West Side Story 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras
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
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.
