![Rio 2 [Deluxe Edition] [3 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [3D] [Blu-ray/DVD] [Blu-ray/Blu-ray 3D/DVD] [2014]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/304b2327-370a-41e7-956a-951dd4939472.png)

Above average sequel

Verified Purchase:Yes
I originally bought this movie to add to my 3D movie collection having enjoyed the first "Rio". As with most other sequels, I was not expecting it to be as good as the first. I was pleasantly surprised by this effort ... and it may have been the 3D that added the extra stimuli to elevate it to close to the quality of the first movie. The story followed a natural progression from the earlier one and the continued level of perfection with the image clarity & color only bolstered the film (some second effort animated movies drop both in an effort to "crank" out another version only to bring in more money from a sequel). In my opinion, it is not as good (story wise) as the first ... but still a good movie.

Perfect New Musical Format
on May 25, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm an "old school" movie musical fan. In a past review, from a professional reviewer, he stated, "... the plot continues until a situation becomes so pivotal that a character or characters need to burst out in song ...". This is how I feel a musical should be made ... and "Sing" is a perfect example ... but even more wonderful is the fact that these characters sing from a wide variety of dreams & desires ... as most all of us, who love music, do in our day to day lives. There is an aspect of each of these characters with which I can relate ... so as with any greatly made movie, it makes it more personal to the audience. The fact that this movie is animated does in no way diminish it's effectiveness ... in fact it elevates it to include all ages ... young & old ... in it's scope. It definitely has "Major Power" ... Piggy and more.

Perfect double disc replacements.

I have purchased other blu-ray cases from other places and was very disappointed with those items. But these replacement cases (which are able to hold two discs) were perfect. They are exactly the right size so that they fit into some of the "collectable" 3D and paper outer wrappers that came on some of the original blu-rays. Since these cases can hold two discs, I have been "blending" my previous purchases of DVDs by adding them to the case along with the blu-ray version of the movie (if the blu-ray didn't already have a DVD copy included in it's purchase).

No simple answers to life's questions.

Verified Purchase:Yes
First, I must say I am a big fan of the movie "Contact" written by Carl Sagan. And for me, "Interstellar" achieved the same status. Mixing all kinds of beliefs and opinions into a very thought provoking film. I might not agree with every idea in it, but it did expand my thinking to include some of these other ideas. Matthew McConaughey gives one of his best performances in this movie ... equal to or even better than his Oscar winning role in the "Dallas Buyers Club". And so wonderful to see one of my all time favorite actors, John Lithgow, back in a role to match his abilities. I would very highly recommend this film to anyone.

Be very aware of everything that happens to you in your life. Who knows if some day you will have to call on those experiences to recall them to win big money ... or save your life ... or both. Quite possibly one of the best "underdog makes good" movies ever written.

![Edward Scissorhands: 25th Anniversary - BLU-RAY [Standard]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/63ca6ecf-a6ce-479f-887f-60df32b43c6f.jpg)
Celebrate the 25th anniversary of this beloved masterpiece starring Johnny Depp and directed by Tim Burton. Depp delivers the performance that launched his career, as Edward, an irresistibly charming creation with razor-sharp metal hands and a heart of gold. Edward's lonely life in a Gothic castle changes forever when he meets a kindhearted Avon Lady (Dianne Wiest), who takes him to a pastel paradise known as Suburbia. Thanks to his fantastic talents, Edward becomes a neighborhood sensation, but when he falls in love with Kim (Winona Ryder), he must go to extraordinary lengths to protect her.

The team of Johnny Depp and Tim Burton have given us some of the greatest characters and motion pictures. But this film may be at the top of that list of fantastic meets great story telling movies. This is a true adult fairy-tale with much to teach all of us. The mating of script, director and actors has rarely been better.

How to make a frightening movie!
on September 27, 2016
Posted by: pegasusrider
from Tucson, Arizona
Verified Purchase:Yes
This has to be one of the "greats" of movie making history ... for the simple fact that the "villain" is unseen for almost half of movie. And some how is even more terrifying then when it shows it's teeth. One of the best examples of how frightening the unknown ... or in this case the unseen ... can be. So glad to finally have this film in Blu-ray format.

Double the stars to 10 !!!!

Verified Purchase:Yes
The greatest musical of all time. I'm a huge fan of movie musicals. Growing up in the '60's, I was made aware of all the great musicals of the early years of Hollywood via TV. Fred, Ginger, Gene, Judy, Frank, Bing ... all made life a little more enjoyable through song and dance. For a few years the movie industry seemed to ignore "The Musical". Luckily, the success of Broadway shows started to bring the "greats" to the silver screen ... Funny Girl, Chicago, etc. But for us "rock and rollers" it was Grease that finally hit the high notes. Then one "midnight showing" of a little known (in this country) musical opened at the local theater ... and all the rest of the musicals of the past took a back seat to this phenomenon. I have bought this film in every format it has been released in ... and I'll be the first one in line when they re-work it into 3D format ... or holographic. For all of us "die-hard" Rocky Horror fans ... there will always be ... "a light over at the Frankenstein place."

It's all about the chemistry.

I was a teenager when the TV series was original on, so my time was diverted by many other things at that time. And for myself, the characters on the TV show didn't push all the right buttons. Not so, for this movie! Every character ... and it seemed ... even the actors ... worked so well with one another that the "bond" between them seem very real. Great script only added to the "blow-things-up" genre of movie making. Very high marks to the writer, director and the actors for a blast of a remake.

Interesting concept ... effective movie???
on September 27, 2016
Posted by: pegasusrider

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm a big fan of M. Night Shyamalan's work ... after so many highly matched ideas to finished projects ... you have to have a few that don't quite "work" for everyone. For myself, this film is the latter. Usually the "unseen" threat works very effectively ... and does in some of his other movies. But I just had a harder time with the idea that the "foliage" becomes a menacing force. Too hard for me to accept trees as "thinking" entities.

Protect your Blu-ray Discs with these cases that can fit 2 discs per case to maximize storage and are also compatible with DVDs and CDs to protect your movie and music collection.
Do these cases have the clear plastic film to hold the disc art OUTSIDE?
I've purchased others, and although they had clips inside the case, there was no clear membrane on the outside of the case (front to back, including the spine) to trap/hold art and title cards, etc.
Yes ... these Dynex blu-ray cases have both the clear plastic film to hold the paper art work covers and they have the clips inside to hold any other paper information you would like included in your cases.

What is the spine width? 11mm? 12mm?
I don't have a "mm" ruler ... but these cases are exactly the same size as single blu-ray cases that come standard on those purchases. That is why I purchased these, because I wanted to add some of the older matching title DVDs to the blu-ray versions I've made lately. I have some blu-rays that have 3D covers and some that have "collectable" poster board covers and I didn't want "larger" replacement boxes that won't fit into those special covers. These were perfect.
