In 2017, Iraq War veteran Brian Brown-Easley (John Boyega) walked into an Atlanta bank and threatened to detonate a bomb if his demand wasn't met. His ask? Eight hundred and ninety-two dollars-the withheld amount of VA benefits that stood between him and homelessness. The efforts of police negotiator Eli Bernard (Michael Kenneth Williams) to keep the situation from escalating fuel this gripping, fact-based effort. Nicole Beharie, Connie Britton, Selenis Leyva, Jeffrey Donovan co-star. 103 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

If you want to laugh this movie is for you. Its gritty and just plain old fun. Again, this my era. The quality of work was excellent, the story was great, and the actors brought their A games.

Based on actual events, this powerful drama stars Samuel L. Jackson as California high school basketball coach Ken Carter.

Ashanti, Rick Gonzales, Rob Brown, Debbi Morgan co-star. 136 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks English Dolby TrueHD 5.1, French Dolby Digital 5.1, Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1, Portuguese Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles English (SDH), French, Portuguese, Spanish.

Spinning Gold tells the unbelievably true story of music industry's most colorful and brilliant music producer, Neil Bogart, founder of Casablanca Records. Along with a rag tag team of young music lovers, Neil and Casablanca Records would rewrite history and change the music industry forever-igniting the careers of legendary icons like Donna Summer, Parliament, Gladys Knight and KISS, whose mix of creative insanity shaped our culture and ultimately defined a generation. In a story so incredible that it can only be true, comes the motion picture event that created and inspired the greatest soundtrack of our lives.

Thank you for the music

Disco might be dead, but you can still feel it's beat. For my era this was music's pinnacle. I love the nostalgia of this movie. Of course, there is some fiction and some fact. But you choose which to believe. This is a great movie. And this is a story that needed to be told. All heros d I not wear capes or fly. I would like to pesonally thank Mr. Bogart for his musical contributions to the story of my life.

#2 Cage Movie
on August 4, 2023
Posted by: Commando
Verified Purchase:Yes
One of my all time favorite Nicholas Cage movies. The movie is exhilarating. It is only eclipsed by my favorite Cage movie, Face Off. The directing, the acting, and acting is top notch. If you're looking for a movie for movie night, put this one on the top of this list.

Coming off of therapy, the assassin code-named InchLadybugInch (Brad Pitt) felt sure his string of bad luck was behind him-and that his new gig retrieving a briefcase from a Tokyo-to-Kyoto high-speed train would be a piece of cake. He'd be wrong on both counts, as a half-dozen other contract killers were after the same prize... and their seemingly unconnected agendas would prove anything but. Audacious actioner co-stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Brian Tyree Henry, Joey King, Michael Shannon. 126 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

On the fence

Im still on the fence about this one. I've started watching this one 4 times and I've stopped it 4 times. Others have told me it's a good movie, for some reason or another this one doesn't capture my attention. I'll hopefully finish watching it and possibly give it a stellar review.

Great movie

I loved the historical aspect of the film. I had to get past the title, seemed like an oxymoron. But the acting and the acting was excellent. This is a movie that will hit home in more ways than one. This a movie about humanity, something we all should strive to give more of.

Make movies and games come to life with the immersive detail and contrast of Full Array LED, powered by the intelligent Cognitive Processor XR. See billions of accurate colors, each reproduced with the subtle differences of the real world with XR Triluminos Pro. And XR Contrast Booster 10 further enhances the dynamic range of the picture bringing out the beauty in everything you watch.
 

Hi! What is a compatible sound bar/sound system. Will Dolby Atmos sound bar work well? Trying to stay on budget.

It's all about money and sound quality. First, ask yourself how much are you willing to invest and then, what do you really want or need. Most of the Sony sound bars work great. But if you're looking to get that extra punch you'll have to ante up for the wireless sub.

I understand the distance between the two stand legs is 53 and 5/8 inches. Are these stands adjustable, meaning can I bring them closer to reduce this distance? Thanks.

Unfortunately, no.

How is this better than the X80K model? How are the viewing angles from the side& does it have ATSC 3.0 for OTA 4k broadcasting? Thanks in advance.

This television is the difference of night and day versus the X80k. If you want or need anti reflection or the X wide angle unfortunately you would have to upgrade to the X95k, if you prefer. I haven't noticed any issues. But i normally watch movies in a room with enough lighting to only see the buttons on the remote. Once Sony makes a remote with backlighting my issue is solved.

Does this TV have wifi capability?

Most smart televisions utilize wifi in some respect, what are you using the wifi for?

Can I use this tv outdoors? It'll be under a covered patio and not get any rain nor sunlight.

As long as it's covered and away from the elements you should be fine but weather and electronics do not mix.

We are thinking of purchasing two of these to use as video screen for our church. Would you recommend this TV for this application? If not what would you suggest?

Great decision, you will not be disappointed.

Has the TV's constant rebooting problem been resolved, this rebooting issue "complaining customers" is keeping me from purchasing this TV, and I hear the remote is horrible with no #'s on the buttons?

I haven't incurred any issues yet

Does this exact version have a digital code with it? The photo doesn’t show the J card that usually specifies if it has the digital.

No digital code.

The back of its case shows both "Dolby Vision" and "HDR10+" logos... So, which one is it??... I thought they were different/competing formats.

Without being too technical, Dolby Vision is the better format. HDR 10+ has about 4000 nits and 1 billion shades of color. Dolby Vision enhances those numbers. But everything is dependent upon the electronics in use (TV, 4k player, video content, etc.)
