I loved the colors on the steelbook and was STUNNED when I realized there was no special features! Then no bluray! It was hard to justify the price, but it looked pretty enough for me to grab. I would so rather read subtitles than watch a dubbed soundtrack. Haven’t watched yet - Thanks for covering my good man!
I used to not mind when I was younger but as I got older I was like subtitles are the way to go lol. The voice actors doing the dub are always just flat with no emotion loll. The price was tough but I wanted to review it and at least it looks great lol
I think the UK version gets extras. I really hope this isn't going to be a standard approach from the studios with bear bone extra expensive 4k limited edition sets.
Me too! This was way too high of a price just for the movie. Hopefully the only reason there is no extras is because of the languages but they could have done subtitles? And they charged like they gave us more.
Deep Discount has it for 29.99 and I believe their free shipping is over $25. Very underrated site for movies. Very good prices and they have alot of Arrow stuff and some other boutique labels.
Uk Zavvi steelbook has: At the heart of Nikita - Making Of Nikita Tour Interview with actress Anne Parillaud Interview with actor Tchéky Karyo Interview with actor Jean-Hugues Anglade Interview with assistant director Christophe Vassort Interview with restoration supervisor André Labbouz"
I’ve never watched this film but definitely not picking it up for the price lol. Sony also did a fine 4K upgrade for The Raid: Redemption Steelbook which is also pretty pricey, but my Digital HD copy was upgraded to 4K for free on Apple TV and it blows away the video and audio of the Blu-ray!
They do have some of the best transfers and this was no diffrent but that price is a tough pill to swallow!That was nice of apple to do that.Wb would of charged you twice lol.
@@LetsTalkEntertainmentMedia your buddy Frank @Frank’s Media recently picked up the Lawrence of Arabia 4K Steelbook and it’s now on Amazon for $33, which I’d gladly pay if I didn’t have it already because it’s well worth it. I went ahead and upgraded my Guns of Navarone Blu-ray to the the same 4k steelbook in a heartbeat😎
I have that Lawrence of Arabia 4K and it’s phenomenal. I’ve wanted to talk about it on here for a while but haven’t had the free video to do it lol. But Summer always makes me think of the film.
@@LetsTalkEntertainmentMedia speaking of which, I would love to be a guest film critic for your channel, John! Movies like Lawrence of Arabia and 2001 can only be fully appreciated in their theatrical presentation on a big screen, so the next best thing is viewing it on the biggest Home Screen possible in its best home media release😎
I might put this movie on my watchlist, but I doubt I purchase it. Oh, by the way-and I’m sorry I’m being THAT GUY-but it’s “too” expensive, not “to” expensive (again-sorry! Just thought you might want to edit that!)
I do need to fix that! Always be that guy because I need to know lol. Yeah I say watch it first and see if you like it and if it’s at a great low price buy it!
@@LetsTalkEntertainmentMedia I bought 4k to get the free shipping total. Comparing it to the bluray this 4k looks more colorful. The English dubbing sucks which I watched 1st and will be watching the other version next. Also, the case cover would have looked better if it looked more like the poster a full body shot. This 4k is worth $20 if it was just a regular case.
My steel book should arrive any day now....looks good though why u have to explain to me the story and plot...spoilers. I am more interested in picture quality Bitrate mbps , Audio sound quality....plus listening to u is full on, pause in between sentences and paragraphs.
I’m sorry you feel that way. Unfortunately this is how my reviews are structured and you are warned about the 4K review so you don’t have to watch the film review. There was a time stamp and there always is so you missed that and it’s a 34 year old movie so there isn’t going to be a warning for that section unless it’s recent. Again there’s a time stamp in the video. I also won’t be doing nitrate stuff because that’s not fair to other viewers. Maybe my style isn’t for you but that former make it wrong it’s just not for you. I appreciate your criticism but it’s not valid.
I also don’t think this movie is going to be a big seller for Sony at all. One of the only releases from Sony I will not be getting. Also the film is in french which will turn off 50% of the people. Not surprised Sony didn’t add extras or anything else to this release. It will drop very quickly in price do to not being able to sell it
You’re right about that. They did add the english dub which a lot of studios won’t do which I guess is to attract english speakers. I still love the visuals but come on with the price of this to start lol

I agree, I had already bought the this 4k and hadn’t played it, I didn’t know of the non extras until THIS review. Guess I have to live with it 😂
Very happy I found you! Great presentation & informative as well! I predict your subscriber number will soar.
Thank you so much. A compliment like that is why I do this. I really appreciate it.

The UK, gets the extras ?! Why aren’t the US?
@genelewisjr It’s just how it goes sometimes. Unfortunately some extras are locked to the distributor in a certain region.
@@LetsTalkEntertainmentMedia thanks man!
Man I FREKEN hate when they give us no material on the film and that sucks and then it's expensive! That really grinds my damn gears
The price should be at the minimum $10 cheaper and that would still be overpriced. This was cheap and lazy.

UK version just postponed until December!! Amazon just sent email, not happy, US version for me.
That’s ridiculous! I wonder why they would do that?
@@LetsTalkEntertainmentMedia maybe found something wrong found in the disc .
That’s more than likely the cause but so late is disappointing.
La femme Nikita had 5 seasons and Nikita had 4. Not a bad run for both
Not bad at all for shows that are spinoffs of a movie!
So it's good but wait for a sale. Thank you John!
No problem! My pleasure buddy!
Uk Zavvi steelbook has: At the heart of Nikita - Making Of
Nikita Tour Interview with actress Anne Parillaud
Interview with actor Tchéky Karyo
Interview with actor Jean-Hugues Anglade
Interview with assistant director Christophe Vassort
Interview with restoration supervisor André Labbouz"
That’s the French import? They did get more extras but i’m not sure if they have subtitles.
I agree the plot is riddled with holes. The biggest problem for me is, no one would ever get a job after killing a cop, ever. Maybe in France though
That’s the only conclusion I can draw is maybe in France but realistically they would want to kill her in the spot not give her a job and a life lol
@@LetsTalkEntertainmentMedia exactly lol
Congrats to the winners!!
Thanks Cat Daddy!

The French edition is a 3-disc set. Probably need to speak French to understand the extras though. U.S. steelbook cover looks better than the import.
Good point! They probably won’t have subtitles. They charged us like it was a three disk set lol
Correction goldeneye is 1995
lol yeah that’s my mistake. Always feels like 96. I was actually talking Bond today.
I sent an email earlier
Thanks again for the giveaway
Yeah sorry I thought I sent that email and now I realize it’s in a draft. Congrats.

Sounds like BLACK FRIDAY sale is the only way to get this.
yeah below $20 is fine for what you get.

@ricogomez4020 I love how the colors looked on it! The power of Sonys transfers.
WTF, no blu-ray version, no digital code, no dolby atmos audio & no extras 🤬 Sony sucks 😖
Yeah they really cheeped out on this one. I can’t figure what went into this decision making.

Because they speak a foreign language😂French and your reading is poor? Comon it action movie really ....not much reading since story is rather simple.
That’s what we said actually lol? Did you read are comments or just assume we were talking about something else?
too many spoilers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess that’s your opinion. It’s a 34 year old movie lol. It’s not like you were told the whole plot and ending.
