Another Great Marvel Entry
on June 26, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
The mostly black cast is well suited to the storyline and they all bring engaging gifts to the screen. Even though Chadwick Boseman and Michael Jordan are the leads, The Walking Dead's Danai Gurira is a standout in an important supporting role. Marvel doesn't disappoint in action, SFX or in moving the story for what's to come.

The Funniest Avengers Movie
on June 26, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Several knee slapping belly laughs in this one if you've followed the series. Repeated viewings bring out many subtleties. Action is well thought out, characters are suitably heroic and the 4K image is spectacular as are the sound effects.

The T2 Sequel Fans Have Been Waiting For.
on June 26, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
One can skip all of other Terminator movies in the franchise if they wish and just do Terminator, Terminator 2 Judgement Day and this one for a complete story. No big surprises but the action is over the top with excellent, seamless effects. The 4K image is super. Definitely for Terminator fans.

Captivating from start to finish, the leads bring their characters to life, peppered with motor-head thrills and realistic racing effects. The 4K image is superb and the soundtrack is enveloping.

Another Big Monster Fest
on June 19, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
This time Del Toro takes more of a back seat in the production of this sequel and as a result seems a bit slower and less exciting than the first time out but the city scale destruction, volume levels, and over the top effects still pack a good punch.

Big Monster Fest
on June 19, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Director Del Toro's venture into the big monster genre is, as it should be, over the top in all aspects: city scale destruction, huge special effects, colorful, LOUD and testosterone driven characters, Impressive, as long as you put your belief systems in neutral.

Hard hitting war drama
on May 20, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Image, sound, acting, costumes, set design and best of all the camera work make this one of the best war movies to date. The sound envelopment builds to a searing climax as the main character finally makes it to the command station as he dodges running soldiers, muddy terrain, exhaustion and exploding shells as the music and sound effects combine to portray his desperation throughout his run across the battlefield. Bears up very well on repeated viewings. Not to be missed.

Not Very Civil but...
on May 8, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
I read that this was intended to be the third Avengers movie but not all original cast members were available so they made Cap the central figure. Doesn't matter. It's an exciting entry into the Marvel canon pulling the story arc further ahead than expected. Every gets a piece of everyone else in a restrained all out fight not quite to the finish.

Can't Ask for an Easier Streamer
on February 19, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Roku is the right price and packs a lot of apps into one small stick. The WiFi connection gets lost every once in awhile but that's the fault of my basement and distance from our router which I have to remedy. Otherwise, there's a host of content that is easily accessible and just as easy to set up. Just follow the on screen instructions after plugging it in to your preferred HDMI input.

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.

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.

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.

Does this have a direct ethernet port?
The specifications for inputs/outputs do not list Ethernet port but the photos seem to show a RJ45 port quite clearly, which presumably is for Ethernet connection. I have one of these laptops on order. When I placed the order in-store the sales rep pointed it out to me in the photo.

I bought a Roku Streaming Device from Amazon for an older TV that only has A/V Ports and the program that I choose will come on and then after 15 seconds or so the signal cuts out completely. I tried everything and nothing works why? The tv has no HDMI.

Hi, They actually did not directly answer my question earlier. My question is, does the Roku Ultra have a "ZOOM" feature on it to expand the picture that will fill the screen?" I have an older TV with HDMI but the Roku's that I have don't have "ZOOM".
