Disappointing
on February 5, 2019
Posted by: BahamaJoe
from South Florida
I liked Sicario and was expecting a good sequel based on the reviews but instead I found Soldado disappointing. Very disjointed plot and it seems to have ended abruptly without a final payoff to make me really care anymore. The 4K version is technically ok and visually interesting but doesn't cure the plot holes or have any extras.

Intelligent Comedy

Perhaps the most enjoyable movie of 2018 if you are looking for a well written comedy for couples night that deals with the Asian American experience. It is very well acted with an Oscar worthy supporting actor performance. The movie is set mostly in Singapore which looks lovely in 4K.

Apple TV 4K lets you watch movies and shows in amazing 4K HDR - and now it completes the picture with immersive sound from Dolby Atmos~. It streams your favorite sports, news, and TV channels live. Has great content from apps like Apple TV+, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and ESPN~. And thanks to Siri, you can control it all with just your voice.

Great TV for Apple fanboys
on November 28, 2018

You will love Apple TV If you have a library of iTunes content and a 4K TV connected to a good audio system. You will need a 4K HDR cable though to connect the Apple TV box to your Tv or audio system. The remote works a bit differently from the earlier generation Apple TV so it will take a few minutes to get used to it. The 4K Apple TV has Netflix and Prime, Pandora and other major apps. In fact, you can list the Apps you want in the set up phase. I like that my apps on Apple TV tend to have less buffering issues and do not go stale requiring you to repopulate your info again . Another thing I like is that you can use Airplay and show your 4K video and camera photos on the full TV screen .
But frankly, 4K Apple TV is a bit redundant for folks who are not heavy users of Apple products for their 4K media content and already stream content from other sources other than Apple Tv. I'm an Apple fan boy so I like it. But freely admit that those who are not might have a different opinion.

Like my new 27 inch iMac !

Verified Purchase:Yes
I had been using a 2012 model iMac in my office and recently upgraded to the 2017 model . I quickly noticed the 5K screen resolution versus 2K in the older one. Colors are more saturated in photos , video and movies with more detail. The other thing you will notice very quickly is the lightning quick processor. WIFI connectivity was great too. It was incredibly easy to port all my data from the old IMAC to the new one. Less than one hour of downloading and I was good to go. The new iMac came with a High Sierra 10.13.6 OSx ( not sure why not Mojave) . Very happy with the upgrade thus far while my old IMAC is still in use as a work station.

Very Good Value

I had an excellent 2 year experience with a Charge 2 and decided recently to upgrade to the Charge 3 Activity Tracker. The band looks trim and sleek yet rugged enough for both work and going out. This tracker has a constant Heart rate monitor and tracks hours of sleep. When synced to a fit bit app on a mobile device you can track a full range of your activity at the gym and throughout the day against goals you've set for yourself. The best things I like though are that you can swim in the ocean with this tracker on and dive up to 50 meters and it still works fine. I also like that the battery charge lasts more than one week. Not bad for the price. Happy with it thus far.

Best DSLR camera for nature lovers
on August 29, 2018
Posted by: BahamaJoe
from South Florida
Verified Purchase:Yes
This camera has great shutter speed which enables fantastic pictures of birds in flight and also active sporting events. You need a good 100-400 mm lens though to capture real professional quality shots from a distance . My wife and i take it on all our birding and wildlife viewing expeditions. It holds up really well . The 20 mega pixel CMOS quality will probably improve in Canon's next iteration of this camera. More WIFI integration would also be welcome.

Steven Spielberg's WWII epic has been hailed as a senses-shattering, realistic depiction of war, telling the emotional story of a no-nonsense U.S. Army captain (Tom Hanks), who, after facing the horrors of Omaha Beach on D-Day, receives orders to lead his troops on a search somewhere in Normandy for Private James Ryan, a lost paratrooper whose three brothers had been killed in combat. Also stars Edward Burns, Tom Sizemore, Barry Pepper, Vin Diesel, and Matt Damon as Ryan. 169 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Worthy 4K upgrade
on August 8, 2018
Posted by: BahamaJoe

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have the original blu ray version and bought the new 4K Ultra HD since this war movie is GOAT. It is definitely a worthy upgrade especially if you have 4K HDR TV and a really good audio system. If not, then get the blu-ray because honestly you can't really beat perfection. The opening Omaha beach landing scene is epic in either the blu ray or 4K Ultra HD version.

No is the right answer. You can get the MLB app on your
4KTV for free if it has google play and you have a google account. Luckily I did.

Love this player for picture quality but streaming app inventory is a definite negative . You really need a smart TV for sport and special purpose apps other than the most popular movie ones which this player does have.
