Title: You like the movies or you don't
Review: This package saves a lot of space on my DVD rack. What was 10 cases now takes up the space of 2 or 3. The digital codes are expired, but they still work. Just a warning, if you already have the movie in your digital library and attempt to redeem a code for the same movie, it will void the code.

Title: Best Pictures in one package!
Review: I am glad that this came with digital copies of each movies. The discs are from the individual releases previously released by Paramount. Without a digital copy, this set is redundant and useless if you have most if not all of the individual releases. Recommended

Title: Excellent collection of classic movies.
Review: An excellent collection of classic movies, all on Blu-ray, sturdy extra-large Blu-ray case. The picture showing the back of the Blu-ray states digital movie included, but in fact you get digital codes to redeem for all 10 movies. That should be changed on the artwork from the studio.
