Good value, works fine

Given all the lightning we have here, definitely wanted to get one of these before we installed our new Samsung UHD TV. Has already been called into use and worked just fine. Least expensive model in the store. Replaced a more expensive APC which just up and died not long after the warranty expired.

We'd seen the previews of this one so many times, that we grabbed it when we saw it. Turned out to be a romantic comedy with lots of great Lennon and McCartney songs. Enjoyable little movie.

American car designer Carroll Shelby and driver Ken Miles battle corporate interference, the laws of physics and their own personal demons to build a revolutionary race car for Ford and challenge Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1966.

Good Story
on April 23, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
Being a big racing fan I was looking forward to this one and it did not disappoint. Excellent driving action, well paced script, and reasonable historical accuracy. Would have liked to have seen them include Ford's 2 years of flops before they finally let Shelby be in control.

Riveting

This is the story of just one day shot continuously. A bit like the old series 24 and just as riveting. Non-stop action. Really captures the horror and absurdity of war and the triumph of the human spirit.

Tom Hanks delivers a wonderful performance as Fred Rogers in this affecting biopic. Reluctantly assigned to pen a piece on the iconic children's television host for Esquire magazine, journalist Lloyd Vogel (Matthew Rhys) has his pessimistic views unexpectedly altered when he strikes up a friendship with Mr. Rogers himself, who teaches him some valuable lessons about life. Chris Cooper, Susan Kelechi Watson, Enrico Colantoni, Maryann Plunkett co-star. 108 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Really good movie
on April 18, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'll be honest this was my wife's choice when we ordered 5 movies to help get us through the stay-at-home orders. She remembered Mr. Rogers, while I'm pretty sure I never saw it. For her is was wonderful and nostalgic and for me it was wow, I never expected to enjoy this movie so much. I highly recommend one looks up the Esquire article on which the movie is based. It's a great read.

Good Finish, Fabulous Extra Features
on April 18, 2020
Posted by: MarkinOrlando
Verified Purchase:Yes
We thought the first hour or so of the movie dragged a bit, but then it picked up and came up with all the unexpected twists and turns we've come to expect from this franchise. It did a good job of wrapping up a nine movie series. The movie is 3 and a half stars. The product is excellent because of the bonus features, that are the best we've ever seen in a Blu-ray set. The excellent documentary is over 2 hours long and then there is more.

Great Movie, Poor Extras
on April 18, 2020
Posted by: MarkinOrlando
Verified Purchase:Yes
The movie was 5 star. Easy to see the best actress award in this performance. The extras were 1 star (no star actually). When you buy a Blu-ray in a box, you expect to get a decent amount of extra features to partly justify the cost versus just getting a digital download for a lot less money. This product comes with virtually no extras, a very short bit on how terrific Renee was (she was) and some still photos. Save your money and just get a digital download.

After answering a distress signal from the U.S.S. Enterprise, the U.S.S. Discovery welcomes aboard Captain Christopher Pike (Anson Mount) and begins a new mission to investigate the meaning behind seven mysterious red signals. Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) grapples with her past growing up on Vulcan with her foster parents and brother Spock (Ethan Peck).

We finished seasons one and two now and two is even better than the first season. Great story line. Lots of twists and turns. Excellent extra features. And of course a climax that makes you want to come back for season three. Couldn't ask for more. As I commented on season one, the sound quality is just outstanding.

Welcome to STAR TREK DISCOVERY Season One, an odyssey that unfolds a decade before the era of Star Trek The Original Series. Sonequa Martin-Green stars as Michael Burnham, formerly one of Starfleets's most respected first officers - and now it's first mutineer. A human raised as a Vulcan, Burnham learned early that Inchall life is born from chaos.Inch Her defiance of a direct order resulted in an all-out war with the Klingon Empire, and she was sentenced to life in prison - until Captain Gabriel Lorca (Jason Isaacs) recruits her aboard the U.S.S. Discovery. Joining her on this dramatic, epic journey are Captain Gabriel Lorca (Jason Isaacs), First Officer Saru (Doug Jones), Chief of Security Ash Tyler (Shazad Latif), Chief Engineer Paul Stamets (Anthony Rapp), and Cadet Sylvia Tilly (Mary Wiseman). Together, their powers of logic, science and compassion will meld on their quest for victory, survival and ultimately, peace in the universe.

We made it through season one and it was excellent. Interesting new characters, lots of twists and turns in the plot, great special effects, the sound is really top notch -- all in all Star Trek just keeps rolling along.

Great Movie, but No Extended Version
By MarkinOrlando from Orlando, FL, USA
This review is based on the product received, not the movie. A sticker on the sleeve and the contents bar promised an extended cut with delete scenes not seen in Theaters. It was only available by download. Downloaded it and there was no extra version of the movie. Very disappointing.

I did finally find the extended version. Using Vudu, would not stream to my Samsung Smart TV. Continually restarted even in SD. Works OK and my computer. Not impressed by digital downloads.
