Linklater returns to Dazed & Confused territory.
on August 22, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
After some more "artistic" projects, Richard Linklater returns to the territory that started his career. I saw "Slacker" during its theatrical run in 1991, and "Dazed..." during its theatrical run in 1993. "Everybody Wants Some!!" is a welcome return to the themes and structure of those two films.

Fantastic Blu-ray of Neil's 1978 concert film.
on August 22, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
Video was restored from the original 16mm camera negative, and the audio is presented in both DTS-HD 5.1 and LPCM 2.0. In a word - stunning. The old DVD had great 5.1 audio, but this new Blu-ray is even better, and easily worth the upgrade. Buy with confidence.

SOUTH PARK COMPLETE NINETEENTH SEASON - Blu-ray - This stunning and brave 19th season of South Park follows a serialized model for the first time in the show's history. The season is built around an extended satire of political correctness beginning when a new socially conscious principal comes to town. In other episodes, Mr. Garrison makes a bid for the White House, Randy takes the lead in gentrifying the town, and everyone is looking for their safe space.

Season 19 tries something new, and succeeds.
on August 22, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
For the first time, South Park employs a serial format, as all 10 episodes share a connected theme around political correctness. As in past seasons, the show still hammers away on current societal beliefs and behaviors. Fresh and current, biting and hilarious, as always. As for the Blu-ray set, it's fantastic - great video, audio, and supplements. Plus, Best Buy gets it three weeks earlier, and at a great price.

Extended version an improvement over theatrical.
on August 22, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
With over 30 minutes of additional footage, this Extended Version is an improvement over the Theatrical Version. Plot points are better explained, and the overall flow is improved. But, the film is still over-loaded. I enjoy Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman, but the film would be better by just focusing on Batman & Superman. As it exists, the film just tries to do too much.

Excellent take on an Agatha Christie classic.
on August 3, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
Impressive production of the novel "And Then There Were None," with top-notch acting, mood and atmosphere. It has more of a "horror film" feel to it than any of the other filmed versions of this Agatha Christie classic, which I personally love.

Solid Blu-ray in the continuing IP Man series.
on August 3, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
IP Man 3 isn't my favorite film in this series, but Donnie Yen shines as expected. The third film is a bit melodramatic for my tastes, but Donnie gets to flex his martial arts charisma nicely. The Blu-ray offers great A/V, along with some decent supplemental features.

Solid Blu-ray set of Season 2.
on August 3, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you purchased Season 1, then Season 2 is a must-own. But, if you're unfamiliar with the Pied Piper team, then starting with Season 2 isn't the way to go. Season 1 didn't end on a cliffhanger, but you still need to watch the first season or you'll be lost. The Blu-ray set is strong, and very similar to the Season 1 set.

New addition to the must-see Holiday Season list.
on August 3, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
Krampus has earned a spot on my Holiday Season list of Christmas-ish movies to watch every December. It's very well-made, with some good scares and some good laughs. It's a solid Blu-ray release, with great A/V, and some entertaining supplemental features.

This 2nd Blu-ray version is the one to own.
on July 19, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
Warner Bros. first released The Fugitive on Blu-ray way back in 2006, but this "20th Anniversary Edition" is the one to own - video, audio and special features/supplements are all top-notch. I picked it up for $5.99 as part of a Blu-ray promotion at my local Best Buy.

Great film, lackluster Blu-ray transfer.
on July 19, 2016
Posted by: Martell
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've always loved Witness - I was fortunate to see it in the theater back in Feb. 1985 when it was first released. But, for its Blu-ray debut, it appears Paramount didn't invest in a fresh scan - the image is flat, lacks fine detail, and appears softer than it should. But, the price was right - $5.99, and part of a Blu-ray promotion at a local Best Buy. Best viewed on smaller HDTV's.
