Nope 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras
Universal's matte SteelBook takes the minimalist philosophy to heart. The front panel is, simply, a black square, center, with leading green lines
leading to it from all directions, though appearing more prominent bottom-center. While it might look at first glance like something out of The Matrix, it's actually one of the location pieces from the film (to
give
it away would be to spoil part of the fun). The rear panel is equally minimalist. Center against a black background is a fully reflective, mirror-like
motorcycle helmet, with visor, that is reflecting the film's Western setting. Small studio logos and legalese in a brown color appear unobtrusively at
the
bottom. The spine is black with the film's title in simple brown letters, center. Studio logos appear top and 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 a localized map with various road and terrain markings on it,
notated
with pins and a few stand-in props.

Nope 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation
I'm a fan of minimalist design, and this one is great. It borders on pushing the minimalism too far, and some might want more, but it's very clean and
speaks to the film in all three areas (front, rear, inside) without really giving anything away while also doing a lot to define the movie. Good stuff. The
film is solid, too, and the UHD presentation is first class. Highly recommended!
