Excellent 4K Image Despite the 2K Source
on December 13, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
This first Avengers entry, upon repeated viewings, ratchets up the characters and brings into clearer focus the subsequent plot developments of the later films. Although apparently struck from a 2K master the excellent 4K rendition doesn't disappoint this viewer. The Atmos soundtrack needs some volume boost. Oh yes, plenty o' action.

The image and the sound is phenomenal
on December 7, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Some may think the first third is slow but it's all necessary to establish Steve Rogers' character. Once we get past the transformation the action picks up substantially and, of course, the series' trademark witty dialog is frequently on display. The image looks gorgeous and the sound is phenomenal.

A suitable follow up to Captain America
on December 7, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Captain America never disappoints so Marvel knew they had to come up with a suitable follow up to Captain America, the First Avenger and they did it in spades. This time around the filmmakers were released from the bonds of the necessary back story and get right down to business. The 4k transfer is superb with excellent surrounds and deep bass impact.

Binge Worthy
on December 6, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
The 4k UHD transfer helps substantially with the dark later entries of this fantasy extravaganza and much is gained in all of the films. It's all so much better over my DVD versions. What a hoot it is to see the characters grow not only through adolescence but into their acting chops, too. Binge on this set, if you can.

A Demo List Movie that is also Good Cinema
on November 15, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
An unexpected literate script with acting that out-does the over the top fantasy elements while maintaining the need to develop characters and melding it all into an entertaining, action-filled 2 hours. The 4K transfer is excellent and the surround sound elements are enveloping. Put this one on your demo list.

Godzilla Rules
on November 8, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
An exciting, action filled, special effects laden extravaganza. Any one whoever watched the old Godzilla movies on TV should see this follow up to the 2014 Godzilla. It's got decently drawn characters and puts a room full of giant monsters in your viewing area. The 4K transfer might appear dim to some but that's the filmmakers intent as shadow detail is maintained in the dark segments. Scenes that are lit well are stunning. The multi-track soundscape is totally enveloping. Go for it.

A field trip to Europe with his classmates was supposed to provide Peter Parker (Tom Holland) with a well-earned respite from his superhero alter-ego of Spider-Man. But when he's recruited by superspy Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), Spidey is soon back on the job and teaming up with the InchMysterioInch-us Quentin Beck (Jake Gyllenhaal)-apparently a hero from an alternate universe-for a dangerous mission that may not be what it appears. Zendaya, Jon Favreau, Marisa Tomei co-star in this fun-filled Marvel sequel.

Spidey Does it Again

This follow up to Endgame might be a let down to some after the heavy goings of Endgame but it's an entertaining entry and well worth owning. WARNING: DON'T WATCH IT UNLESS YOU'VE SEEN INFINITY WAR AND ENDGAME, otherwise you'll be spoiling what came before Far from Home.

Not Strange At All....
on October 25, 2019
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had my misgivings about this one going on the big screen but Marvel pulled it off with plenty of room to spare. Cumberbatch is perfect as Stephen Strange and Swinton carries the role of the necessary wise mentor stunningly. The special effects, as usual, are seamless for MCU.

Guardians of the Marvel Universe
on October 25, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
Snappy one-liners, intriguing characters, action galore and awesome special effects. Pay close attention to the dialogue and you'll hear references to other MCU films that actually fill in a gap or two. My favorite one-liner: "I am Groot" packs a wallop in the final act.

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!

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.

Will using a fiber optic HDMI cable eliminate my handshake issues? It takes about 10 seconds for an Image to appear with a 35' HDMI active cable. Will a fiber optic cable be worthwhile? If so, how long might the handshake take to produce an image?
