When choosing which mutant hero they would use to launch the X-MEN feature-film prequel series ORIGINS, the creators of the hugely successful franchise had a no-brainer of a decision in going with Wolverine. Not only is he the most well-known and popular X-Men character, but Wolverine-as brought expertly to life in true leading-man fashion by Hugh Jackman-was essentially the star of the three previous X-MEN movies. As the title implies, X-MEN ORIGINS WOLVERINE is the back story of the fiery and conflicted Wolverine (ni James Logan), whose mutant powers include killer claws that shoot from his knuckles and a regenerative ability that allows him to live seemingly forever. Starring Liev Schreiber, Hugh Jackman, Danny Huston, Ryan Reynolds, Director Gavin Hood Special Features Widescreen Audio Dolby Digital 5.1 - English, French, Spanish Subtitles - English, French, Spanish Runtime 107 Minutes

Good, but...
on January 9, 2021

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am a huge Marvel fan. I have watched the entire Marvel series (23 movies) in order a few times. It all makes sense. They develop the characters, dot all the lines together, and it flows. I was expecting a similar experience with X-Men. While they are good movies, there is no flow to them and they make no sense. Star Wars came out with 4, 5, 6, then 1, 2, 3, but at least they made sense. X-Men has a prequel in the mix, but then a couple other movies that are same characters, different time frame, but ‘hey, how can this guy be this old and this guy still young’, and the timelines don’t mesh and flow. It’s like how the Home Alone people thought up similar stories yet threw different people. That all said, these are very good, very high-quality films, any one of which as a stand-alone would be a great movie. But when you watch them all expecting there to be flow like the Marvel movies, that is lacking here.

LG TV's beat the competition
on December 20, 2020
Posted by: Rick
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had originally set out to get the 60" version but everyone sold out of that particular model on Black Friday. This was $50 less and only slightly smaller. Don't believe all the hype on Samsung, I've had both and LG is my brand going forward. Better quality and decently priced.

Actor-director Forest Whitaker (Waiting to Exhale) helmed this romantic drama about a one-time high-school beauty queen who returns to her hometown of Smithville, Texas. The Steven Rogers screenplay begins in Chicago where blonde Connie (Rosanna Arquette, uncredited) appears on a trashy daytime talk show and tells a nationwide TV audience about her affair with the husband of her best friend, Birdie Pruitt (Sandra Bullock). Walking into the ambush, Birdie is paraded forth for a public humiliation as Connie's claim is confirmed by husband Bill (Michael Pare). Birdie and her young daughter Bernice (Mae Whitman) then move back to Texas to live with Birdie's eccentric mother, Ramona (Gena Rowlands), a taxidermist who has stuffed the house with stuffed animals. Since most of Smithville saw the TV show, embarrassment keeps Birdie sitting around the house in her pajamas. However, her moment of glory as the homecoming "Queen of Corn" has not been forgotten by handyman Justin Matisse (Harry Connick Jr.), the first guy who kissed her back in high school, so a romance soon begins. "Just give hope a chance to float up, and it will," says Birdie.

Decent chick flick
on December 20, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is not my favorite Sandra B movie but it's right up there. Harry Connick Jr. plays a good role on it too. It's definitely a chick flick but a good one. It's hard to not like a movie she is in.

Martha Coolidge's teen film Valley Girl gets the deluxe treatment from MGM/UA on this release. The film is presented in a pair of transfers. The widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, and is preferable to the standard full-frame image. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, and a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Mono. English, French, and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a commentary track recorded by Coolidge. She communicates the joy of making the film, her affection for the cast, and the hard work that went into making a film with so small a budget. There is also a "pop-up" track full of '80s trivia. Coolidge and star Nicolas Cage interview each other in one featurette, while a standard looking-back-on-the-film featurette contains interviews with most of the cast. Music videos from Modern English and the Plimsouls are included. The original theatrical trailer, and storyboard-to-screen comparisons round out this excellent package from MGM/UA.

Early Nicholas Cage

Classic 80's movie and it's really cool to see the beginnings of Nicholas Cage. This shows a different side of him than most of his later films. Worth the watch.

DeadInappropriate as Deadpool should be
on December 11, 2020
Posted by: Rick
Verified Purchase:Yes
These movies are not for the faint of heart. You have to understand them. It's not really a superhero movie so much as a spoof. It's gory and action-packed yet somehow it's more of a comedy than anything. Not advisable for young ears or ears easily offended. For those with an open-minded outside the box sense of humor these are fabulous. Pay close attention to subtle little things, This movie has Josh Brolin and in a quick quiet second, Deadpool calls him Thanos. Brilliantly written. Awful but I love it.

Great reciever with good features
on November 7, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
Excellent power and features. I needed an old school receiver with radio and phono inputs yet adding Bluetooth and this is one of few that has all of that. The radio receiver is not super strong though and does not pick up well but I may expand the antenna to see if that helps. Plenty of power.

Love my Ring spotlight cams but the light does drain the battery. This was a great alternative to having to charge the battery every week.

I paid more for an Arlo system and they were nothing but trouble. I have had great luck with the Ring security system so I decided to try their cameras. Great quality and super easy setup.
