The Goonies 4K Blu-ray Movie Review

Reviewed by Martin Liebman September 15, 2020

Warner Brothers and Best Buy have collaborated on a store exclusive UHD SteelBook release for the popular 1985 film 'The Goonies.' 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 Goonies 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras  4.0 of 5

The Goonies UHD SteelBook is smooth but not exceedingly glossy; extreme fingerprinting display will not be a problem. Black and white and a little gray and bronze are the only tones to be found. Prominently on the front is a skull with crossed swords underneath. "Never Day Die" text wraps around below the swords, sort of in the shape of a smile. The film's title appears in the familiar script top center along with Steven Spielberg and Richard Donner names. The rear panel depicts the doubloon from the film center but a bit above the X-axis. The background black coloring shows some wear behind it, too, appearing a bit more bronze and gray. A white billing block consumes the bottom third. The spine is black with the film's title, as it appears on the front, a bit above center. A Warner Brothers logo at the bottom adds the only real color to any part of the SteelBook's exterior.

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 still depicting the film's four main characters, from left to right: Mouth, Mikey, Data, and Chunk. Mouth is holding a treasure map and Data is pointing towards the distance. The background consists of a washed out sky.

The Goonies 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation  3.5 of 5

The Goonies is one of those quintessential 80s movies that has finally earned a very well rounded UHD and SteelBook release. The film looks and sounds good on the 4K format and the SteelBook is simple but a treat. Highly recommended.
