Galaxy Quest 4K Blu-ray Movie Review
Reviewed by Martin Liebman January 17, 2025
Paramount has widely released a UHD SteelBook packaging variant for the fantastic 1999 film 'Galaxy Quest.' The disc and digital content is
identical to that found in the UHD wide release. See the 'Special Features
and Extras' section of the review below for
more on the SteelBook's look and feel.

Galaxy Quest 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras
Paramount brings Galaxy Quest to SteelBook packing for its UHD debut. Beyond the SteelBook, an embossed slipcover with identical front
panel
artwork is included (the rear is different depicting the Protector in flight). The SteelBook is glossy and on the front prominently features an old
CRT TV with Taggart, Madison, and Dr, Lazarus inside of it. The Protector bursts out of the screen and is shown flying at the top of the
SteelBook, right
below the film's title, which is in a dark purple lettering. Outer space elements appear in the background. On the back is a rendering of most of the key
characters from the film, all of them in various poses and presentations. The NSEA logo appears behind them. The spine is very simple. It's black with
the film's title in small purple letters, center (identical to the style on the front). A Paramount logo has been placed at the top.
Inside the digital copy code is tucked under the left-hand side tabs. The single UHD disc is placed on a hub, center right. The inner print is a two panel
spread depicting four of the aliens from the film, all sort of looking down at the camera. The two on the left are showing teeth; the ones on the right are
not.

Galaxy Quest 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation
I think fans will enjoy this SteelBook. It's not the most inspired ever, but it captures the essence of the film nicely enough. The movie is great and the
UHD is well rounded. Highly recommended!
