I have it pre-ordered, I really enjoyed it. If you ignore the fact that the boy and his mother move to China, so therefore it's not karate but kung fu that he learns, it's a really nice way to spend a couple of hours. Was also good to see Jackie Chan in a karate film where he wasn't the high-kicking action hero, the man proves that he can act.

Just got mine today. Haven't had a chance to look at it yet, but can confirm that the Steelbook is one of those where the back cover synopsis is on a piece of paper that can be removed. There's no info on the actual steel itself, but no BBFC ratings either (for those who hate them). A few details for you as well, taken from the back cover:

Region: ABC
Audio: English, English audio descriptive, and French in 5.1 DTS-HD MA, and Hindi in 5.1 Dolby Digital.
Subtitles: English, English (hard of hearing), Arabic, Dutch, French and Hindi. There's also English, Dutch and French subtitles on the special features, but only English audio for them.

Not bad. By the time I saw one in my local HMV, I already got the standard edition for almost the same price. D'oh! Ah well.

I found a version still kinda factory sealed, somewhat torn at the bottom but still had the security tag on etc so i got it since it was better than the opened one in their own makeshit packaging. Few scracthes accross the plastic but i think everything else is intact.

Already own the regular amaray which i got on offer so i'm keeping this sealed

Steelbook collecting is becoming an unhealthy addiction
