A worthy choice for Best Picture

Very happy that Guillermo del Toro got his just recognition as the great director he is. Sally Hawkins gives a masterful performance as well.
As for the SteelBook, I'm so happy this was released domestically. I had an order in to import this SteelBook from overseas!

Not as good as the first...

but still enjoyable. To me, the first Sicario, under Denis Villeneuve's masterful direction, was far superior.

Loved this movie

So glad they re-released this in SteelBook form. It's a classic Disney film.
The paint on the SteelBook is supposed to be glow in the dark, but I've found that the glow is very weak. Perhaps I didn't leave it under a light long enough.

Pretty good spy thriller

I was pleasantly surprised by this spy thriller starring Jennifer Lawrence and Joel Edgerton. It was well written and well acted.
This is a beautiful SteelBook, but the glossy finish with the black paint makes this a fingerprint magnet!

DC still has a ways to catch Marvel...
on December 18, 2018
Posted by: DMVDB
from Fairfax, VA
Verified Purchase:Yes
My favorite superhero is Batman. He was the first superhero I knew growing up, and he epitomized the definition of "superhero" for me. But while Batman is my favorite superhero, the Marvel universe is my favorite comic book universe. That translates to the screen as well. It is incredible what the MCU has done.
I was excited to see Justice League on the big screen. While I loved Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale's Batman, I longed to see him interact with other DC heroes. Gal Gadot is fantastic as Wonder Woman, as is Ezra MIller as the Flash. I like Henry Cavill as Superman, though I know he divides a lot of fans on his portrayal of Superman. I had no problem with any of the Justice League...whoever, it seemed like WB rushed to get the DCEU on screen, whereas the MCU took their time over years and plenty of films. Despite this, it's still a good time to be a comic book fan.

in Damien Chazelle. JK Simmons deservedly won an Oscar for his portrayal of a hard nosed music teacher whom pushes Miles Teller's character to the limit.

Finally, a return to form...

for M. Night Shamaylan. After the success of The Sixth Sense, his movies have failed to replicate the success of his first film (though I liked Unbreakable). This movie was excellently written, directed, and acted. James McAvoy should have garnered an Academy Award nomination for this film.
And though this film has been out for two years now, I won't spoil the ending...but it is a BIG PAYOFF.

Fun musical

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've never been a fan of musicals (save The Sound of Music...who doesn't like that movie? LOL) but in my old age, I've been appreciating musicals more. I really enjoyed this film and was surprised that my wife (who I know likes plays and musicals) didn't.
I like the minimalist design of this SteelBook.

Better alternatives out there...

Really wish these were a little bit easier to install. Ended up with an air bubble under the screen protector. This was included as part of a bundle. It's pretty pricey on it's own...
I ended up opting for a glass screen protector instead.

Another home run for Guy Ritchie
By Binkxsmom
I love all Guy Ritchie movies, and this one doesn't disappoint! So many sub plots and subtle comedy throughout. Highly recommend. Not suitable for younger people.

Step up to great sound with our TCL 2.0 channel S Class sound bar featuring Dolby Atmos and DTS Virtual:X. Easy connectivity with HDMI eARC, Bluetooth, and more. Enjoy your favorite entertainment with crisp, clear sound making movies and music truly come to life.
 

I am trying to use the sound bar with the hdmi cord but it says there is no connection found when I switch to the hdmi port that it is connected to, resulting in me using the Bluetooth but I found that using it results in a delay if the sound to visual

Make sure the HDMI cable is connected to a HDMI port labelled HDMI eARC on your television.

Equipped with a solar panel, the Renogy E.Lumen 500 Multi-functional Flashlight harnesses the power of the sun to light your way in the dark. A built-in rechargeable battery is at the ready to power up your mobile devices at any time and an integrated seat belt cutter, glass shattering hammer, magnetic attachment.
 

I am supposed to receive 3 flashlights as shown and I only received one? It says 3 and has a picture of three. Please send the other two.

Yeah, you need to call or chat with customer service. You were supposed to get three flashlights in individual packages (which is what I received).

I previously had three of these flashlights which are great to have in your vehicle(s).

With upgraded chip technology, VanTop HF609T mirror dash cam fulfills Ultra HD video resolution up to 1920*1080P@30fps for both front and rear view camera, presenting remarkable HD images and videos.
 

Does it record with the screen off and plugged in?

Yes. You have to go in the settings and adjust it so that it is not constantly playing back on the screen. The screen can be utilized as a "regular" rear view mirror, but will record from the front and rear cams.

Sorry if this question sounds silly. Would like to purchase this kit if I wanted to purchase say maybe 15-20 bulbs separately do i need another kit to control all the lights or what would I need to control them from room to room? Want a rgb smart home

I currently have nine bulbs, a Hue Go, and two Hue Plays set up to the same Hub. I’m not sure if there are any limits to the amount of bulbs you can link to it.

If money weren’t an issue, I’d outfit my entire home in the Hue Ecosystem. My dining room light has six candle bulbs. At the current price of $50 a pop, that’s too cost prohibitive! Would also like Hue bulbs in recessed lighting. Sigh...if only I was a millionaire (yep, millionaire not billionaire...I’m not greedy).

how is the Switch powered? does it need to be hooked up like a regular light switch?

The switch is battery powered, and is actually removable from the wall plate. You can mount the wall plate on the wall with the attached adhesive strips, or drill holes and mount the plate with screws. There’s no hardwiring the switch at all.
