Black Panther 4K Blu-ray Movie Review

Reviewed by Jeffrey Kauffman April 6, 2024

Wal-mart has been upping its SteelBook ante lately with a number of releases from Lionsgate in particular, but now a new slate of so-called Mondo X releases in partnership with Disney / Buena Vista and Marvel. I've included several photos of the very handsome packaging here for those who are interested to pore over.


Black Panther has had a number of previous releases in both 1080 and 4K UHD, including some prior releases offering limited SteelBook packaging. For those wanting a plot recap and technical assessments of the 4K UHD release, Martin Liebman's Black Panther 4K Blu-ray review should suffice quite handily, and Marty also contributed both this review and this review of separate Best Buy SteelBook releases of the film that may be of some interest to fans.

Black Panther 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras  4.0 of 5

On disc supplements are detailed in the above linked review. The SteelBook packaging here offers a rather luxe look given its kind of quasi-Deco filagree elements as well as its prevalence of darker black and brown tones with a deep gold overlay, all of which gives this a decidedly different appearance from either of the previously released Best Buy SteelBooks from several years ago. The entire look, which offers several portraits of the title hero, is kind of interestingly retro in quality, but quite evocative. The Mylar O ring (you can see a photo of it separately in the sixth photo, as well as it over the SteelBook itself in the fourth and fifth photos) offers a bit more of the Deco stylizations. If there is one niggling complaint some may have, it's one I've seen repeated in a number of other recent Wal-mart exclusive SteelBooks, namely kind of frankly nondescript inner panels (see the seventh photo). A digital copy is also included.


Black Panther 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation  4.0 of 5

True diehard collectors are almost always "completists", and those types of fans may want to pick this release up even if they got one or possibly both of the previously released SteelBooks from Best Buy. That said, I personally find this SteelBook to be far and away the most attractively designed of the three available, with a cool retro-Deco look that is very evocative. Recommended.
