I spent almost an entire week trying to get my hands on one of these blu-rays spanning several trips to several Best Buy’s and tens of miles, however I am happy to say that this film was well worth the wait. This film brings so much raw emotion and pure artistic integrity to an already amazing concept. Director Denis Villenueve will be a mainstay in the history of great directors and I can’t wait to see his later work. And it probably doesn’t hurt that is a quality made Blu-ray product.

A classic for a reason! This movie deserves its best picture nomination with its unrivaled script and characters. And it was only Quentin Tarantino’s second movie. This movie helps set up how amazing his filmography will be. And a great Blu-ray and digital transfer to top the purchase off!
A thumping pop/rock soundtrack propels writer/director Edgar Wright's stylish blend of action and comedy. Baby (Ansel Elgort) is a skilled professional getaway driver who uses music to drown out the ringing in his ears caused by a car accident when he was a kid. After he falls for a beautiful waitress (Lily James), Baby wants to give up his dangerous vocation, a decision that does not sit well with the crime boss (Kevin Spacey) he works for. Jon Hamm, Jamie Foxx, Jon Bernthal also star. 113 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

A great Blu-Ray to compliment a relentlessly entertaining movie. Edgar Wright once again proves his right in the hall of fame for modern filmmakers with an entertaining, perfectly edited, directed, and written crime action thriller. I can’t wait to see more.
Christopher Nolan's groundbreaking Dark Knight Trilogy is featured in this special edition release. Nolan's dark, gritty portrayal of Bruce Wayne's transition into Batman and his struggles as Gotham's superhero set the precedent for modern superhero films. With minimal usage of CGI and a focus on character driven narratives, the three Christian Bale-led films were both critical and box office successes. The three entries - Batman Begins (2005), The Dark Knight (2008), and The Dark Knight Rises (2012) - are included in this collector's edition, as well as commentary and behind the scenes bonus content.
