In the early '90s, Optimus Prime and the Autobots discovered a teleportation device secreted on Earth that would allow them to return to their planet. The bad news was that the dark god Unicron (voiced by Peter Dinklage) and his Terrorcons wanted the gadget as well... and the emergence of the animalistic allies called the Maximals may not be enough to turn the tide. Seventh series entry co-stars Anthony Ramos, Dominique Fishback and the voices of Pete Davidson, Ron Perlman, Michelle Yeoh. 127 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Writer/director Quentin Tarantino's highly stylized, Oscar-winning salute to old-time crime novels flips back and forth in time to interweave tales of temptation, violence, and redemption. The tangled roster of characters includes hit man odd couple Vincent and Jules (John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson), coke-sniffing mobster's wife Mia (Uma Thurman), and crooked boxer Butch (Bruce Willis). With Harvey Keitel, Ving Rhames, Maria de Medeiros, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Christopher Walken. 154 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks English DTS HD 5.1 Master Audio, French Dolby Digital stereo; Subtitles English, French; featurettes; trivia. Two-disc set.

The fourth chapter in the hugely successful and acclaimed action film series finds assassin John Wick (Keanu Reeves) gunning (quite literally) for the global crime consortium, the High Table. Wick challenges top member the Marquis Vincent de Gramont (Bill Skarsg~rd) to a duel, but first he'll have to fight the requisite hordes of lethal enemies, not the least of which is longtime friend Caine (Donnie Yen).

We open with the Super Mario Brothers reckoning with their struggling plumbing business, and wind up in a whirlwind adventure through Mushroom Kingdom.

Steven Spielberg's WWII epic has been hailed as a senses-shattering, realistic depiction of war, telling the emotional story of a no-nonsense U.S. Army captain (Tom Hanks), who, after facing the horrors of Omaha Beach on D-Day, receives orders to lead his troops on a search somewhere in Normandy for Private James Ryan, a lost paratrooper whose three brothers had been killed in combat. Also stars Edward Burns, Tom Sizemore, Barry Pepper, Vin Diesel, and Matt Damon as Ryan. 169 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Not much different from the blu-ray
By Jake from Triangle, VA
First off, this is a fantastic movie. Hands down. I own the original DVD, blu-ray and now the 4k version. Unfortunately the 4k version is not much different from the blu-ray. Yes, it's definitely more crisp. And the sound is phenomenal. But they're still many scenes where there is a white glow and firery glow trail from fire's. The original DVD did not have this issue. Only the blu-ray and 4k disc have this problem. Also, there's a lot of grain in the 4k transfer. I understand it's an older movie and it was shot on film. But if you watch Leon (The professional) in 4k version. Which is a few year's older than Saving Private Ryan. You'll notice it's a lot cleaner with almost no grain. Personally I wouldn't buy the 4k version if you already have the blu-ray version. On the other hand, if you have a killer sound system like I do. I would definitely buy the 4k version. I give this 3 star's only because of the sound quality. The Dolby Atoms will blow you away.

Certain elements did not transfer well
August 22, 2019
I began watching this and was immediately impressed with the beach scene. However, as the beach scene started to get closer to the end there are a lot of white, washed out areas and the fire behind some German soldiers had long vertical trails that looked absolutely awful. I read that this was an awesome transfer and I am disappointed with that aspect. A little grain and off color is fine, but this was very distracting.

Elevate your home entertainment experience with this Samsung 7.1.4-channel soundbar system. Wi-Fi functionality enables remote control via a virtual assistant, and the wireless subwoofer and rear speakers combine to deliver an immersive audio experience. This 510W Samsung 7.1.4-channel soundbar system features Bluetooth connectivity for wireless media streaming from compatible devices.
 

I looked at the manual and didnt see any recommendations for room size, in particular the recommended ceiling height for the system. The vizio atmos soundbar gives a recommendation for optimal performance, so what does Samsung recommend for theirs?
