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.

Special Effects Really POP!
on February 18, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a very SFX heavy movie, and HD Blu-Ray really brings them to the fore. Visually stunning, and a fun flick overall. Good sound, too.

Fine Representation of a Great Flick
on February 15, 2020
Posted by: roadtripper
Verified Purchase:Yes
Was this a bargain! I paid like $5 for one of the greatest films of all time, in a beautiful production. Crisp and clean visuals, great sound, just a marvel. A little light on extra features compared to other packages, but that definitely won't detract from someone who just wants to enjoy this masterpiece of a war movie on its own merits.

Decent Entry in the Toy Story Universe
on February 15, 2020
Posted by: roadtripper
Verified Purchase:Yes
Beautiful presentation in terms of resolution and sound- it's just clearly the weakest installment of the Toy Story franchise. It clearly lacks the heart and humor of the others. Worth watching, but don't break your leg to do so...
Still, it's a superb Blu-Ray package.

Darn fine transfer

This film looks great on 4K high def, and you will definitely notice and appreciate the improved sound quality during the gunfight scenes.

Gorgeous Monsters

Verified Purchase:Yes
A very slick, Hollywood realization of the classic Kaiju from Tokyo. Blu ray really does the detail and definition of this film justice.

A Beautiful Reproduction of a Modern Classic
on February 7, 2020
Posted by: roadtripper
Verified Purchase:Yes
Simply gorgeous to look at- this film's 4K reproduction really brings out the sensational resolution and vibrant colors this wonderful film deserves. My Wife was stunned at how much clearer and striking this film's picture is compared to the previous Toy Story offerings, which in all fairness were previously filmed for watching on DVD or worse.

Classic Movie- just "okay" resolution
on February 3, 2020
Posted by: roadtripper
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love this flick, but as for the realization of it on blu-ray... well, you get what you pay for. VERY grainy in some places- especially at the beginning. You'll KNOW you're watching a movie from almost 40 years ago. It's practically begging for a remastering. Sound was "meh" too.

Fantastic Film with a Great Packaging
on January 9, 2020
Posted by: roadtripper
Verified Purchase:Yes
The film itself is brilliant; that goes without saying. Its presentation here, with fine sound and picture resolution definitely does it justice. And the steelbook format of the packaging is almost always my preferred,not only because of the durability, but because it just looks so damned COOL.

Son Loves It
on January 6, 2020
Posted by: roadtripper
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this for my son; he enjoys it, but most of his time is spent on Fortnite (no surprise there). Nevertheless, this game is simply GORGEOUS in HD and the PS4 engine really makes the graphics pop.

Enhance your entertainment system's audio and video performance with this AudioQuest Pearl HDMI cable. It's rated for in-wall installation, making it an ideal option for wall-mounted televisions. Solid long-grain copper conductors work to reduce jitter and distortion for improved sound quality, while air-filled foamed-polyethylene insulation delivers dependable signal strength. With its generous 8-meter length, this Pearl HDMI cable allows for flexible placement in a living room or home theater.
 

Can I used this for a non 4K tv? Just have a regular HD TV

Yes, you can! I plan to get a 4K TV in the near future, but right now I've hooked up my 4K High Res Blu Ray player to a 6 year old Toshiba HD flatscreen (using this cable) and it works just fine. Great, in fact. Of course you need a 4K TV to get the real benefit, but there is still a considerable increase in quality!
