On disc supplements are detailed in the above linked review. The SteelBook offers some handsome design elements beginning with a mylar O ring that, when combined with the actual image on the front panel, suggests a pin is about to be removed from a grenade. The actual front and rear panels can be seen in the first hi res photograph I've uploaded to this review. There's a prevalence of orange, which, considering the Nazi element, may seem less red than might have been assumed, but which is quite evocative. The inside panels offer a photograph of the main characters. A digital copy is also enclosed.
If you're a Guy Ritchie fan, this film will provide everything you've come to love in a lot of Ritchie's films, from a fairly relentless (if occasionally interrupted) pace, to some luscious visuals, to goofy humor to of course lots of things that go boom if not bump in the night (or day, or in between). Technical merits are first rate, and the included making of featurette very enjoyable. The SteelBook is nicely designed and should be appealing to fans of this packaging format. Recommended.
