Impressive!

I went into this movie with a skeptical eye, being that I grew up watching the original cast, during it's initial TV series run, and later their 7 movies. After watching this movie, I was blown away by the detail to the new (young) characters appearances and mannerisms compared to the original cast . The transition was seemless, and many unanswered questions to the origional series were answered. Without giving away the plot, the use of Leonard Nimoy (original Spock) in the plot, sealed the deal for me on the transition from the old to the new cast . The acting was superb and plot was well thought out, action packed, and suspensful from start to finish. I would rank this within the top 2 of all Trek movies ever made. Without sounding sappy, It actually brought a tear to my eye, knowing such care was taken to keep this series alive into the future... "where no man has gone before"...

Another Great HP Printer
on February 20, 2014

I use it for:Document printing
Verified Purchase:Yes
Replaced my "old" HP printer, when it came time to get more ink. I decided to purchase this HP, because of the price compared to function was right , and the price of ink was way cheaper than the older model. The newer model also is super fast and better quality than my older one. It was super easy to set up... but what I didn't count on was the ease of how to use each function, by using the control panel display, that walks you through whatever kind of function you want it to do. The print quality is light years better than the older models... and it comes with the ability to sign up for "hpinstantink" ink replacement, which saves you up to 50% on ink purchases! GREAT printer! I have NEVER had problems with HP printers either! Oh yeah... it has wireless printing too for my laptop!!!

"tongue in cheek" Action flick
on January 5, 2014
Posted by: researchsmart
from Charlotte, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
This in my opinion, was a last gasp chance, for all the old original 80's action flick actors to get together, to do (and make fun of) one last huge action flick. The plot was secondary to the action. The one liners were classic over the top macho lines... even incorporating most of Arnolds classics! The action was way over the top too....but then again I'm sure that was intended as well. It's meant to be camp...and it succeeds. But it's still a little sad to see these guys getting so old. If you just love the old 80's action hero flicks....and want a chuckle too, this will be your cup of tea.

![Moneyball - BLU-RAY [Standard]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/fe99a509-8b4e-4857-bf5f-f05fe09b4c91.jpg)
Oakland A's general manager Billy Beane (Brad Pitt) challenges the system and defies conventional wisdom when his is forced to rebuild his small-market team on a limited budget. Despite opposition from the old guard, the media, fans and their own field manager (Philip Seymour Hoffman), Beane - with the help of a young, number-crunching, Yale-educated economist (Jonah Hill) - develops a roster of misfitsand along the way, forever changes the way the game is played.

Not just for sports nuts...

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's hard to make a real life experience appear as good in a movie, as it happened in real life. This movie exceeds that! This movie is based on a general manager (Billy Beane) (Brad Pitt), and an unknown kid (Jonah Hill), that challenged all that baseball has known since its begginings, on how to evaluate talent. It is NOT a boring statistical movie, even though, on the surface, the subject may seem that way. The real life trials (no one wanted them to succeed) and triumphs (a division championship & and MLB history making 20 game winning streak), allow the film to enthrall the viewer in a plot that seems as though it could only be "made up" in a hollywood tale... but infact it REALLY happened. The acting was fantastic, and the story plot lets the viewer understand what they went through, to make history, not follow tradition, and succeed.

Classic 70's
on December 31, 2013
Posted by: researchsmart
from Charlotte, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Boogie nights gives great insight into the excess, that was the seedier movie industry in the early days of the 70's. Tracked through the main characters trials and tribulations (Dirk Diggler), from a nobody - to superstar - to less than nothing (by his own doing). The clothes, hairstyles, talk, behavior, music, and excess of the 70's are captured beautifully. The acting is top notch, and the no holds barred, subject matter makes this movie so compelling. It's NOT glamourous.. it was the reality of those days.

Another great film by Guy Ritchie
on December 31, 2013
Posted by: researchsmart
from Charlotte, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
For any Guy Ritchie film fan, this is another homerun. The way he intermingles several plots to conclude in one ending is amazing and very intriguing to watch. His in depth character development and outstanding acting, is always well done, and entertaining. .. most from the seedier side of London. Though because of this some may find the accent heavy and hard to understand at times. It's still easy to watch despite that. Just be aware, these are movies for thinkers. The several plots have flashbacks, and seem unrelated ... until the end, when it all makes sense.

Intense action
on December 31, 2013
Posted by: researchsmart
from Charlotte, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
This being the second of the Taken series, allows continuation and closure to the first movie. It is always entertaining to see Liam Neeson's characters thought process for out smarting the bad guys, and the action sequences. But at times it seems as though you don't get time to breathe. Almost over the top action from start to finish. I was good though that the second was a continuation of the first, rather than a whole new plot. It gives closure to the first movie.

Keeps you wanting more

This 3rd installment in the Hangover series, seems to be way better than #2. All of the characters are fully involved in this one, and it seems to pull together the questions left from #1. As the credits run I am left with the question... is there more to come?.... I hear not... but ... at the end , there is a good case for #4.

Perfect toast Everytime
on August 29, 2013
Posted by: researchsmart
from Charlotte, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this toaster for my work. It has been used for both bagels (w/ bagel setting) and toast, and so far, it works perfectly every time. It has easy settings for darkness, and the appearance is a plus too, (as many toasters look pretty odd today). The price was awesome for the quality of the toaster, as really cheap basic looking models were not much cheaper, and other than having 2 slots as opposed to 4 slots (which we didn't need), it looks and toasts as well or better than the more expensive models. Oster is also a name I trust.
