Apple 4K 3rd Generation is awesome !!!
on June 20, 2023
Posted by: THEHOGG
Verified Purchase:Yes
Have owned other streaming devices such as Roku, but I find this Apple TV 4K 128GB 3rd generation to outperform them all.
Speed is excellent as well as 4K video and excellent Dolby Atmos when available. A bit pricey compared to others but well worth it.

The fourth chapter in the hugely successful and acclaimed action film series finds assassin John Wick (Keanu Reeves) gunning (quite literally) for the global crime consortium, the High Table. Wick challenges top member the Marquis Vincent de Gramont (Bill Skarsg~rd) to a duel, but first he'll have to fight the requisite hordes of lethal enemies, not the least of which is longtime friend Caine (Donnie Yen). With Laurence Fishburne, Ian McShane. 169 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Plenty of action and killing as in all of the other chapters. Sound and picture are excellent. Still not as good as the first one as far as the movie itself is concerned.

On forced work sabbatical-and barred from using weaponry or lethal force-Michael Bryce (Ryan Reynolds) gets saved from a would-be killer by Sonia Kincaid (Salma Hayek), spouse of frenemy Darius (Samuel L. Jackson). It wasn't out of the goodness of her heart, as she needs Bryce's help springing her husband from the clutches of an international mobster (Antonio Banderas)... and all he's bringing to the fight are his wits. Fast-paced follow-up co-stars Morgan Freeman, Frank Grillo, Richard E. Grant, Tom Hopper. 116 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard is a must have.
on December 18, 2021

Verified Purchase:Yes
What can you say? Any movie with Ryan Reynolds and Samuel Jackson has to be great. This movie did not fail.
The action was great as can be expected. The 4K transfer is excellent and the Dolby Atmos soundtrack is spot on.
Hope we can get a sequel that is as good as this one.

Vizio P series
on December 18, 2021
Posted by: THEHOGG
Verified Purchase:Yes
Best tv I have ever purchased. This is the second P series Vizio I have owned. The first was a 65 inch and I now have room for the 75 inch.
Picture quality is second to none. Many reviews have rated the Vizio P series one of the best short of OLED.
Black is black and hardly any blooming when white text comes up on a black background. Colors are very brilliant and sharp.
Many adjustments can be made to suit your taste, but the factory presets are very good on their own. Picture is very bright so there would be no problem in a well lit room.
I'll have to work on enlarging my space and saving for the 85 inch. That could be a long time...lol.

If you liked the first one you will definitely like this one. Pretty much based on the same premise, but different enough to keep your attention.

Apple TV 4K 64GB

Responds quickly, but takes awhile to load apps. 4K picture and Dolby Atmos sound have worked quite well if the app supports these.
It's performance is about the same as Roku. Remote is awful small and hard to navigate at first. Go into settings and turn off the TOUCH feature and it will make a big difference.

Voices too "Boomy" for a center channel
on July 25, 2021
Posted by: THEHOGG
Verified Purchase:Yes
My center speaker gave out and I decided to buy the Polk S35. Reviews looked good and Polk has a good reputation for quality sound.
I immediately hooked it up upon arrival. I did all of the adjusting I could and still did not like the sound. The voices were too "Boomy" and bass heavy for a center channel. I returned it to Best Buy with no problem.
I then purchased a Klipsch RP 450C. It made a world of difference to my ears and I am very pleased with the Klipsch.

Great Movie with great video and audio. One of Brad Pitts better performances. This film shows the real horrors of war and the heroes.
An awesome soundtrack puts you right in the action. Sharp 4K picture even inside the tank where there is not much light.

Excellent 4k presentation
on December 18, 2020
Posted by: THEHOGG
Verified Purchase:Yes
Always liked these movies and I was not disappointed with the new 4k reissue. Images are crisp and clear, quite an improvement even over the Blu-ray release.
The Dolby Atmos certainly improved the sound track. Not a demo disc for Dolby Atmos, but a great improvement over the original sound track.
The only reason for only 4 stars is the packaging. The discs are all slipped into cardboard sleeves and they are stuffed in extremely tight. You can't help but touch the discs and it could be possible to break or crack them.

I have a second generation 64 K Apple tv...I am satisfied with it most of the time. What does the new 3rd generation 128GB have or do better than the previous generation? Hate to invest in the newer model if I don't see any improvements!
