-frame profile image of Ultron. The spine is simple, with more wrap of the red color scheme and the film's logo in relatively small, centered print. A nearly microscopic 4K logo can be seen at the bottom and a Marvel Studio's logo appears in fine print at the top.

Inside, buyers will find the digital copy voucher tucked under the left hand side tabs. The Blu-ray and UHD discs are staggered-stacked on the right hand side. The inner print depicts Iron Man zooming towards a battle with Hulk and his "Hulk Buster" suit components hurtling alongside him to the clash of titans. It's a fairly simple SteelBook, not the most attractive on the market and definitely not as nice as the previous Best Buy exclusive Blu-ray SteelBook which released earlier this year with unique artwork courtesy of Matt Ferguson.

Avengers: Age of Ultron 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation  3.5 of 5

Age of Ultron is far from this reviewer's favorite movie in the MCU but it's a good inward-focused character film that does deliver more than enough action and top-flight special effects. The Best Buy exclusive SteelBook delivers a decent presentation. It's not a standout by any means, and the character collage presentation doesn't really distinguish it from basic release type of artwork, but fans of the popular packaging option should find no major negatives when deciding whether to add it to the collection.
