Effective re-make.

Though the original movie looks a little "dated" now, I still enjoy it a bit more than this re-make. The "special effects" do show a big improvement over the original, but I still think the first version carried a little more "heart and feeling" for me.

Even better than the original TV series.

I grew up watching the TV series The Fugitive. I was a very interesting premise for a series at that time. Each week the main character would encounter a new situation involving many different aspects of life. I was afraid that limiting the story to the time limit of one movie would not be as successful. I was very wrong. This was an excellent script and matched with a cast that went to the extremes of great acting. So very happy they now have released it on Blu-ray.

One of the best all round movies ever!

I have been a great fan of this movie ever since it first came out. But I really enjoyed the extra minutes that the director decided to put back into the film a few years ago ... then only available on DVD. I'm so glad that they now have released that "extended" version on Blu-ray.

Chicken or Egg?

It seems to be a habit with Hollywood that when one movie company makes a successful movie on a certain theme ... the rest of the crowd jumps on the idea and releases their version of it. Though this was a above average retelling of the "haves vs have nots", I just didn't think the acting level was up to the standard of a few of the others released about the same time ... "The Hunger Games" or Justin Timberlake's "In Time". I would recommend this movie to someone, if only to see the extremely intense acting done by Jai Courtney ... he stole the whole movie for me.

Much to be loved about the "Original"!

This is a toss up for me ... I love both versions of these movies. "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory" ... and ... Tim Burton's reimagined version, "Charlie & The Chocolate Factory". There is so much "pure imagination" in each version. Of course, Tim Burton's addition of the dentist father figure (we're all aware of that theme in Burton's work) did add a very high emotional scope to his telling of this tale. And Gene Wilder may be the only actor that could out "crazy" Johnny Depp.

A valiant effort!

Good story telling usually lends itself to either repeating or expanding. The Aliens story has historically been one of those tales. This "sharp" look at the beginnings of the saga does a very good job of opening our eyes to the films that proceeded it. All the elements are in place for great movie story telling ... and though some have a marked similarity to the original movie, they do not rely on them too heavily. It was also nice to see a more "petite" heroine to carry on the tradition started by the first Alien movie.

Few films look this good!

We all know this type of person ... when you ask them a simple question, they tell you a long elaborate story as their answer. And on some rare occasions, the telling of the story takes on a "life" of it's own. But sometimes the story is much more interesting than both the original question and the answer. Usually, I disliked a movie that takes 1 1/2 to 2 hours to make a simple point ... but the look and "story" here are both so amazing that I didn't mind waiting while it was told. The 3D version of this film adds another layer to the overall effectiveness of, not only, the story but also the viewing experience too.

Repeat watchings make it better!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Not since "Memento" starring Guy Pearce has a movie used the "repeat" format to this success. I will admit it took some real effort to get the intended effect with "Memento" but not so much with this film. The slight changes to the scenes were just enough to "ease" the repetitive nature of the story. I also think that this was one of Tom Cruise's better jobs of acting. A lot more emotion came across in his face, rather than the somewhat predictable state of mind of most of his acting jobs. We have "repeated" this movie experience several times since buying it ... and especially in the 3D format.

3D - only adds this films greatness!

Longtime one of our favorite movies, recieves a "dino-size" boost in the overall quality of entertainment. This was one movie were it didn't seem possible to make any improvements, but re-working it into the 3D format did just that. It made a super fantastic movie even better. Things were so much "clearer" that we found new points in the movie that we had not seen in our many viewings of this classic film.

Don't miss this 3D experience!

Very similar to Terminator 2, this second effort at "continued" storyline works better than the first movie. Not only is the emotional connections between the main characters given a major increase, but the Minions practically steal the whole show. We let the "menu" options page loop at least 10 times because we were laughing so much and the 3D effects were so awesome. Yet another "classic" movie that can be enjoyed by both kids and adults.

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.
