Doctor Strange 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras 

Doctor Strange's SteelBook is smooth but not overly glossy or particularly fingerprint-prone, though in the right light handlers will certainly see some. It strikes a nice balance in that regard, as it does for its front cover image. Strange appears center, stepping out of a portal, a busy world behind him of varying angles and elements that jive with some of the movie's more fantastical moments. Wear points around the edges are visible and the image sits inside a decorative, movie themed border that lines the extreme periphery. There is no text on the front cover. The rear panel is a dark, almost black, color with splotchy points of wear throughout. In the center is a depiction of the Eye of Agamotto, one of the key props in the movie and within the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe. The spine carries over the rear's dark color. The film's title appears in small print center. A tiny Marvel Studios logo appears at the top and an UltraHD logo may be seen at the bottom.

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 The Ancient One, hooded and looking down on the right panel, her right arm extended squarely onto the left, conjuring a spell.

Doctor Strange 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation 

This is a very nice SteelBook; Disney has struck a good balance for the presentation's look and feel. The rear panel is a bit uninspired, as is the running trend for Disney SteelBooks, but the inner print is well done. The UHD content is good, particularly the video presentation. Recommended.
