Alita: Battle Angel is now on Blu-ray and DVD: Is the bonus content worth it?
By Sandy C.
Alita: Battle Angel is now on Blu-ray and DVD, and with 2 hours of extras, it’s definitely worth your money.
The physical copies of Alita: Battle Angel, which includes 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray, 3D and DVD, arrived earlier this week. The studio was very generous with this release, including many bonus content specials in even the DVD copies.
Is it worth the purchase? Definitely! Below is a quick review of the film and everything included in the discs. Haven’t seen the movie? No worries, there are no spoilers ahead!
Alita: Battle Angel is a movie you have to see in theaters for the best experience. It’s that stunning and bold. However, if you missed it at the movies, owning it on Blu-ray is a great second chance. Usually, it’s not recommended you buy a Blu-ray or DVD of a movie you don’t see in theaters. Physical copies are for fans of the movie who wish to own the film to re-watch and soak in all of the bonus content.

Why? For many, the risk of dropping up to $30 on a Blu-ray/DVD only to not enjoy the movie is too high. Who wants to waste money nowadays? However, this isn’t the case with Alita: Battle Angel.
The movie is brilliant and the Blu-ray picture is as bright and attractive as it was on the big-screen. The audio also matches the quality. If you have surround speakers, you’re in for a treat!

The extras truly feature the creative minds and magic that brought Alita: Battle Angel to life. It makes the viewer (especially fans who watched Alita in theaters) appreciate the film so much more. Despite all the bonus content, though, the extras don’t include a much desired commentary. It was such an amazing and long journey that was taken to make the movie a reality, that a commentary would have been such a treat to have!
