Only for younglings

Verified Purchase:Yes
Obnoxious, juvenile, and simply unable to follow the rules it sets up for itself... the Ghostbusters reboot is a total dud. This movie tries way too hard and way too often to make you laugh, like an awkward birthday clown. Cringe-worthy. Gone is the low key, dry humor of the first two films, and instead we get jokes about cats in bags and queefs on tape recorders. The cast tries, to their credit, but the failure lands squarely on the director, who clearly had no vision for this film. Only recommended for kiddies and those totally unfamiliar with the originals-- if you're a fan of the 80s films, chances are you will not like this movie (who exactly is the audience for this film? I'm confused). Thumbs way down.

Not the worst in the series...
on April 20, 2018

While it's far from the worst in the series (that honor goes to AvP2), Covenant never quite finds its footing, feeling like something in-between the headier scifi of Prometheus and the gore soaked mayhem of the later entries, such as Resurrection. It's certainly worth a watch, though, as long as you can get past some of the inherit silliness. Picture quality seemed a bit soft, in my opinion, for a 4K disc-- worth mentioning.

Reprising her InchBatman vs. Superman Dawn of JusticeInch role, Gal Gadot stars as DC Comics' superheroine in this exciting solo adventure. During World War I, American pilot and spy Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) crashes on the isolated island of Themyscira, home to Amazon warrior princess-and child of Zeus-Diana (Gadot). Accompanying Trevor back to the world of humans, Diana uses her wondrous powers to help end the conflict, which she believes to be fostered by renegade god Ares. David Thewlis, Connie Nielsen, Robin Wright also star. 141 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Good, not great
on April 20, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
Despite all the reviews, I found Wonder Woman to be simply passable, not the transcendent slice of comic book perfection it was made out to be (that award goes to Logan by a mile for the same year.) While there are some rousing sequences peppered throughout, the by-the-numbers plotting and godawful CGI laden action scenes keep this film from being truly memorable. And that's kind of sad, as this is arguably the DC film universe's best offering to date. Picture quality is also kind of mehh for a 4K disc, so if you're expecting a top-tier 4K experience, look elsewhere. That said, it's a solid, fun enough film and worth the purchase if you liked it to begin with, or are collecting DCEU titles on physical format. 1st time viewers might want to give it a watch though before taking the plunge on the 4K disc's premium price tag.

A tired sequel overstays its welcome
on April 20, 2018
Posted by: Izac
Verified Purchase:Yes
The 1st John Wick is a fun if quickly forgettable slice of action cinema, filled with Gun-Kata-eque gunfight sequences and visceral, practical stunts. By the time the credits roll, it just about overstays its welcome. Within the first 10 minutes of the sequel, you kind of wished they stopped with 1. Boring, repetitive, and protracted action sequences are the tapestry from which a thinly written plot is hung, where John Wick is ostensibly blackmailed into killing someone, or else, or something. Several double-crosses (and silly action sequences later), we arrive at a finale that's managed to not only jump the shark, but a row of schoolbuses along with it. Only recommended for fans of mindless action.

Almost great, but not quite

V for Vendetta is an ambitious, imperfect flick. There's certainly a lot on offer here for fans of the comic, Wachowskis, and dystopian scifi to warrant the purchase. Not great, and not for everyone, but definitely not bad either.

ET has never looked this good, not even on the big screen to my recollection. Big thumbs up, a must have for Spielberg fans.

A cult classic in 4K
on April 20, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
Verhoeven's Scifi trilogy is nigh untouchable... First RoboCop, then Total Recall, finally concluding with the awesomely subversive Starship Troopers. Such an underrated genre gem. I was in the market for the 4K of this flick, but the collector's tin sold me instantly. Highly recommended for fans of the film.

The Terminator returns in this explosive action-adventure spectacle. Now he's one of the good guys, sent back in time to protect John Connor, the boy destined to lead the freedom fighters of the future. Sarah Connor, John's mother, a quintessential survivor has been institutionalized for her warning of the nuclear holocaust she knows is inevitable. Together, the threesome must find a way to stop the ultimate enemy-the T-1000, the most lethal Terminator ever created.

The 10,000th copy of this film I own and counting.

What can be said? This is T2. Arguably the best scifi action flick of all time. And it's never looked this amazing. Films this old have no business looking this good. Once again T2 manages to be a benchmark title for home video enthusiasts, one of the best looking 4K discs around.

Every 27 years, the otherwise nondescript town of Derry, Maine, finds itself stalked by a monstrous, sewer-lurking circus clown who lures trusting children to unholy demises. With the local adults powerless to act, one local 13-year-old (Jaeden Lieberher)-who lost his kid brother to the creature-bands his misfit friends together for a pursuit that confronts them with their greatest fears. Blockbuster big-screen take on the Stephen King classic co-stars Jeremy Ray Taylor, Sophia Lillis, Finn Wolfhard, and Bill Skarsg~rd as Pennywise. 135 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

IT is a helluva horror rollercoaster, managing to outshine the original made for TV film by a mile. Great picture and sound fidelity mixed with some neat bonus features make it a must have for horror collectors and 4K enthusiasts.

1st film is fun trash if you grew up with MK. Honestly that's all I was after, the sequel and Machinima series being included are just a bonus (or curse, in the case of the sequel.)
