About Space Adventure Cobra The Movie 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray
Space Adventure Cobra: The Movie is an anime film directed by Osamu Dezaki and is presented in 4K Ultra HD on blu-ray disc.
In a universe swarming with inhabited planets and bizarre aliens, corrupt governments operate in the pay of star-spanning criminal syndicates and the Justice Federation of United Galaxies places a price on the heads of hardened criminals.
The highest bounty of all rests with the infamous space pirate Cobra, an unstoppable rogue whose left arm conceals a devastating psycho-gun. Presumed dead for two years, Cobra comes out of retirement after an encounter with the beautiful bounty-hunter Jane - a decision which leads him into direct conflict with the sinister Galaxy Pirates, a vast criminal organization led by Crystal Bowie; the personification of death itself.
Together with his female android companion Lady, Cobra sets out with Jane to rescue the bounty-hunter's two lost sisters, and save the wandering planet Miras. But Crystal Bowie is never far behind, and deception and betrayal wait around every corner. A fast-moving, stylish and furiously inventive film from the pen of classic Manga writer Buichi Terasawa, Space Adventure Cobramixes humor and drama in a pulse pounding hymn to the power of love, death, and heavy weaponry!

4/5 Star Unique, Thrilling, and Gorgeous.
by Jonathan McNulty -
Comparable stylistically to many 70's and 80's sci-fi sci-fi anime, this film is unique in that it leans heavily into the gloriously ridiculous and over the top.
The 4K transfer is stunning, offering extremely sharp visuals for most of the film. Some occasional softness is most likely due to issues with the source material and does not detract from the viewing experience.
The real treat however is the HDR. This is a remarkably vibrant and colorful film and benefits incredibly from its presence, providing a bright, lush, and wonderfully rich feast for the eyes.
Japanese audio and English subtitle timing were fine with no issues to report.
This film may not be for everyone, but it's a sub-genre you enjoy and you have a 4K capable display and player, you absolutely owe it to yourself to experience this beautiful and thrilling blast from the past.
Super fun and gorgeous 80's movie

I have never seen anything Cobra but decided to pick this up since I heard the HDR looks great and I wanted to test out my new 4K home theater setup. The movie was great! If you are a fan of funky experimental animation, there is nothing not to love here. The story/world kind of reminds me of Lupin in space. Stylish and awesome action.
The HDR on this disc is also amazing. All the colors absolutely pop out on the screen. I had a lot of fun watching this movie and and hoping to get into the Cobra series next.
A strange yet beautiful and fascinating film

I had no idea what this film was before I watched it and I loved the film as soon as it started. This is an amazing space adventure film and is truly and underrated classic. The 4k release of this film is amazing, the colors and clarity of the picture is amazing. The disc even provides a comparison of the blu ray release to the 4k where you can really see the difference. I recommend giving this movie a try, it's worth it.
