Sorry but the UK's cover art is light years better than the German cover art. A Steelbook without the films title logo is just a waste and an incomplete cover art for its own good. Despite the fact the UK's cover is horizontal I still prefer the texture and colors their using.

And P.S Why does the title heading have "Rio Heist" in the title? It's just plain old Fast & Furious 5.

It was probably advertised as Rio Heist when in theaters but from what's printed on the cover art it just reads plain "Fast & Furious 5"

I hope they changed the title card on the film to Fast and Furious 5, because it pissed me off when they kept the title card Fast Five, laziness at it's highest.

They should have called it Fast Five and been done with it, instead of thinking "Hmmmmmm, people outside of the US won't know it's the 5th Fast & Furious movie, if we call it Fast Five."

If they wern't gunna change the title card then they should have advertised it as Fast5.

It's almost as bad as studios releasing trailers that include scenes that are cut from the film! That really grinds my gears...

But I do seem to recal a lot of people from across the pond complaining about how crappy Fast5 was for a title, and they wanted it to be called Fast & Furious 5: Rio Heist over there too.

I don't understand why they changed it to be honest. What difference does it make really?

Does HMV exchange if they arrived damaged?

I'm shocked it even has artwork inside. Most of the time, horizontal ones don't have any. I don't mind the layout, and I like that it doesn't have the ratings logos on it. I will probably get this one since I'm not a huge fan of Chargers (I can live with it on the back).

I cancelled mine the minute I noticed the horizontal cover, a big no no for me, loved the original design though. I have opted for the Wheel box set which is miles nicer

Well, at least it's better than the first 4 movies, albeit only marginally.
