A Character Study
on April 22, 2022
Posted by: DWX1
Verified Purchase:Yes
Not your average "Comic Book Movie" as it happens outside the DC Universe ..or does it. It's a bit closer to Scorsese's "king of Comedy" with a bit of "Taxi Driver". There are story points I could quibble with, but it's an effective film. And this is a stellar visual presentation with a few nice supplements.

Dark, -really, really dark, -but brilliant film about drug addiction. Now presented in 4K, so you can really feel the ...unease.

Highly Recommended

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have a 4K set-up, then this is the best this film has ever looked. I would mention that "dark" scenes are truly dark and there's a lot of natural grain (and I think that's a good thing. This is a sensational package with a ton of terrific special features.

Excellent "B" movie...
on February 28, 2020
Posted by: DWX1
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is one of John Carpenter's later entries and I really enjoyed it. Not his best, mind you, but quite solid. James Woods is a lot of fun as the lead vampire-hunter. What makes this special is the stunning amount of extra features on the disc. Video quality is also quite good. This will be best appreciated by those who are already fans and appreciate lots of behind-the-scenes details.

You already know if you want this...

Verified Purchase:Yes
The films have been around a while, so you probably know if you're a fan or not. However, this is the UHD 4K version and it looks sharper than ever, -it's a real solid presentation that really captures Michael Bay's visual overkill. And, I really liked the visual design of this steelbook (and it's currently $10 cheaper than the standard packaging.

Excellent Film, but there's a "but"..
on February 28, 2020
Posted by: DWX1
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's a terrific follow-up to "The Shining" and it's great to have it in 4k. However, the longer, -some say better, -"Director's Cut" is only available on the enclosed Blu-ray and it's only available in 4k via streaming (which just isn't as good as having on a disc. Still, it's a great movie...

Terrific Old-School All-Star Thriller
on February 14, 2020
Posted by: DWX1
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's a little bit like an '80s Disaster Movie with lots of well-known stars, but it's a Thriller about a sniper at the S***r Bowl. Terrific work from Charleton Heston and John Cassavettes. Includes, -as an extra, -the TV version, which changes the plot completely. The Movie version is terrific and the TV version I hilariously bad.

From the moment she glimpses her idol at the stage door, Eve Harrington (Ann Baxter) is determined to take the reins of power away from the great actress Margo Channing (Bette Davis). Eve maneuvers her way into Margo's Broadway role, becomes a sensation and even causes turmoil in the lives of Margo's director boyfriend (Gary Merrill), her playwright (Hugh Marlowe) and his wife (Celeste Holm). Only the cynical drama critic (Oscar winner George Sanders) sees through Eve, admiring her audacity and perfect pattern of deceit. Thelma Ritter and Marilyn Monroe co-star in this acclaimed classic, which won six Academy Awards and received the most nominations (14) in film history.

An Old-School Classic for the TCM crowd
on February 14, 2020
Posted by: DWX1
Verified Purchase:Yes
"All About Eve" is an old classic with tremendous performances from a stellar class. This is black-and-white and will be best appreciated by the types who love to watch Turner Classic Movies. Packed with great features that take a closer look at the film and Bette Davis's career.

Inventive
on February 14, 2020
Posted by: DWX1
Verified Purchase:Yes
Inventive time-travel tale with Joseph Gordon Levitt and Bruce Willis playing the same character at different ages. If you're familiar with this type of story you'll know the drill. It's fun for the most part and a nice, affordable Blu-ray package.

Does this version of the film feature the Director's Cut as a special feature? Want to decide between getting this amazing looking steelbook or regular Blu-ray with the Director's Cut.

The "Director's Cut" is only available on the enclosed Blu-ray, -which is the same Blu-ray you can buy by itself at a lower price. You do have a digital code and I believe that will get you a 4K version of the longer version.
