Universal and Best Buy have collaborated on a store exclusive SteelBook release for Director David Leitch's 2019 spinoff Action film 'Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw.' The disc and digital content is identical to that found in the wide release. See the 'Special Features and Extras' section of the review below for more on the SteelBook's look and feel.

Hobbs & Shaw's SteelBook emphasizes contrast. The front panel is defined by a white background against which are black and gray characters
and visuals. The film's title appears upper center in black while actor names Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham are situated above, pushed to the left
and right, respectively. Below are the title characters, with Johnson's Hobbs on the left, sitting on a motorcycle with palm trees appearing behind.
Opposite is Statham's Shaw, leaning on a high performance sports car. London's Big Ben towers behind him. The rear panel simply carries over the front
panel's left side. On the far right is the front of Hobbs' bike and a couple of other palm trees. A faintly visible shoreline streaks across the middle. A
Universal logo and legalese appear at the bottom. A model number can be seen on the bottom right. The spine maintains the white backdrop with black
lettering. The film's title appears center. A Universal logo may be seen at the bottom. The front and rear panels are smooth and will attract 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 the film's title strewn across both panels against a white background.
Various character and action images appear within the large block letters.

Hobbs & Shaw's SteelBook has the potential to be divisive amongst collectors for its high contrast and very white presentation. It's nice in this reviewer's eyes, something different and something that will stand out on the shelf. The on-disc content is very good as well. Recommended.
