I have thoroughly enjoyed each of the entries in the Johnny Depp "Pirates of the Caribbean" saga. Captain Jack Sparrow has become as iconic in the this last twenty years as Luke Skywalker was in the twenty years preceeding him. This latest entry is outstanding and ties the entire saga together in an ending that is as uplifting as it is satisfying. If this is indeed theend of the "Pirates" saga, as many believe, it goes out with a bang!

I remember when "The Hunt for Red October" first came out in 1990. I was astonished that a movie about submarines, secret agents, political games, and characters not named James Bond could be so incredibly entertaining! Thirty+ years later, this classic film has been released in a top-notch 4k steelbook edition that has never looked, sounded, or appeared better. What a film!

I loved this movie! What an amazing, fun, and absolutely raucous origin story for one of Disney's greatest villians! Emma Thompson gives a deliciously evil performance as Cruella's rival, while Emma Stone gives a masterful performance as Ms. DeVil and you find yourself rooting at times for both in spite of the fact that you can see each start to go "a little mad" themselves. But just wait for the moth scene. Honestly one of the best surprises in the whole film! Highly recommended!

I first saw "Onward" in late February 2020 at a pre-screening event. This was just a few weeks before the virus known as COVID-19 changed so many things we know about our world. So maybe it was a mixture of nostalgia and longing for the way things used to be that caused me to make this purchase. But I'm incredibly pleased with the cover art of the package, the design of the steelbook, and the fun mystical film inside. This is truly one of the best films PIXAR has put out since "Inside Out." It's a shame that the pandemic all but destroyed its run in theaters.

Love the newest addition to the MCU released on 4K blu-ray! Scarlett Johansson has owned this role for the better part of a decade and her swan song is as much of a tribute to her as it is to launching the MCU career of her "sister" as the new Black Widow moving forward, Yelena (Florence Pugh). The movie looks great on 4k blu-ray and looks especially fantastic in this steelbook edition. Highly recommended!

Still scares me right to death when the shark starts to attack. The music has been ingrained in my mind for a long time. They truly will need a much bigger boat!

Not as good as the original, but still entertaining and enjoyable. Gal Gadot owns this role though and does a fantastic job showing the two sides of Wonder Woman's/Diana's persona. I especially liked the way that Patty Jenkins incorporated many of the same characters who were instrumental in Diana's life in the first film to make key appearances in this one as well, such as Connie Nielsen's Hippolyta and Robin Wright's Antiope in flashback scenes to when Diana was a child and of course the "resurrection" of Steve Trevor. New characters play key roles as well starting with Kristin Wiig's Cheetah and Pedro Pascal's Maxwell Lord.

I have loved this film since seeing it as an 8-yr. old way back in 1978. The tagline back then was that "You Will Believe A Man Can Fly!" And boy did I ever! Special effects have certainly changed over the years, but I'll always hold a special place in my heart for films like this one that truly made me believe in the impossible. I'm thrilled to add this new 4k remaster of one of my favorite films to my collection!

Even though the "sequel trilogy" has been a mixed bag at best, the conclusion of the series with this film isn't a bad way to end the saga. The 4k steelbook itself is cool with exclusive art and unique-looking discs. It makes for a fine addition on my shelf with the rest of the Star Wars steelbooks I've acquired in my lifetime. My favorite Star Wars films are still the originals---Empire, A New Hope, and Return of the Jedi, in that order---but it's nice that the Skywalker Saga has come to a nice conclusion.

Animals running rampant down the street. Chaos in the air. A hunter trying to chase down his quarry. And the sound of beating drums. Welcome to Jumanji, the 1995 classic starring Robin Williams that began the Jumanji series. This film is funny, exciting, action-packed, and above all, fun. Two thumbs up for the one that started it all!
