Captain Marvel 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras 

Captain Marvel's SteelBook takes quite the different approach from its more traditionally designed, character pose-heavy wide release companion, which features the title character appearing from the waist-up in a power position. Here, the character appears full body and in another powerful stance, but on the SteelBook she's dwarfed by very large hangar doors flanking her on either side with a cloudy blue sky behind her. Goose the cat appears bottom right, its front paws on what appears to be a flight helmet. The character's star logo, which appears across her chest while in full costume, appears on the doors, cut down the middle, half on either side. The rear side features a close-up of that logo as it appears on her costume, with the red and blue costume accents around it. Fairly large Marvel Studios, copyright notice, and model number text appear at the bottom. The spine is a red color which is brightest at the top and grows increasingly darker as it moves to the bottom. The film's title appears center in a beige color. Marvel Studios text appears above it, and also at the top of the spine. At the bottom is an UltraHD logo. The front and rear panels are not excessively glossy but will attract fingerprints.

Inside, the digital copy code is tucked underneath the left-hand-side tabs. The two discs, one UHD and one Blu-ray, are situated on the right in staggered-stacked formation. The inner print is a two-panel spread that depicts Captain Marvel, as Carol Danvers, on the right, underneath the disc, in her flight suit. She has her flight helmet tucked to her side and cradled in her left arm. She's looking off to the right. Her plane's cockpit appears mostly on the left. Two other jet fighters are screaming by through a dusky, pastel sky. The image appears hand-drawn and is not a still photo.

Captain Marvel 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation 

Captain Marvel may not appear at the peak of Mount Marvel, but it's a well made and perfectly fun Superhero film that has earned a nice looking SteelBook release. It's focused on the character's history in military aviation on the front and interior while the rear side highlights the character's easily identifiable logo. The on-disc content is very good. Highly recommended.
