Inspiring

I am the type of person that is entrepreneurial, so seeing how Ray Kroc franchises the McDonald's empire, albeit at the expense of the real McDonald's I still was left impressed with Kroc's hustling mentality. Michael Keaton's career is definitely revived, and this film continues to be a testament to that latter statement.

Better than Expected

While this is not as memorable as Shyamalan's "The Sixth Sense", "Split" is undoubtedly the best film he has created since then. The beauty of this film not only lies with McAvoy's fantastic performance, it lies with the entire script.

Perfect Comedy
on April 15, 2017
Posted by: JRod
Verified Purchase:Yes
It is movies like these that make me incessantly buy in to certain comedic flicks and this one is no exception. A raucous comedy with both the rambunctiousness of "Animal House" and with the heart of a movie like "There's Something About Mary". Office Christmas Party for me is an achievement is comedy due in large part to TJ Miller, Jason Bateman, and Kate McKinnon.

Incredible

Verified Purchase:Yes
The focal points are as follows: Deserts, Forests, Jungles, Beaches, Mountains, and Urban areas. This is an important documentary because of its impeccable display of animals acting as themselves in the wild. The BBC picked excellent examples of animals stories of survival, often reminding us how our species came to prominence. Planet Earth II is the best nature documentary and the mere fact that it is in 4K should be the icing on the cake.

More Fast, More Furious
on April 11, 2017
Posted by: JRod
Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie is what changed my mind completely about the franchise. Fast Five was great, but it was this film with all of its fast cars and adrenaline that turned me into the series junkie that I now am. The storyline this time is saving Michelle Rodriguez's character technically from her own self. I won't get into it too much as this is a major theme of the story and don't want to spoil it in case you haven't seen it.

Mystical & Thrilling
on April 11, 2017
Posted by: JRod
Verified Purchase:Yes
I Am Legend is the type of film you want to watch over again in case you missed something within your first (or second) observation. There are many nuances of the original story so carefully repackaged that it is impossible not to recognize that fact. Will Smith steals the show, and one can very much see the amount of time it took him to recreate a strong, yet confused heroine surviving in a new brace world full of questions. This looks great in 4K for being 10+ years old and I am glad that WB added this one to their 4K Collection.

Zany, Spectacular, Magnificient Fun
on April 11, 2017
Posted by: JRod
Verified Purchase:Yes
Much like how the Star Wars franchise created a while separate entity in Rogue One, the Harry Potter Universe tries that recipe with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Except in my opinion, Fantastic Beasts was much more story driven and more fun to watch. Scamander is a easy wizard to root for, and taking the story back to the United States helps envision another society full of witchcraft and wizardry. There are some twists and turns that are well-suited for any of the original Harry Potter Books. So glad that this one went straight to cinema!

The Story of Moses Done Right
on April 11, 2017
Posted by: JRod
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you are all about the mystical tale of how Moses freed God's people from the Egyptian King, you will undoubtedly love this one from start to finish. It is grand, it is massive, and it is performed exceptionally by the cast. Christian Bale is an obvious stand-out as he captures the fury that must have overtaken the real
Moses a couple thousand years ago, but also has the poise and depth as an actor to also show Moses' compassion as well. I would hesitate in saying this film is for kids of all ages; if you are thinking about a person younger than 13 watching it, that is totally subjective on account of some violence and major thematic elements.

All in all a great film done by one of the masters of cinema in Ridley Scott.

A New Fan
on April 7, 2017
Posted by: JRod
Verified Purchase:Yes
Honestly, if this hadn't of released on 4K I would have passed. Before I thought, fast cars, action, and hot women in 4K - what could be better? After realizing that those initial thoughts were primitive, I began to realize the emotion depth of the characters especially in terms of family and what it means to be a part of a family. The lengths you will go, and the odds you must defy in order to keep on's family safe. Never before had a been so wrong about a franchise. I am eagerly awaiting the Fate of the Furious this April.

Harry is Back and Better than Ever
on April 7, 2017
Posted by: JRod
Verified Purchase:Yes
For being 10 years old, this film looks magnificent. It is easy to forget how old the movie has become due to the overall pace and special effects. There are some character models that are outdated sure, but the overall spirit of the book is captured with the precision of a smaurai sword. In 4K, this film looks amazing.
