A classic thriller, looking its best
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
Thank goodness for the recent 4K rerelease of several Hitchcock films. With Psycho in particular, it's never looked as good, so if you're a Hitchcock fan, you owe it to yourself to buy this one.

Todd Hewitt (Tom Holland) grew up in a dystopia where a pestilence eradicated all females-and left the males subject to Inchthe Noise,Inch an unceasing telepathic cacophony of one another's thoughts. Drawn to an unusual patch of quietude, he discovered it stemmed from crash-landed woman Viola Eade (Daisy Ridley)-and he'd have a fight for their survival, and to learn the truth about his society. Doug Liman's take on the Patrick Ness YA fiction co-stars Mads Mikkelsen, Demi~n Bichir, Nick Jonas. 109 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Okay, but could have been better.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Somewhere buried deep is the nugget of a decent idea, but Chaos Walking never entirely pulls it off. Fortunately, the performances of the two leads help elevate it to a reasonable level.

A pretty decent remake
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
It doesn't matter if you've seen the original, this remake is a lot of fun, in a mindless, leave-your-brain-at-the-door kind of way. A lot to enjoy, but a bit mindless, so if you like big-screen escapism, it's definitely worth the money.

![The Courier - BLU-RAY [Standard]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/27e4d5b1-b593-4c11-91d9-6fd30e19a9be.jpg)
In 1960, British machine parts salesman Greville Wynne (Benedict Cumberbatch) was approached by MI6 and the CIA to be an international contact for Oleg Penkovsky (Merab Ninidze), a GRU officer wary of the Khrushchev regime's excesses. While the relationship provided America with intel critical to staving off the Cuban Missile Crisis, their perilous dealings would ultimately saddle both with a price. True espionage tale co-stars Rachel Brosnahan, Jessie Buckley, Angus Wright. 112 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

An overlooked film
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the many unfortunate casualties of the pandemic, The Courier deserves another look on home video. A terrific story, with a great performance by Benedict Cumberbatch, you should definitely track it down.

Another James Gunn bit of fun
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
James Gunn is an acquire taste; either you love his work, or you probably hate it. Fortunately, this belongs in the former. It would probably help if you were at least peripherally of the DC comic book universe to fully enjoy it, but it will have to do until Guardians of the Galaxy 3 comes along.

An uncomfortable classic
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
The problem with Clockwork Orange is it's an amazing-looking piece of work, but you want to turn away from it a lot. Kubrick's film makes you want to squirm in your seat, and it is still as amazing and creepy as it was half a century ago.

Still a classic
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
Forget the Tim Burton with a creepy Johnny Depp, this is still the one you want to watch. Happily, it's not dated too badly, and you will want to listen to the commentary track with the former kids, including how the girls used to fight over Charlie!

40 years ago, five youths on a weekend getaway in the Texas countryside fell prey to a butcher in a mask made of human skin and his cannibalistic family, and horror cinema would never be the same. Violent, confrontational, and shockingly realistic, director Tobe Hooper's THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE terrified audiences in a way never thought possible when it was unleashed on a politically and socially tumultuous America in 1974. Facing a storm of controversy, censorship, and outcry throughout it's troubled , this masterpiece of horror has stood the test of time to become a landmark motion picture and cultural milestone.

A horror classic gets a better looking package
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not sure how I feel about this film. Granted, it's considered a horror masterpiece, but it's ugly and mean-spirited. To be honest, I bought this release for the commentary tracks, but I'm not I want to watch it again any time soon.

A modern-day masterpiece
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
Without a doubt, one of my all-time favorite films. This package gives the theatrical as well as the 'bootleg' cut, but trust me, you will want to watch the latter. Absolutely stunning in 4K and where else will you get a DVD commentary from the director's mom?

A glowing adaptation
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: JoeN
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's not quite the same as seeing it on a big screen, but if you haven't seen Dune, you must make an effort. One of the best-looking films of the year, I can't wait for the sequel.
