The Final Statement
on December 15, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
This final statement by Director Nolan on the Dark Knight trilogy left me with a sense that it was too much of a good thing. Entertaining to be sure but suspending my belief systems was challenged on several occasions. Nonetheless, it's an invigorating romp for the fans that I know. The image brings challenging shadow details out well if your display can handle the dynamic range.

A Good Reboot
on December 15, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Christopher Nolan brings his special brand of direction to the mainstream with this first entry of a trilogy. It's dark, it's action oriented, filled with imposing set design and a soundtrack that will challenge your audio system at times.

Christopher Nolan steps back into the director's chair for this sequel to Batman Begins, which finds the titular superhero coming face to face with his greatest nemesis - the dreaded Joker. Christian Bale returns to the role of Batman, Maggie Gyllenhaal takes over the role of Rachel Dawes (played by Katie Holmes in Batman Begins), and Brokeback Mountain star Heath Ledger dons the ghoulishly gleeful Joker makeup previously worn by Jack Nicholson and Cesar Romero. Just as it begins to appear as if Batman, Lt. James Gordon (Gary Oldman), and District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) are making headway in their tireless battle against the criminal element, a maniacal, wisecracking fiend plunges the streets of Gotham City into complete chaos.

A Good Reboot
on December 15, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Even if you're not a Batman fan, this first entry in what amounts to a reboot of the main character is a worthwhile viewing experience. Action, character development, SFX and better than reasonably good direction by Nolan gives this film an entertaining sense of depth while establishing a good premise for more to come in two sequels. Plenty of DARK scenes will give your display a run for its money.

This set contains all three films from the Wachowski Siblings' The Matrix franchise. In The Matrix, a computer programmer discovers he is the only one able to save mankind from the machines; in The Matrix Reloaded, Neo must protect the Resistance from a rapidly approaching fate; in The Matrix Revolutions, Neo fights to end the war once and for all as the Machines locate the human city of Zion.

Binge Worthy
on December 15, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
This trilogy is a binge worthy endeavor although the third part takes the basic story concept way over the top. Despite the frequent Biblical references that may or may not be on point depending on your point of view, the series is an exciting escape-fest. The picture improves with each subsequent installment and the soundtrack has good impact.

The Iron Man technology gets a major boost and it works its way into the plot like a good comic book should. Stand back for loads of action and lots o' fun with this one. Beautiful 4K image.

Not as Noteworthy as the first Thor but...

Verified Purchase:Yes
Not as noteworthy as the first Thor but it still packs an entertaining wallop. Turn up the volume knob if you want the soundtrack to have its prescribed impact.

They Just Keep Getting Better
on December 13, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
For my money, this second Avengers movie tops the previous one. The villain is more threatening and the effects are more creative. It also effectively sets up what's to come later in the series (if you're paying attention).

The Best Iron Man
on December 13, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my favorite Iron Man entry. It's full of surprises. It has both respectable and despicable characters and has a denouement that is like no other in the series, except for Endgame.

Almost Tops the First One
on December 13, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
This sequel to Iron Man has a hard task in following up its predecessor but it doesn't disappoint. The follow through on the developing Iron Man technology is handled with aplomb and as usual Tony Stark's snappy dialog is worth hearing over and over. As expeccted, Marvel's special effects are seemless.

The Hammer Strikes....
on December 13, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
When the Hammer strikes you can feel it if your subwoofer is up to the task. Wonderful dialog and engaging repartee complements the action and special effects. Great looking image and visceral soundtrack but one must crank the volume for full effect.

Fred's Review Comments
 
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.

ONE OF THE BEST COMIC BOOK MOVIES OF ALL TIME
By Fred
Great movie and to me, one of the best in the XMen franchise. Awesome final outing for Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Patrick Stewart at Professor X. Great story and acting. Highly recommend.

Seems to Have Lost its Blue Teeth!
By Fred
Purchased several weeks ago. Stopped working this morning. No amount of Bluetooth pairing, connecting, reconnecting, rebooting, reinstalling can solve it. Keep getting message to try reconnecting. Now outside return period. Will go to Logitech website for support on manufacturer 1 year warranty.

I bought the phone because I might some day change carirers. It's "unlocked" so it should be compatible with ANY wireless service
