Better than the last 2

So this is a film about a teen-aged nerd who's a super hero. And they go full tilt with the teenager angle and it works. If you're looking for adult spiderman, this isn't it. Good character development. Decent plot. Decent action.

It's the year 2029, and much of the world's mutant population has succumbed to a genocidal, man-made virus. As a down-and-out Logan (Hugh Jackman, in his final appearance as the character) comes to terms with his failing healing factor, he and an ailing Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) must protect Laura (Dafne Keen)-a young genetically bred mutant with powers similar to Logan's-from the evil organization that created her. With Richard E. Grant, Boyd Holbrook, Stephen Merchant.

Great character development. Decent action. It didn't have a really rich plot, but the character development really holds it together.

Cheesy fun
on December 1, 2017
Posted by: spencer

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's way over the top cheesy fun. It hasn't quite yet reached the point of teeny bopper cheese like Smallville, but more like supervillains who are just way over the top evil and cartoonish. Which works if you're into that. I felt more for the characters in previous seasons, but this was good in it's own way.

Big plot holes
on December 1, 2017
Posted by: spencer

Verified Purchase:Yes
Ok, so there are a bunch of scenes where you can tell the filmmakers wanted her to say a particular line because they liked the sound of it, but it really truly did not fit in the film. I'ts like "let's stop the film to put this in there" There were a few moments like that. The characters are interesting when they aren't being forced to behave out of character.

Not as good as the first 2

They tossed in a slapstick comedy character to try to hide the poor character development and poor plot. It had potential, but it didn't meet it. Still, I'm a sucker for these films.

Good characters

Fun Disney film. Sort of typical princess adventurer type goes and kicks butt. There are no romantic entanglements, so that's a departure from a bunch of other Disney films. Not filled with songs either. It kinda strikes me more as a lesser Pixar film.

I am a filmmaker and use SanDisk cards almost exclusively. I have never had one fail on me. I haven't had as much luck with other brands.

It works

Verified Purchase:Yes
I used this with a Lenovo Yoga 720. I haven't run this device fully through the paces yet, but haven't run into any problems yet, I use it for connecting an external monitor, and for that, the power it receives from the computer is fine, but it seems from other reviews that if you want to to use more than one function at a time with this, you have to find another power source (which it doesn't come with). So if, for example, you wanted to use an external monitor andthe usb connections, you would need to plug into a USB-C power source that you buy separately. At the writing of this review, these are not readily available at a cheap price. I feel that if they are going to advertise it as doing a bunch of stuff,then it should come with all the parts to do so, so I took it down a star.

My girlfriend couldn't get it to work

My girlfriend loves to tinker with technology, so when she saw this thing that has lots of potential to be used for a wide variety of creative purposes, she flipped. But after a few hours of tinkering, she gave up. The instructions are REALLY bad, and it just doesn't seem to work.

Take your files wherever you go with this Toshiba Canvio Connect II HDTC810XK3A1 external hard drive, which features 1TB of space and a data transfer rate of up to 5 Gbps. The NTI Backup Now EZ software lets you customize your backup options.
 

Scratch disk

Will this hard drive work as a scratch disk when editing video or photos? Is the usb 3.0 fast enough to want to use it as a scratch disk?
I just used it edit a documentary at 720P, 30fps on AVID. I believe the compression was DNXHD75. I also used the same video with After Effects. I had no issues.

USB 3 is fast enough as a sending format for regular HD video. The limiting factor would be the drive. Usually, you want a drive with 7200RPMS. If you don't, then you may sometimes run into issues where the video stalls. But in this case, I edited for a week and had no issues.
