Life can be beautiful. Don~t wait for life to show you a view worth remembering. Make your escape with 4K upscaling, impressive color volume and a mind-blowing, slim design. Enjoy content in ultra-high definition as everything is transformed into 4K resolution by the Quantum Processor. But the experience goes beyond delivering vivid contrast and 100% color volume*.

Great picture, but not so great for older films
on November 3, 2023
Posted by: MermaidFan
Verified Purchase:Yes
Picture quality is great for everything made currently or within the last 10-20 years, or movies that have been upgraded to HD quality. However, I’m an older guy who loves TCM and channels that offer older shoes and movies, not all have been upgraded, and the picture is suspect — quite a bit of pixelization. That being said, it’s not really the TV’s fault, and the picture quality is great overall.

Fun movie — Bad Arrow Video release
on May 2, 2020
Posted by: MermaidFan
Verified Purchase:Yes
This review is absolutely no reflection on the movie itself, which I enjoy, but for the producer of this Blu-Ray package (Arrow Video)
This is the second Blu-Ray I’ve purchase from this company (Arrow Video, located in the UK). This movie (like the other that I purchased through Amazon) will not play in the United States, despite being advertised as Region A. Either the manufacturer is run by idiots, or this never should have been sold in North America — and advertised as such. “Does not meet the requirements” is the error message I get no matter the device (4K Blu-Ray player, or Blu-Ray player). Really disappointing.

Underrated old school comedy
on April 25, 2020
Posted by: MermaidFan
Verified Purchase:Yes
So many of these classic comedies get overlooked— don’t miss this one. Some dark humor in spots, but so many great gags. Fred MacMurray is hilarious.

Unrated? Where?
on January 6, 2020
Posted by: MermaidFan
Verified Purchase:Yes
I enjoyed this movie, and had the Unrated DVD for years. I updated to Blu-Ray, hoping to have the same Theatrical and Unrated movie. Uhmmm... where is the Unrated version. You have the option of choosing which version of the film you want to watch, I generally always choose the Unrated version, as 9 x out of 10, they are better. When it got to the sequence in London where the Wolfman is rampaging through the streets one scene is missing from this so-called Unrated version (where is the ballroom sequence with the Opera singer?). I bounced back over to the Theatrical cut, thinking maybe they screwed up the Menu options — as would be expected that scene is not in the original cut; but it is supposed to be in the Unrated version. Very POd this scene is missing. Somebody screwed up somewhere when this 2-disc set was made. If you’re looking for the complete Unrated version, this isn’t it.

Awesome animated series
on June 14, 2019
Posted by: MermaidFan
Verified Purchase:Yes
As a kid of the 60s and 70s, I grew up on Jonny Quest. It’s still one of my favorites and unlike all the modern cartoons geared toward the overly-sensitive, it’s still amazing to see a cartoon that doesn’t shy away from killing the bad guys. It’s like James Bond for kids — very much influenced by the Atomic Age and Cold War, and it’s nice to see it on Blu-Ray.

Fun movie from Dramworks and Aardman, and looks great in 4K. Voice acting is top notch and matches the animation perfectly.

Lesser of the first 3 Transformers

This is my least favorite of the first 3 Transformers, but still a fun popcorn movie. Picture and sound are top notch, of course; and really great in 4K

Batman at his best
on June 11, 2019
Posted by: MermaidFan
from Wisconsin
Verified Purchase:Yes
As the first of the big-screen Batman movies, it's still one of the best. And now in 4K the picture and sound are pretty incredible. Not as "realistic" as the Nolan films, but still a lot of fun.

Cute movie, excellent 4K
on June 11, 2019
Posted by: MermaidFan
from Wisconsin
Verified Purchase:Yes
Cute movie, a bit long, but nice wrap up to the HTTYD franchise. The picture and sound quality are top-notch, and what you'd expect for 4K. My only real complaint is where was T.J. Miller when this movie was made? They finally give the twins some screen time and one of the main cast members isn't there -- a bit disappointing, though the guy who filled in did a decent job of mimicking Miller.
