![Jojo Rabbit - 4K Blu-Ray [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/9442d9ed-2c25-4ea5-b003-616861a024d0.jpg)
Writer/director Taika Waititi (director of THOR RAGNAROK and HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE) brings his signature style of humor and pathos to his latest film, JOJO RABBIT, a World War II satire that follows a lonely German boy (Roman Griffin Davis as Jojo) whose world view is turned upside down when he discovers his single mother (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a young Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic. In spite of his idiotic imaginary friend, Adolf Hitler (Waititi), Jojo confronts his blind nationalism.

One of the great entertainments of 2019
on March 20, 2020
Posted by: RBlenheim
Verified Purchase:Yes
The biggest surprise of 2019 seemed to come from some alternate reality of craziness: “Jojo Rabbit”, a World War II comedy that tells of the coming of age of a 10-year-old German boy of the Hitlerjugend whose imaginary playmate is his idol Adolf Hitler (played by the writer/director Taika Waititi). There’s lots of hilarity (some of it priceless in its satirical silliness) but what surprises beyond the wild inventiveness of the storytelling is the underlying serious reality of the horrors of the fascist regime that at unexpectedly moments unearths profound emotional responses in the viewer. Quite frankly, I often found myself laughing one minute and crying the next. The acting is uniformly excellent, especially Sam Rockwell as the one-eyed training camp captain and Scarlett Johansson as the boy’s unfailingly dauntless mother, but it is really Roman Griffin Davis who steals the film as the boy Johannes who earns the disparaging nickname ‘Jojo Rabbit’ when he finds he can’t obey an order from Rockwell to kill a rabbit with his bare hands. Brilliantly edited, it may not be as polished as the usual by a master filmmaker but it more than compensates for it by its inspired creativity and emotional resonance which are the main reasons I love this film as much as any of 2019. Don’t let its wacky title fool you: this is a little gem you won’t easily forget

Best racing film since "Grand Prix"
on February 21, 2020
Posted by: RBlenheim
Verified Purchase:Yes
“Ford V Ferrari” tells the true story of retired American racecar driver Carroll Shelby who is hired by Ford Motor Company to build a car that can defeat the perpetually arrogant Ferrari company at Le Mans, and his enlisting Ken Miles, a hot-tempered British driver, to drive the car. Matt Damon and Christian Bale play Shelby and Miles respectively, and the development of the subsequent events is truly nail-biting, primarily due to director James Mangold who orchestrates both the dramatic and the action scenes to perfection. It is at its best in the two lengthy race sequences: first, the 24-hour at Daytona, and then the 1966 Le Mans 24-hour. During these I felt myself back in 1966 glued to my seat in a Cinerama theater experiencing John Frankenheimer’s "Grand Prix" for the first time. Quite simply, “Ford V Ferrari” is not only one of the year’s most exciting films, it is also the greatest racing film since "Grand Prix". But even if you aren't a fan of car racing, the human story is so interesting and the production so superb that you should not miss seeing this.

Although not a perfect 4K, it's the best version of Gladiator you can buy. What a great film, and it looks great.

Film is 5-star masterpiece -- 4K disappoints.
on December 27, 2019
Posted by: RBlenheim
Verified Purchase:Yes
Better to buy this masterpiece -- maybe the finest fantasy film ever made -- in the Criterion Blu-Ray version. For some unfathomable reason, the 4K omits the 7.1 audio channel (but includes it on the accompanying Blu-ray!). This is inexplicable and stupid.
And it isn't really visually better than the Criterion. Buy that instead!
