Cinderella 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras
Cinderella's UHD SteelBook is an attractive alternative to the more generic wide release. The front cover features an image of Ella, in her blue
dress, sitting on a swing, looking up to the prince, who is standing behind her left shoulder, looking down at his newly discovered love. A simple, and
not prominent, background of flowers and stone fill the remaining space. The image appears inside a blue border that wraps the entire way around the
front. It's a bit lighter at the top and bottom, giving way to a darker shade at corners and along the left and right edges. The main image is a little
lower than the frame. The film's title, with "Disney"
script above it, is situated at the top, inside the frame and between the ropes holding up Ella's swing. The title proper is embossed. The SteelBook's
rear side features an image of Cinderella's glass slipper. It appears center with an off-image spotlight illuminating it from he top. The blue background
becomes progressively darker away from the shoe. Fine print appears bottom center and bottom right. The spine features the same blue coloring,
lighter in the middle, darker towards the top and bottom. The film's title (with "Disney" text) appear center in a beige color, the same from the front.
An UltraHD logo appears at the top and a Disney logo appears at the bottom. The front and rear sides are smooth and glossy and will attract easily
visible
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 features Cinderella on the bottom right, running down the stairs from the
prince's palace after the ball, knowing that the clock is about to strike midnight. The stairs are the dominant feature. Cinderella's horses appear bottom
left.

Cinderella 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation
2015's Cinderella is a robust and very enjoyable live action re-imagining of the classic Disney animated film, and its newly issued UHD
SteelBook is one of the more attractive on the market. The inner print work is a little bland, but the front and rear exterior panels are gorgeous. Highly
recommended.
