Released alongside the standard 4K edition, a Best Buy-exclusive 4K Steelbook, and even a Wal-Mart-exclusive 4K edition Disney and Target have collaborated on an exclusive 4K variant edition of Steven Spielberg's West Side Story. Like recent Target exclusives, it amounts to nothing more than a deluxe slipcover with a few printed goodies inside... but the film's bold visuals suit this type of artwork-driven variant, and the alternate cover design is great.
For details about the 2160p transfer, please read Jeffrey Kauffman's review of the standard 4K edition.

This two-disc set ships in a standard dual-hubbed keepcase with a deluxe slipcover (detailed below); a Digital Copy redemption slip is also tucked inside. The bonus features are identical to the wide release.
Steven Spielberg's remake West Side Story is a lively, well-made musical that was warmly received by audiences and critics alike upon its theatrical release late last year, and in some circles is preferred to the original 1961 version. It looks great on 4K and the Dolby Atmos audio sounds fantastic too and, while the extras are underwhelming, it's a an impressive package that fans and first-timers will enjoy. Target's exclusive 4K edition adds attractive design elements to their variant fold-out slipcover including a striking character collage and two foil-etched prints; if that sounds like a worthwhile upgrade for the minimal price difference, grab a copy while they're still available.
