So my dumb behind did not open this when I first got it. After a month of having it I decided to watch it. When I opened the case there was no disc. And now its too late to return. $10 down the drain

Not bad.

3.5 stars. I always kept hearing how awesome this movie was but thought it was okay. Why did I buy it...it was a $7 blind buy. Vince Vaughns charcter is just not convincing. I'm so used to him being in comedies. So him trying to be serious and yelling at other soldiers just made me chuckle. It looked like he was really trying.

Really Good Blind Buy
on December 18, 2020
Posted by: tommyboy81
Verified Purchase:Yes
It was $10 and I wanted something that had really good surround sound and I kept hearing about this. I actually really liked this movie, and got into the characters. And of course the sound a booming.
Bought this with Hacksaw Ridge and prefer this.

It works
on October 22, 2020
Posted by: tommyboy81
Verified Purchase:Yes
Does what its supposed to do and its still working months later. So for the price you can't beat it. I do wish the cord was a little longer because the height of my iMac to the desk is higher than this. I would have liked the main part resting on the desk instead of hanging off the plug-in

Keep the bass loud and your neighbors happy with this SVS subwoofer isolation system. This set's four feet decouple the subwoofer from the floor resulting in less room rattling.

Good Add-On

A nice add-on to your sub if you're needing to prevent floor(wooden) and wall vibration, which can hinder how you're hearing the sub. It is a little ugly, but it does it's job.

Gets better over the years
on March 30, 2020
Posted by: tommyboy81
Verified Purchase:Yes
this is one of those movies for me when I first saw it I thought it was just alright. But over the years you try it here and there, watching clips, and realize its a lot better than you thought. Denzels performance is really good. Not quite on par with Training Day in which I thought he was awesome in.

Roger Deakins does it again with his Cinematography work. As far as the movie, little better than Dunkirk. Still really enjoyed it

Enjoy brilliant color and sound with this Panasonic Ultra HD Blu-ray player. The chroma processing technology maximizes the color of 4K/HDR content, and the 7.1-channel audio output produces lifelike surround sound when connected to a home audio system. The color signals received by this Panasonic Ultra HD Blu-ray player are upgraded to produce natural textures and depth.
 

Does this player switch automatically to Dolby Vision when a movie contains that format? Or do you have manually switch to that like the Sony 700?

Yes. It does automatically play the movie in Dolby Vision if the movie supports it, as long as you have DV set to "ON" in the player setup menu. You can not switch between HDR and DV on the fly when watching a movie which stinks. DV takes priority over HDR on the player. You don't have to go into the menu to switch itto "OFF" if you're playing a non DV disc.

I am wanting to get a stand alone 4k player and saw this model and the DP-UB900, what are the main differences between this and the 900? Is it better to buy the 900 over the 820 or vice versa? Thanks in advance.

Dolby Vision. I believe thats it. Not sure if the 900 has HDR Optimizer but as far as I know its Dolby Vision. And from what I understand, Panasonic is not updating the 900 with DV

Will this player upscale both Blu-ray and regular DVD movies to 4K?

DVD's I'm not sure, I haven't tried it yet. Blu-ray's, yes it does. There's an option in Advance Settings to turn on SDR/HDR Conversion

Is the Dolby Vision on this tv only compatible with certain TV's I have a vizio p series now and am looking to Add an LG B8 or C8. Will it work with these?

it should work with the Vizio. It definitely works on the LGs

Does the version of Dolby Vision that was just released include support for Sony TV's, just as the Z9D? Thank you.

It should. It does work on my Z9F and also the Sony A9F tvs. You'll just have to go into settings from main menu and make sure DV is set to "On" when you want to use it. And Deep Color at Auto 12bit
