Time to kick some vampire butt.

Reviewed by Neil Lumbard December 18, 2020

One of the most badass action-horror films of the 90's, Blade is a non-stop thrill ride that never lets up for a second. Featuring a slick performance from the riveting Wesley Snipes, Blade is a must-see genre film that checks off all the necessary boxes. Arriving on 4K UHD for the first time, the Best Buy exclusive steelbook edition is a truly fantastic collectors edition that any fan of the film would be proud to display on their shelf. Check it out.

A steelbook masterpiece.

The steelbook edition is a beautiful collectors release that features an iconic image of action-hero Blade emblazoned on the front art. The back of the steelbook features another stunning action pose featuring Blade again. The inside art work showcases a still from one of the best action scenes in the entire film: Blade versus Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff). This is a high-gloss steelbook and the print quality is downright fantastic: deserving of being labeled as a premium edition. The high quality was easily apparent and can be both seen and felt (in hand). This is a show- stopping collectible that fans will be thrilled to have.


Blade 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation  4.5 of 5

Blade is one of the most entertaining films of the 90's. The action-horror hybrid is a thrill ride. The filmmaking is top-notch and stat Wesley Snipes is a badass from beginning to end. The 4K UHD is exceptional and features a reference quality native presentation. The Best Buy exclusive steelbook is similarly impressive: featuring high-gloss, the release looks and feels like a premium edition. Fans will be downright thrilled to have this edition. Highly recommended.
