The most successful superhero film of all time, and gets a super-sized sequel with surprising amounts of soul. Marvel Studios presents ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron,’ a pop-culture sugar rush epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero film of all time. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth's Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.The Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ stars Robert Downey Jr., who returns as Iron Man, along with Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Mark Ruffalo as Hulk and Chris Evans as Captain America. Together with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and with the additional support of Don Cheadle as James Rhodes/War Machine, Cobie Smulders as Agent Maria Hill, Stellan Skarsgård as Erik Selvig and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, the team must reassemble to defeat James Spader as Ultron, a terrifying technological villain hell-bent on human extinction. Along the way, they confront two mysterious and powerful newcomers, Pietro Maximoff, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Wanda Maximoff, played by Elizabeth Olsen and meet an old friend in a new form when Paul Bettany becomes The Vision.There is an abundance of good jokes in the Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron,’ but the best of them is in the dynamic opening action sequence. Iron Man [Robert Downey Jr.], Captain America [Chris Evans], Thor [Chris Hemsworth], the Hulk [Mark Ruffalo] and the rest are hurtling through a forest on their way to the hilltop stronghold of an evil secret society, Hydra. Taking turns to showcase each of their signature abilities, they lay waste to hordes of uniformed baddies, but Hydra’s monocled commander, Baron Strucker [Thomas Kretschmann], rallies his troops with a cry of, “Never surrender!” A second later, he turns to his right-hand man and mutters, “I’m going to surrender.”Who can blame him? Billed in the original 1960s Marvel comics as “Earth’s Mightiest Heroes,” the Avengers team seem even mightier now onscreen. One of the team is a Norse god; another has more weaponry in his armoured gloves than the average army; another is, well, the Hulk. And even their supposedly human colleagues aren’t exactly lightweights. In one dazzling set piece, Black Widow [Scarlett Johansson] races her motorbike the wrong way down a major road, scoops Captain America’s shield off the asphalt, skids underneath a lorry, and throws the shield into Captain America’s waiting hand at the very moment he needs it to bash an opponent on the head. Maybe it’s not surprising then that the Avengers spend so much time fighting among themselves. Who else would stand a chance against them?The two sequences mentioned above sum up what makes the Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ so impressive, but also so uninvolving. The film’s writer-director, Joss Whedon, isn’t interested in showing his characters solving puzzles or overcoming obstacles; he simply wants to show them beating up wrongdoers and cracking jokes in the coolest imaginable way. Distributing snappy one-liners and elaborate stunts to every member of the team, as well as their various sidekicks and assistants, he has them saving the day with all of the frictionless ease that comic-book logic and computer-generated imagery allow.If they need to hop from the USA to Africa, they do it in an instant. If they need an indestructible cage to rocket down from space and land on the earth with pinpoint accuracy, it happens without a glitch. And if they need to destroy a city-centre skyscraper without harming any civilians, not only can they do it, they can improvise a string of wisecracks in the process. Especially as The Avengers are fighting for their lives, and have to put on a gymnastics display to thwart the enemy. I really admired the polished, expertly choreographed entertainment, that gave me an adrenaline buzz, especially of seeing a vulnerable protagonist labouring against the odds.And, in general, the Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ has almost the similar plot as 2012’s film, but this time they have to battle with a psychopathic arch-villain that threatens them; and there is a city-levelling clash with a swarm of faceless, CGI foot-soldiers. To be specific, what happens is that Tony Stark (Iron Man) uses some alien technology to create an artificially intelligent computer program called Ultron (voiced by James Spader) in the Avengers’ Manhattan HQ. Unfortunately, Ultron doesn’t have a very high opinion of his creator’s species, and so, once he has knocked together a metallic body in which to house his virtual brain, he decides to wipe humanity off the face of the planet, aided by two super-powered Eastern European twins with a grudge against Stark: the speedy Quicksilver [Aaron Taylor-Johnson] and the mind-altering Scarlet Witch [Elizabeth Olsen]. And then the Avengers have a big punch-up with Ultron and his robot-lackeys.But where are the dangers that might make our heroes break a sweat? We are told that Ultron is getting up to all sorts of mischief around the globe, but the film rarely shows him doing anything except skulking in the shadows, so he comes across as a grumpy Transformers toy rather than an urgent threat. He’s certainly not enough of a threat to stop the Avengers hanging out with Hawkeye [Jeremy Renner] in his farmhouse at the film’s halfway point. Thanks to Joss Whedon’s gift for likeable characters and screwball banter, this bucolic interlude is quite enjoyable. But how can we worry about humanity’s imminent extinction when its greatest champions are relaxing in the countryside, chopping firewood and tinkering with tractors? Mind you, it’s while they’re on their rural mini-break that the Avengers’ omnipotence faces its only significant challenge. In one touching scene, the love-struck Black Widow talks to the Hulk’s alter ego, Bruce Banner, about whether they could have a future together. Here, for once, is a question that might be tricky. It might not be resolved by some sparkling witticisms or by the swing of a magical hammer.Written and directed by Joss Whedon and produced by Kevin Feige, Marvel's ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ is based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book series "The Avengers," first published in 1963. Louis D'Esposito, Alan Fine, Victoria Alonso, Jeremy Latcham, Patricia Whitcher, Stan Lee and Jon Favreau serve as executive producers. Get set for an action-packed thrill ride when The Avengers return in Marvel's ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron.’ Working for the first time with British Cinematography Ben Davis of ‘Guardians of the Galaxy,’ Joss Whedon thinks the film out in more cinematic terms than the prior instalment, with some complex tracking shots that last for upwards of a whole minute. Duelling composers Brian Tyler and Danny Elfman have provided a surfeit of speaker-rattling action music, though the most memorable passages remain those recycled bits of Alan Silvestri’s brassy “Avengers” fanfare.The final battle is suitably epic and intense, showcasing the spectacular abilities of our heroes, with equally impressive special effects. Moreover, it's given a high degree of emotional resonance, not just because we know and love these characters, but also because of the impending sense that not all of them might survive. The stakes are real for these characters, as one might feel when watching Serenity or one of Joss Whedon's shows. Without going into specifics, there are some wonderful fanboy moments and indeed, story elements, throughout the film. In addition to many jaw-droppingly audacious action all thrown in casually as if they're no big deal, the film is also frequently hilarious. Captain America gets a generous helping of witty lines, showing that he's becoming more self-assured, and, despite the angst going on around him, generally happier. The dynamic between Hulk and Black Widow is explored much further than in the first film, and is actually quite sweet, despite the angst. The Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ is a terrific comic book turned into a film, featuring spectacular action sequences. It's also surprisingly funny considering the dramatic weight and emotional resonance involved. A film which not only really tests its heroes to the limit and even deconstructing them in many ways, but it also celebrates them to great effect and gives you a totally wonderful rollercoaster ride of epic proportions.Blu-ray Video Quality – This All Regions UK Blu-ray release of the Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ provides both a stunning 1080p encoded 3D and 2D image on both Blu-ray discs, especially in the film’s original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.40:1 widescreen, both of which look striking and demo-worthy. There’s even a fair amount of depth to view throughout the film, especially when you view the 3D counterpart, because you can see more overtly framed 3D-designed shots truly spring to life. The ensemble slow-motion opening sequence shot stands out dramatically, but so too do many of the latter Ultron army scenes, whilst characters are well rounded and given some strong integration into the backdrops. There’s plenty of stunning CGI images on offer here, with several standout flourishes moments designed to show off the benefits of the 3D format over its 2D sibling. Ultimately, it is very impressive with lots of visual offering as does the 2D counterpart, but that’s probably more to do with the standout excellence of the latter than because of any real issues with the former, but overall I much preferred watching the 3D Blu-ray disc for my ultimate enjoyment and pleasure.Blu-ray Audio Quality – The Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio has some very stunning punchy and effects-dominated, so making the tracks very precise and well-nuanced, promoting dialogue up-front and centre throughout the piece, clearly and coherently rising above the rest, whilst the score engages with an excellent backing theme that further enhances both the tone and the impact of the film’s key set-pieces. Effects are striking not only in the heavy action department, but especially with all of The Avengers standing out alongside the epic finale, but also in their individual makeup, especially with Iron Man’s high-pitched charge-up blasts, Thor’s terrific thumping hammer blows, Captain America’s boomerang shield throwing sessions, Hawkeye’s myriad arrow options and Black Widow’s high-tech kit all given their own voice, whilst The Hulk delivers the most welcoming thumps as he bashes and crashes his way around fighting off Ultron and all his robots. Utterly demo-worthy throughout, and resoundingly reference from start to finish, the Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ offers premium performance on the audio aural front.Blu-ray Special Features and Extras:Audio Commentary: Commentary with Director Joss Wheldon: Here Joss Whedon introduces himself and says, “”doing an unprecedented concept of a directors audio commentary and I have a lot to say, and have no idea what order it is going to happen in, and if you like the sound of me babbling on, you are in for a treat.” He tells us why he would ever contemplate making another Avengers film, but despite this, he is glad he did it, as it is his own entire project. Joss also informs us that there was another director who helped on the picture, which was the Second Unit, and Joss also informs us that he shot about 100 days of footage and the other director shot about 50 days of footage. Joss also praises the world of George Lucas’s ILM Team and the fantastic work they did on The Hulk, in making him look lifelike and real, which started its journey from the previous Avengers film. Joss also tells us that he loves the character of Tony Stark and feels in this particular film Tony Stark has redeemed himself and his character and also thinks now he is actually a hero. Joss also praises the Tony Stark building, especially the interior and the amazing spaces that has been created and it total amazing grandiose look. At the Tony Star party, Joss says he loved the old World War II Veteran’s especially the main actor who speaks, but despite who knew that old actor, he could not remember his name, sadly. When ULTRON first appears, near the end of the party, Joss acknowledges that he is a fan of the Frankenstein films and felt ULTRON looked like Frankenstein, but with all the wires hanging down, felt looked like the Mummy. One bit of fascinating information Joss reveals, that no one has commented on, is the bit where the actress Maria is taking broken glass out of her bare foot, that she is wearing the bomber jacket of Steve Rogers / Captain America. Joss really liked the actor Andy Serkis [Ulysses Klaue] and talks about the scene where ULTRON cuts off part of his arm, but of course not for real and was worried if it would upset Andy Sirkiss, but in fact Andy loved it and felt it was homage to Star Wars. When eventually get to the “safe House” that is owned by the character Clint Barton / Hawkeye, well it was actually filmed on the Duke of Wellington land in England, to make it look like The Simpsons area of Springfield in America, but the actual house was built specifically for only one days filming, and of course it was eventually demolished, but the only thing that was left were some very angry bitter cows. At around the 1:57:00 mark, Joss tells us he loved the part where all the Avengers are together fighting off the ULTRON’s robots and eventually the demise of ULTRON. So we come to the end of this special audio commentary from joss Whedon, and while the credits are rolling up the screen, Joss Whedon informs us he is not going to do the third Avengers film, as this one totally exhausted him, but also at the same time informs us that he was totally proud of what he has produced. Anyway, I must say it was quite a fascinating audio commentary, especially hearing all of Joss Whedon’s anecdotes on the film and also all the interesting facts that went into making the film, boy does he waffle on, which he warned us at the start of this audio commentary, but despite this, it was still interesting in hearing Joss Whedon commentary. But one thing I really had to do, is really crank up the sound, as he is a very softly spoken person.Special Feature: From the Insight Out – Making of Avengers: Age of Ultron [2015] [1080p] [1.77:1] [20:54] This making of Avengers feature is rather short but looks at the work behind the big action sequences and the CGI special effects in the film. It is a good extra for once you have watched the film. But despite it being just short of 21 minutes, a lot is packed in and you get some great contributions from the likes of Joss Whedon [Director]; Jeremy Latcham [Executive Producer]; Aaron Taylor-Johnson [Quicksilver]; Elizabeth Olsen [Scarlet Witch]; Mark Ruffalo [Bruce Banner / Hulk]; Chris Hemsworth [Thor]; Jeremy Renner [Clint Barton / Hawkeye]; Cobie Smulders [Maria Hill]; Robert Downey Jr. [Tony Stark / Iron Man]; Charles Wood [Production Designer]; Kevin Feige, p.a.g. [Producer]; Chris Evans [Steve Rogers / Captain America]; James Spader [Ultron]; Andy Serkis [Ulysses Klaue]; Scarlett Johansson [Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow]; Victoria Alonso [Executive Producer]; Christopher Townsend [Visual Effects Supervisor]; Linda Cardellini [Laura Barton]; Samuel L. Jackson [Nick Fury]; Claudia Kim [Dr. Helen Cho]; Bobby Holland Hatton [Steve Rogers / Captain America Stunt Double] and Paul Bettany [Jarvis / The Vision]. But what is also insightful with this brilliant special feature is that at the start you get to witness The El Capitan Cinema, where they held the World Premiere of the Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ film where you get to see all the everyone involved with the film, especially the stars who sign autographs to the wild and over the top fans. But you also get a short glimpse inside the cinema, where mainly the stars are lines up in front of the giant cinema screen with the ATMOS logo above them. Then next we suddenly get a heading appear saying 18 MONTHS EARLIER and this is where we get a lot of behind-the-scenes of went into the making of the film and it is really interesting and informative special feature.Special Feature: The Infinite Six [2015] [1080p] [1.77:1] [7:26] The Infinite Six for me is the jewel in this release. It looks at what the Six ‘Infinity Stones’ are and a detailed look at the 4 already used in the MARVEL STUDIOS films, which were “The Space Stone;” 2The Reality Stone;” “The Power Stone;” “The Mind Stone,” and also a glimpse at the remaining two and how the search for them in the future Phase 3 MARVEL STUDIOS films will take the audience ever closer to the big ‘Infinity Wars’ saga with Thanos. Contributors to this interesting special are Jeremy Latcham [Executive Producer]; Joss Whedon [Writer/Director]; Kevin Feige, p.a.g. [President of Marvel Studios]; Chris Hemsworth [Thor]; Chris Pratt [Peter Quill / Star-Lord]; James Gunn [Director of Guardians of the Galaxy] and Jonathan Schwartz [Co=producer of Guardians of the Galaxy].Special Feature: Global Adventure [2015] [1080p] [1.77:1] [3:00] Global Adventure looks at the different locations filming that took place, which were Italy; South Korea; United Kingdom and South Africa, and the reasons why they were selected and what it was like to film there, especially with Joss Whedon and cast members talking of how the Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ shows the Global impact of the Avenger’s action. Sadly this is the shortest feature in all of these extras on the 2nd Blu-ray disc. But as a bonus we get a wealth of contributors with this fascinating special and they were Joss Whedon [Director]; Kevin Feige, p.a.g. [Producer]; Scarlett Johansson [Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow]; Mark Ruffalo [Bruce Banner / Hulk]; Jeremy Latchman [Executive Producer]; Chris Evans [Steve Rogers / Captain America] and Chris Hemsworth [Thor]. But once again we go behind-the-scenes of the filming the Marvel ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron,’ but we get detail views of those specific locations mentioned above.Special Feature: Deleted & Extended Scenes [2015] [1080p] [2.40:1] [12:40] With each item shown, you can either listen to the Audio Commentary with Joss Whedon or without. The deleted/extended scenes again come with only 4 scenes selected; The Man in the Church, Watch Your Six, Bruce and Natasha Talk and Norn Cave.Special Feature: Gag Reel [2015] [1080p] [1.77:1] [3:36] It always amuses me why they include these “Gag Reel” extras, as most of it is totally silly and pointless, and only the people appearing in the film are the only ones who enjoy participating in this vacuous rubbish.Sneak Preview: ANT-MAN [2015] [1080p] [1.77:1] [1:31]Finally, it is hard to judge the Marvel ‘Age of Ultron,’ apart from all the other franchise films that has come before, especially as a standalone film and that it is a thoroughly engaging, better-thought-out-than-normal action extravaganza on an unprecedented scale, and with an impressive ensemble superhero cast. For those who have watched all the other Marvel instalments before it, and in preparation for it, this is yet another milestone event. The UK All Regions Blu-ray debut of this Avengers sequel comes in just two awesome flavours, 3D and 2D, that is equally very impressive, but still preferred the 3D version, which sits well alongside their initial release of the first film from MARVEL STUDIOS. With superb technical features, and a decent enough selection of extras, fans should be chomping at the bit to get their hands on this. Highly Recommended!Andrew C.

Since anyone reading this has probably seen the film already, let's talk about the dvd first:It has the following language and subtitle options:Languages: English.Subtitles; English, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish.It's also English audio captioned.The disc begins with a trailer for the film 'Ant-Man', but you can skip that via the next button on the dvd remote.Said trailer can be found in the sneak peeks section of the disc anyhow.The dvd has one solitary extra: 'Global Adventure.' A two minute long look at the location filming around the world for the film. The brief snippets of other places and the film being shot there are quite interesting, but this is far too short a featurette to have enough of that.In case you haven't seen the film:Another movie based on marvel comics characters. Sequel to 'Avengers Assemble.' And one that also picks up plot points from various scenes before during and after the credits in other marvel movies.So it's not really a good jumping on point if you're not familiar with the studio's output. But anyone watching it or reading this doubtless will be. So that shouldn't be a problem.The Avengers start the movie dealing with the evil organisation HYDRA. But then their downtime is spoiled by new threats. Two humans who are out for revenge. And Ultron [voiced by James Spader] an artificial intelligence who wishes to improve the planet by destroying the human race.Only the Avengers can save the day..It does everything you would expect of it. Big action scenes. Strong character moments. Humour. Another great bring the house down moment that's totally different to the one in the first film, but no less good. New characters. Familiar faces. Continuity. References to delight comic book fans. And yet another set piece final battle with people fighting whilst things explode and things fly around shooting at each other.You will also find out why Black Widow seems to have better chemistry with all the men other than Hawkeye. The film does try to give the latter more attention also.It also sets up things for upcoming Marvel movies.Whilst still a great watch, there's just two minor flaws: Ultron is a very good villain. But never quite manages to be a great one.And it doesn't have the shock of the new and the originality of the first film. Ant-Man does, which is why that is the most enjoyable Marvel movie of the year. But this is still a very good blockbuster with lots to please. And like you're not going to watch it?

Es la edición estándar de las películas de Marvel pero con una portada de cartón. Trae algunos extras y la peli está genial.De coleccionista tiene poco pero el precio es el mismo que una edición normal así que ninguna queja.

"Avengers : L'ère d'Ultron", sorti en 2015 et réalisé par Joss Whedon (Le réalisateur de "Avengers", "Beaucoup de bruit pour rien" et la série TV "Buffy contre les vampires" entre autres...), est un excellent film de super héros dynamique et très spectaculaire, issu de l'univers Marvel Comics, qui a rencontré un franc succès lors de sa sortie au cinéma ainsi qu'une digne suite à son prédécesseur sorti trois ans auparavant. Après le phénoménal succès du premier volet, on attendait tous avec impatience ce nouvel épisode qui est certes bourré d'action, d'humour et d'effets spéciaux comme on les aiment mais au final, ce deuxième opus n'égalera pas son grand frère, la faute à l'effet de surprise qui a disparu mais aussi à un scénario un peu brouillon. Dans ce film, Tony Stark a créé, sans le vouloir, le plus redoutable des adversaires pour les Avengers : Le terrible Ultron. Celui-ci juge les humains responsables des nombreuses catastrophes sur notre planète et décide donc de détruire la race humaine. En plus d'Ultron, les Avengers devront affronter deux jumeaux puissants, Wanda et Pietro Maximoff qui veulent se venger de Stark pour les armes que sa société a créé et qui ont décimé leur famille. Une course contre la mort commence alors pour nos héros afin de sauver notre monde. L'histoire, bien qu'un peu brouillonne donc, demeure toutefois très intéressante à suivre et ne manque pas de suspense ni d'humour et d'émotion. Le film possède des décors et costumes superbes ainsi qu'un rythme soutenu, on ne s'ennuie jamais ! Les scènes d'action sont nerveuses et efficaces et les effets spéciaux sont très spectaculaires. Le casting est parfait, on retrouve avec plaisir tous nos héros du premier opus campés par les charismatiques Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Don Cheadle, Anthony Mackie et Samuel L.Jackson. Parmi les nouveaux venus, on pourra noter la présence de James Spader, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen et d'Aaron Taylor-Johnson. Bref, "Avengers : L'ère d'Ultron" est un superbe film d'action très réussi et prenant malgré ses quelques menus défauts. Un divertissement spectaculaire et haletant qui ne vous laissera pas le temps de souffler ! A voir absolument !Le blu-ray offre une superbe qualité d'image, digne du support HD. Les couleurs sont belles et l'image est très propre et nette. Rien à dire, c'est bien meilleur que le DVD. Au niveau du son, la VF est proposée en 5.1 DTS-HD HR. Un son de très bonne qualité même si la VO, proposée en 7.1 DTS-HD MA, est un peu meilleure.En bref, si vous avez aimé le premier "Avengers" ainsi que tous les films des super héros Marvel, alors "Avengers : L'ère d'Ultron" devrait également vous plaire. Certes ce deuxième volet de la saga est légèrement moins réussi que son grand frère mais il n'en reste pas moins un excellent film d'action impressionnant et qui vous en mettra plein la vue ! Il contient tout ce qu'il faut pour passer un agréable moment devant la télévision : Une histoire intéressante à suivre et riche en suspense, des décors et costumes superbes, un rythme soutenu, des scènes d'action nerveuses et bien menées, des effets spéciaux spectaculaires, un casting impeccable, de l'humour et de l'émotion. Un excellent divertissement qui comblera les amateurs du genre. Le blu-ray est exempt de tout reproche. Un achat sûr.

L'ho prenotato un paio di mesi fa per assicurarmi la certezza dell'arrivo ed il miglior prezzo e finalmente è arrivato.Lasciamo stare il film visto che di recensioni ce ne sono abbastanza e non sarà questa a far pendere l'ago della bilancia da un parte o dall'altra.Veniamo invece a descrivere l'aspetto tecnico ed il confezionamento.Il comparto video è perfetto, d'altro canto parliamo di un film uscito pochi mesi fa e registrato in digitale.Nessun difetto visibile quindi e le immagini hanno sempre una colorimetria di altissimo livello e una fluidità adeguata e realistica.Contrariamente al primo Avengers però la scelta del formato video ricade su un 16/9 con rapporto a 2.35:1 e non a 1:85:1; il risultato è la presenza delle fastidiose bande nere in testa ed in coda alla TV.Il comparto audio invece è sicuramente deludente. La traccia italiana è presentata in un DTS 5.1 molto povero, contrariamente a quelle inglesi e francesi, sempre in HD.La traccia risulta scadente, se vogliamo anche improponibile per un film di questa portata, dove l'azione, le musiche, gli effetti audio improvvisi ed i dialoghi si fondono in diverse scene e la produzione di una traccia audio pulita è una necessità, non un capriccio.I dialoghi appaiono spesso ovattati e la traccia base è veramente troppo bassa.Bisogna alzare il volume in maniera esponenziale se si vuole sentirlo decentemente, con il risultato che il vicino di casa vi busserà dopo dieci minuti per capire se siete sordi.E dire che il primo Avengers aveva una traccia in HD sicuramente migliore di questa; chi non avrebbe dato per scontato che anche questa traccia sarebbe stata almeno dello stesso livello?Venendo invece al confezionamento, la Versione in SteelBook è sicuramente da collezionisti; un artwork puro fronte,retro e all'interno, senza scritte inutili che sporcano la cover. Ad essere pignoli la lucidatura esterna è forse inferiore alle attese, ma credo che sia volutamente più grezza rispetto al primo Avengers, e l risultato è comunque ottimo.Sperando di esservi stato utile auguro a tutti una splendida visione.

Magnifique steelbook et très bon film

Es una edición "especial" que solo incluye la cobertura de cartón, pero que le da un toque más bonito para exponer. Quitando eso es la película sin más extras que los del disco.
