![Elvis - 4K Blu-Ray [Standard] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/1b2652e3-dc5e-49c5-9419-e6736aa849da.jpg)
Baz Luhrmann's expectedly electric biopic of the King of Rock 'n' Roll offers an arresting central performance by Austin Butler, as the peaks and valleys of Elvis Presley's performing career are recounted through the deathbed reflections of ex-manager Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks), the Southern Svengali who cannily trained the Tupelo youngster's charismatic gifts on the American public-and just as ruthlessly exploited them. Olivia DeJonge, Richard Roxburgh, Helen Thomson also star. 159 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Surprised by the movie
on December 3, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was actually surprised by the movie Elvis. The movie took me by surprise because it was so well done written directed and the starring cast was really well done. To see Tom Hanks playing Colonel Tom Parker was incredible. Anybody who knows Elvis Presley knows that Colonel Tom Parker was a swindler, a cheat, anaconda artist, nobody even knew his real name I don't even think Elvis did. This takes it all the way back from Elvis's childhood all the way up until just about the time of his death which was pretty impressive and you got to see things that most people probably didn't know about him especially his love of gospel music. I would highly recommend this movie because of just how it was done. I can't give it five stars but it comes pretty close if you're an Elvis Presley fan or you just want to sit down and watch a really good movie this is probably one of the good ones. I highly recommend it.

![Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings - 4K Blu-Ray [Standard] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/ea1521a2-eee0-4117-82d5-5b48c7e8093f.jpg)
Those who thought they knew slacking San Francisco car valet InchShaun XuInch (Simu Liu) best didn't know him at all. In actuality, he was the son of Asia's most dreaded crime lord-the centuries-lived Wenwu (Tony Leung)-who'd had him trained from the cradle to be the greatest martial artist alive... and whose patience with him to come home and claim his infamous birthright has just run out. Action- and fantasy-packed screen bow for Marvel Comics' Master of Kung Fu co-stars Awkwafina, Michelle Yeoh. 132 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Really well done all around.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not a huge fan of the marvel universe but there are exceptions to the rule like this movie. Shang-Chi is really well done. The CGI work, the storyline all really well done. It's great to see an Asian roll being played by Asian people. This gentleman can be a big star just like jet li, and Jackie Chan. The story of the ten rings is completely different but it is extremely well done I was impressed just by the movie itself but add the acting and a betrayal of a father betraying a son and daughter that just adds to it. The love of a mother to her children and the love of the children to their parents to try and save them. It just adds to a storyline even more. I would highly recommend this movie to a marvel fan especially in the 4K version.

![Morbius - BLU-RAY [Standard]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/e1596c43-cd4a-4da4-be70-99a011edc46d.jpg)
For brilliant biochemist Michael Morbius (Jared Leto), it'd been his literal life's work to conquer the rare blood disorder that had left him infirm since boyhood. He'd find his breakthrough via gene splicing with bat DNA-but the controversial cure also left him with superhuman strength, speed, flight... and a craving to consume human blood. Big-screen debut for Marvel Comics' Living Vampire also stars Matt Smith, Adria Arjona, Jared Harris, Tyrese Gibson, Al Madrigal. 104 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Better than I thought

If anybody knows the story of Michael morbius they know from Spider-Man. Michael Moore videos is a gentleman who was sick through childhood trying to find a cure for himself, but wants up with a curse. The movie morbius is actually better than I thought. The storyline was exquisite, the acting was very well done The special effects the CGI or all well done. Had some surprise twists and turns all in all it was very well done. I would recommend it highly if you are a model fan and especially a Spider-Man fan.

It's good but not a classic.

Ghostbusters afterlife. I understand the concept behind this movie it's supposed to take place you know 45 years after the original. Yet it's hard to capture the magic the original Ghostbusters movie had and still has to this day. It's a good movie storyline is really good The acting is really good, but yet I still prefer the original if you're an owner of all the Ghostbusters movies yes this is a must have just keep in the collection. Yet I would say again it's not as good as the original. The CGI graphics the storyline all very well done acting very well done, but I still prefer the original.

Great crime drama action movie.

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you're a jet li fan like I am this is a must-have and anybody's collection. It starts Jackie Chan and Aaliyah. Aaliyah unfortunately passed away in 2000 I think it was one or two from a plane accident up and coming star and very talented. And this movie Jackie Chan is a Chinese police officer who took the rap for his criminal father. His father escapes China to go to the states where his youngest son, jet Li's brother is killed. The whole thing gets complicated because it's a battle between the Chinese and the African Americans for property it's a must-have great storyline pretty good acting straightforward good movie.

Good sci fi movie.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Reign of fire starring Christopher knoll and Matthew McConaughey. This is an interesting movie because it's a what if movie. A young boy goes with his mother who's an engineering down into the European tunnel to connect the UK to France The engineering team happens to keep on a cavern that houses a dragon. Unfortunately the dragon had been sleeping for hundreds of years to be woken by the activity dragon comes alive and singes just about everything it comes in contact with. The human race is becoming extinct forward 25 30 years later. Now you have Christopher knoll who is in the UK who was the small boy. Matthew McConaughey is an American soldier nutcase who takes his ragtag bunch to the UK to try and kill the one dragon that started all this which is the male Great action great storyline CGI graphics are really good for the time. If you like sci-fi this is a good movie to have in your collection.

Incredible to think what if
on September 24, 2022
Posted by: laopwh
Verified Purchase:Yes
First off the movie 2012 I have to say is a what-if movie. What if this had actually happened would it have played out the same way and just how many people in the world would have survived. The crazy thing is the scenario could still play out because anybody who lives in this world right now knows Yellowstone is still a super volcano waiting to erupt. You have a great castanist John Cusack, Woody harrelson and Danny Glover to name a few. I can't imagine what people would have to go through to survive something like this if it was survivable. To know that there's a powder keg sitting in the middle of the United States 20 miles wide that can wipe out humanity in a snap of a finger. You know it'll make mouth Vesuvius look like a firecracker. It's a long movie Phil with a lot of what ifs great special effects and impressive acting. If you're the type of person who likes disaster movies this is a good one to own.

Not even as good as the Dark Knight series
on September 24, 2022
Posted by: laopwh
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's hard to imagine certain people as Bruce Wayne / The Batman. You have people like Adam West, Michael Keaton, and Chris from Nolan. Robert Pattinson most might remember from vampire movies. To me he is absolutely the wrong choice for this movie The kid can't act the kid does not know how to express himself and the movie itself is just to me wrong. To think that Bruce Wayne's father Thomas Wayne could be corrupt as to go to somebody like falcone for a situation is absolutely dead wrong. Anybody who knows Andy Serkus no sense for playing roles like Ulysses Claws in Black Panther, or better yet the voice of smeagol in the Lord of the rings. There's some good actors in this movie but all in all I have to say the movie is average at best. The storyline is just awful The acting is very well done The action is really good That's the only thing that makes this movie average otherwise I would not recommend this movie to anybody but that's just my personal opinion. I own the dark Knight series I own the first Batman with Michael Keaton and Batman returns with Michael Keaton it's hard to compare certain movies with others but this movie is just average maybe just a little below average at best.

The timeless Chinese folk tale of a heroic young woman who takes drastic measures to save her family and country is given an exciting animated treatment by the Disney studio.

Ming-Na Wen supplies the voice of Mulan, with Eddie Murphy as her companion, a wisecracking little dragon named Mushu; other voices include B.D. Wong, Lea Salonga, and Donny Osmond. 88 min.

Big Disney fan

Verified Purchase:Yes
Just like most people 56 years old and I am a big fan of Disney especially it's animated movies. The movie Mulan is very well written the story is incredible but yet a little far-fetched. If a woman of ancient China did this she would have been beheaded on the spot but yet because it's Disney they can change the story. Mulan tries to save her aging father from going to war by taking his place. That in itself is a reason for execution and ancient China. She's successful and becomes soldier thankfully without being found out. She actually saves the young captain and her troops from the Han. And she winds up saving the emperor and getting his good graces. It's 2D animation with a great story great details and it's well worth any Disney collection.

Great movie and stiry

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Prince of Persia The sands of Time starring Jake Gyllenhaal. Also starring Ben Kingsley. Then Kingsley is the brother of the sultan and also a greedy SOB. He wants to throne because he saved his younger brother of the sultan when they were boys. Jake Gyllenhaal character was saved by the sultan as a young boy and adopted by him. He was raised with the sultans to legitimate sons. Ben Kingsley character being that he wants to throne wants the town of agrabah and the legendary dagger with the sands of time to turn back time. If he can turn back time let his brother die he become sultan. The mishaps the craziness what Jake gyllenhaal's character has to go through to keep time set is absolutely crazy to think that you have to battle family to save family is ridiculous but it happens even in this day and age. This movie is worth having in the collection. I'm not a big fan of the video game Prince of Persia but this movie was well written and well done with a great cast.

Sound bars don't get much more convenient than the SK1. Its compact design brings big sound in an ideally proportioned form factor, while the reliable Bluetooth connectivity wirelessly links to compatible devices, including select LG televisions via Sound Sync. To reduce coffee table clutter, the sound bar can be controlled with the TV remote from a variety of brands.
Is this loud for a small living room?
I just bought the sound bar couple weeks ago myself. I have it in a decent-sized room bedroom 10 by 15 the sound quality is very very clear. 410 x 15 bedroom I think that's what you would consider large size sound quality is very crisp very clear you can mute the sound and you can increase the decibels you can play with the base so I would recommend it as a starting out if you want something better go with a higher quality something that has external speakers and also a subwoofer. Honestly for the money it is not bad at all.
