Satisfying ending to the saga!
on May 16, 2020
Posted by: Snake
Verified Purchase:Yes
Despite some bad reviews about this final chapter(?), The Rise Of Skywalker, ended in a great way, from my point of view. I don't think they could come up with a better way to end this trilogy and the conclusion of the SW saga. I really enjoyed it from beginning to end, the FX (great as always), excellent actors performance, the cameos and the new characters. I've been a big Star Wars fan for over 40 years so, I can say I completely satisfied and it's good enough for me. I definitely recommend it if you started the journey since the beginning and the Force be with You!

Great Sequel, better than the original movie!

IT Chapter 2 is a really great sequel, something that doesn’t always work since a lot of sequels I had seen are pretty bad. IT Chapter 2 is one of those rare exceptions. I really enjoyed the casting which in many cases there are eerie similarities between the kids and their adult-selves that you can find out really quick who's adult version of every kid, well done, I really love it!!!

This movie is full of twists and turns, a gamut of emotions, I laughed, was stunned, and yep, cried a little bit. I'll keep this review simple, why?...because it's a great movie worth to watch and I don't want to spoil you if you hadn't see it yet.

While serving detention, four teens discover a 16-bit video game called Jumanji in their school's basement. Transported inside the game's jungle world, the kids are each assigned an avatar-a muscle-bound explorer (Dwayne Johnson), a pudgy cartographer (Jack Black), a diminutive zoologist (Kevin Hart), and a beautiful martial artist (Karen Gillan)-and must survive a series of dangerous adventures in order to get back to the real world. Exciting follow-up to the 1995 hit also stars Nick Jonas, Bobby Cannavale. 119 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Probably funniest movie I've seen in a long time!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Seriously, this is a funny and engaging movie that will have you laughing the whole way through. Having Dwayne Johnson (The Rock), Jack Black and Kevin Hart together is hilarious, you will have a lot of fun, no matter your age and whether you really love the original, which doesn't takes anything away from the original Robin Williams version, it's a different movie based on the same Jumanji board game with a twist. Perfect for a family movie night. I highly recommend it!

When she actually does, she's invited to join the team. As Agent M, she's paired with maverick veteran Agent H (Chris Hemsworth) on a mission involving extraterrestrial attacks and a possible mole inside the MIB.

No Bad, Not So Good...
on December 8, 2019
Posted by: Snake
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was very excited to watch this movie because the MIB franchise is been so good but unfortunately this one wasn't, I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it. I really liked Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson together in this movie (two of my favorite actors) and I think it's good to see some new faces on these roles from classic movies we've grown to love (something that not everyone accepts), also consider that this one is not a remake, neither a sequel, just another story in MIB universe, now why my not so good rating about this movie is because the weak on the storyline, didn't get me the "wow" feeling as the previous ones, it seems to me that this movie relied on all the cool graphics and special effects to distract the audience from it. Overall, it's entertaining.

It's just Great!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I really enjoyed this movie from start to finish, the visuals are stunning, story is great and Rosa Salazar's performance from body to expressions are captured at the best, her acting is solid. It was done right!
Honestly I didn't know anything about Alita before the movie (never been a fan of manga) and as other movies that I found later they were based on video games or comics characters, this just caught my attention when I saw the trailer for the first time. This is probably my favorite movie so far this year, I hope there will be a sequel.

Just Excellent!

Being the last statement of Star Wars saga (besides the one coming up soon) I had never been disappointed, it is a great movie with great actors, packed with action and awesome fx (as always).
I do really love this movie despite it being probably the most disliked Star Wars movie to date which I don't understand because most of the bad comments about this movie I read, are with no fundament or explanation why they didn't like it, anyway, I'm a SW fan and if you are too, I will recommend it.
Waiting for the next chapter.

Finally got this movie!!!

Verified Purchase:Yes
What a classic!
Big fan of Mel Brooks and this one is probably my favorite. I laughed so much and loved this movie when it came to theaters in 80's, that I watched three times in a row.
"History Of The World, Part I", which never had a part 2 and it was never planned (how hilariously Mel could be), is a comedy movie that you must have a fair knowledge of history and I mean World History, the Beginning, Greek and Roman civilizations, the Old Testament, Jesus Christ and stuff like that in order for you to understand the humor, which is really very clever, or you won't get it if you don't know what it's referring to.
I'm so happy I finally got this DVD that I've been looking for ever.
At the moment of this review, I'm getting ready to unpack and watch this movie that I know it will bring back some great memories!!!

Good movie for a great price!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am a BIG Fan of the "Terminator" Saga and I was surprised that this movie actually existed, probably due to some bad reviews from critics and moviegoers as well. I've been watching all the T movies recently to be ready for "T: Dark Fate" and in my recent visit to BB found this gem for a great, great price so, I got it! my T collection is complete (for now).
I really enjoyed the movie, the time jump twists and the reset of the Future are great adding that "what if..." moment that we all wonder ourselves over events in history. Anyway, if you are a "Terminator" fan, there's no reason why "T: Genisys" shouldn't be in your library.

Good Scares, Good addition to the Conjuring saga.

Really good movie with well creepy scary moments and suspense. I like the showing of the other artifacts and relics inside the Warrens horror locked-room and with Patrick Wilson (Ed) and Vera Farmiga (Lorraine) returning as main characters makes this movie entertaining and very enjoyable. I gave 4 stars (4.5 most likely) because I feel that there is something missing on this one...or I just need to watch it again probably. Overall it worth watch and add it to my Conjuring Universe Collection.

Excellent 4K/HDR Pass-Through HDMI Switch!
By Snake
Hardly needed a solution to hook up my Apple TV4K streamer and my 4K Ultra-UHD Sony Blu-ray player to my new JBL 9.1 ATMOS Sound bar system which I love but unfortunately it comes with only one HDMI input and my tv lacks the eARC capability, so after trying a couple cheaper models, I found this Insignia HDMI switch and it really does the job. It's a plug 'n play device so it was really easy to connect it to my Soundbar. Perfectly transfer 4K HDR and Dolby Vision video signals to my TV through my Soundbar and I can enjoy Dolby ATMOS and DTH:X multichannel audio from both players. Doesn't come with a remote, which personally I don't find necessary because I have to reach my TV stand when I want to play a movie on my Blue-ray player then I change the input right after I'm done and it stays switched to the last selection (I usually keep it switched to my Apple 4KTV).
No "Handshake" issues at all, but *NOTE* that it takes a couple seconds to the AV system and TV to receive signals when you change inputs, something pretty normal according to my researches.
Cons: None at the moment.
I've been using it every day in over a month without a problem.

**UPDATE: Handshake issues with JBL 9.1 ATMOS S.B.
January 28, 2021
Ok so, this is an update to my previous review. The Ingsinia 3-port HDMI Switch did work with no issues for the first couple months that I used it to hook up my APTV4K and my Sony UBP-X-700 4K Blue-ray player to my JBL 9.1 ATMOS Sound bar.
Now I want to clarify that I don't think this is an issue with the switch itself, I think this is a problem with JBL 9.1 ATMOS soundbar, after I started experiencing Handshake issues between the APTV4K and my 4K Blue-ray palyer sonnected to the sound bar through the switch, I tested the switch connected to a one of the 4K HDMI ports in my Sony X900F tv for a week or so and I didn't have any handshake problems betweek both media players, the TV recognized the device that was on, either the APTV4K or the Blue-ray player and it work perfectly, unfortunately this didn't help me because I couldn't get the ATMOS sound effects, main reason why I got the soundbar.
I did a lot of research trying to find some information about it, before I returned the Switch, but it seems that nobody have used it the with the JBL 9.1 ATMOS bar so, any input will be appreciated, otherwise "JLB 9.1 ATMOS Soundbar Owners, be advise that it won't work properly."

Upgrade your home theater with this JBL BAR 9.1-channel soundbar system. The powerful 820W output offers an immersive movie and music experience, while Bluetooth, Airplay 2 and Chromecast connectivity lets you stream audio smoothly. This JBL BAR 9.1-channel soundbar system has detachable speakers with rechargeable batteries for flexible placement, and Dolby Atmos technology delivers quality surround sound.
 

Can the JBL 9.1 be directly connected to the back of an Apple 4K TV box and will that setup allow for Dolby Atmos to be decoced?

Absolutely! That's how I have my set up: Apple TV 4K to the HDMI IN of the JBL 9.1 and HDMI Out from the JBL 9.1 to the ARC/eARC HDMI IN of your TV.
Don't forget that you have to change the audio format to Dolby ATMOS on the Apple TV 4K. I hope this help.

Would like the rear speakers in the rear of my room . i Know they have a charging port what voltage cubes chargers to plug into Them do i need. Will rapid phone chargers work or should it be the slow charger. Or what charger would you Recommend THANK YOU

A Fast Charger will work but you don't really need that, any standard charger block will supply enough power. I'm using a couple of extra standard iPhone blocks and they keeps my rear surround speakers charged all the time.
