This is the first 4K player I've ever owned, so I don't have any other experience with 4K players to compare it with. I'll just say it has always worked well for me, with no glitches or technical problems, in the time since I purchased it. I don't use the Wi-Fi functionality on it, though.

I should start by saying I'm a lifelong Kubrick devotee of the highest order, and I don't think he's ever made a truly poor film. However, I'll give one caveat: "The Shining" isn't nearly his best film. I hadn't seen it in years, but I purchased the 4K disc because I'm a Kubrick collector. Viewing it, the film still isn't as great as his other works, and much of it doesn't hold up. However, the 4K presentation looks beautiful.
The film that started the "summer blockbuster" trend, director Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Peter Benchley's novel is a masterpiece of action and suspense. The New England resort town Amity Island is terrorized by a man (and woman)-eating great white shark, and it's up to the local police chief (Roy Scheider), a marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss), and a grizzled shark hunter (Robert Shaw) to stop the feeding frenzy. With Lorraine Gary, Murray Hamilton; features a classic score by John Williams. 124 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks English Dolby Atmos, DTS HD 7.1 Master Audio, DTS Surround mono, French DTS HD High Resolution Audio 7.1, DTS 5.1, Spanish DTS 5.1; Subtitles English (SDH), French, Spanish; featurettes; deleted scenes; outtakes; storyboards; photo gallery; theatrical trailer; 44-page booklet.

I don't need to tell you how brilliant and terrifying "Jaws" is, so I won't review the film itself -- other than to say that I wish Spielberg would cease making the big-budget junk he makes now, and just go back to making these lower-budget films. I WILL say that the film is truly beautiful and crystal-clear to view in this 4K presentation. Definitely worth your dollars.

I don't need to review the film itself, because if you've seen it as many countless times as I have you know it's a classic and that Kubrick was a genius. I only need to tell you that the brilliance and experience of viewing the film is light-years more awe-inspiring and jaw-dropping by viewing it in 4K. This is a very worthwhile purchase.

The sound quality of these Bose desktop speakers is very vastly superior to the much weaker quality Insignia desktop speakers I used to use. I'm an audio snob, and these are a much better match for the acoustics in my old apartment's living room, which has higher ceilings. Much better depth.

This is the second pair of these headphones that I've owned. They're of fine quality, with fairly decent sound for the price. I prefer over-the-ear headphones than earbuds, anyway.
Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it~s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna~s standard range. When it~s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV~s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs~take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

A few years ago, I decided to become a "cord cutter" and get rid of my cable subscription, and go with an antenna instead. I was paying way too much money for a cable package to get at least the channels I wanted, yet there were still too many channels I wasn't watching so I was wasting a lot of money. I tried a few antennas that were pitiful and didn't give even minimally good quality results. I researched further and discovered the Mohu brand. WOW, this is THE only brand to buy an antenna from. It's an HD digital antenna. Mohu is the consumer brand of a company that makes high-grade antennas for the military, so the technology and quality are clearly second to none. I've never had a bit of disappointment from using this antenna, and the quality and clarity of the signals it picks up (and number of channels) are astounding. Of course, that depends on the geography of your area, how far you live from towers, weather conditions, etc., but overall I just will never buy HD antennas from any company but Mohu. They're that good.

Even though no sequel will of course ever beat or improve upon Ridley Scott's seminal, groundbreaking, and influential sci-fi masterpiece original "Blade Runner," this one at least tries very well and for the most part succeeds. It certainly has a sumptuous and dynamic visual style, but at every scene I still found myself comparing it to the original film. I'm glad Scott was aboard as a producer and story consultant to help guide the film along under its new director, but...eh, I'm just spoiled when it comes to "Blade Runner." I'll never think anything is better than the original. The running time on this one is exhaustingly long, too. It's still worth checking out if you don't have too much personal favoritism invested for Scott's film.

I vaguely remembered parts of the original "Pete's Dragon", and although it's nostalgic it's pretty silly. This remake wisely avoids the silliness and the singing, and changes the story and location completely. It's an exhilarating, exciting, and heartfelt film that was evidently, truly crafted with love and care. Pete's relationship with Elliott is one for the ages -- two best friends -- and you'll definitely get an emotional lump in your throat more than a few times. The entire cast is excellent, starting with Oakes Fegley as Pete. He's a remarkable young talented actor. I've never cared much for Bryce Dallas Howard before, but I liked her a lot here in her character. And what a treat to have Robert Redford in the film; he's scruffy and warm and wise here. The thrilling action scenes are well balanced by the more intimate, emotional dramatic scenes. I watch it frequently.

Setting all the original Kevin Spacey controversy and the recasting aside, I'll focus on the fact that this is one of Ridley Scott's best films. I'll watch anything he does. Although it seems that lots of dramatic liberties were taken with the true story it's based on, "All the Money in the World" is a terrifically tense, compelling, visually stunning (of course), slow burn of a thriller. Michelle Williams gives perhaps her best performance to date. And of course the great, great Christopher Plummer gives a jaw-droppingly magnificent and brilliant performance in what had to be a whiplash turnaround time. Highly recommended.
