Sony and Best Buy have collaborated on a store exclusive SteelBook release for the Comedy/Sci-Fi sequel 'Men in Black: International.' 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.

The SteelBook has a nice, slightly grippy feel to it. It's neither slick nor glossy and will not readily show fingerprints. On the front is a depiction of the
film's "cutesy" alien character, Pawny. He's standing in front of a three-dimensional checkerboard, which almost looks like something out of the video
game Q-Bert. Various alien chess pieces, red with gold trim, appear behind him along the bottom and middle. The rear panel shows the globe
with the famous MIB crisscrossing three oval symbol behind it. It's brightly lit against a sky that grows progressively darker away from the planet and
symbol. The spine carries over the rear paneling color. The film's title, with "MIB" most prominent, appears close to center. A Columbia Pictures logo
appears
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 film's two main characters -- Agent M and Agent H on the left and
right, respectively -- in a blindingly white room, probably somewhere at MIB headquarters. Each is wearing the trademark MIB suit and is holding an
oversized weapon. Unfortunately, the disc artwork is very boring, nonexistent beyond core format colors and basic, large text.

This is a fun SteelBook. The inner panels are a little generic but the focus on Pawny on the front will assuredly please fans. The globe on the rear symbolizes the film's "international" take on the franchise. The on-disc technical content is quite good. Recommended.
