West Side Story 4K Blu-ray Movie Review

Reviewed by Martin Liebman March 29, 2022

Disney and Best Buy have collaborated on a store exclusive SteelBook release for Director Steven Spielberg's 2021 remake film 'West Side Story.' 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.

West Side Story 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras  n/a of 5

Disney's SteelBook is colorful and attractive, simply laid out with parallel imagery on the front and rear. Both panels feature the same image with a city skyline that is reversed on either side but otherwise the same. Large black streaks extend into the sky between the buildings with humanoid figures atop them. The other only real difference is the coloring: red on the front, blue on the back. The spine is black with the film's tile in red lettering center. An UltraHD logo appears at the top and a Fox logo 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 Sharks and the Jets standing off against one another, each grouped packed together, some standing, some kneeling, mimicking a key moment from the film. A silhouette city background set against a red sky fills the rest of the frame.

West Side Story 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation  4.0 of 5

What a handsome SteelBook! It captures the film's essence with a retro, but at the same time modern, look. It's visually appealing in design and color and the film inside is solid and looks and sounds great, too. Highly recommended.
