Customer feedback is strongly positive overall and specifically praises the film and the reported 4K transfer, including its appearance as a 35mm transfer. That praise aligns with the listing’s claim of a 4K scan from the original camera negative, though customer impressions do not independently verify the source or presentation. Value-for-money feedback is mixed, so the extensive extras and physical-edition appeal may matter more to some buyers than price alone.
