Has all the features that were present in the original DVD release. Something odd with the audio track, though: a slightly different running monologue for Turkish (Jason Statham) is present in the first half of the movie, with Statham taking the same to pronounce his t's, which, if you've seen the original cut of the film, you'll know his accent tends to force out. As a result, it tends to pull out longtime viewers from the experience. One wonders why it was done at all, since the alterations to the monologue are present for only the first half (and maybe not even that much). It's almost as if they decided it wasn't worth the effort to finish.

This franchise suffered for a while, but once Bryan Singer became involved again (on X-Men: First Class), the quality of the franchise jumped back up to what X2 was.
As far as the features go, it shares the same issues as a lot of recent big releases in that there's a few, but they're kinda thin, with respect to how much there is in each feature. Something of a worrisome trend.
This release contains every episode from the debut season of the superhero series Arrow, a modern reinterpretation of the classic DC character The Green Arrow.

This season surpasses in every way the amazingly ambitious first season and sets the stage for an even more jawdropping third season. Continues to be one of the best shows on TV. Content-wise, this set delivers. It even includes a handy bonus "episode" which encapsulates all of the first season in a 42 minute refresher.
It is 1715. Pirates rule the Caribbean and have established a lawless pirate republic. Among these outlaws is a fearsome young captain named Edward Kenway. His exploits earn the respect of pirate legends like Blackbeard, but draw him into an ancient war that may destroy everything the pirates have built.

Assassin's Creed games are almost always amazing (I'm looking at you, Liberation), but this one takes it to another level. It expands on the sailing portion first seen in ACIII, and gives us a fun protagonist again in Edward Kenway, who is more akin to the likable scalping, Ezio Auditore than the prickly hero of ACIII, Connor Kenway.
From the Marvel Universe come the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., ready to defend the citizens of the world. In the aftermath of the battle between invading aliens and the Earth's mightiest heroes, the Avengers, the special law-enforcement agency S.H.I.E.L.D. begins to intensively recruit new agents to investigate bizarre events and superhuman sightings. Led by Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg), this mismatched team of super spies, geeky scientists, sneaky con artists and regular Joes with extraordinary gifts will have to come together as the first line of defense against the evil forces who seek to corrupt and destroy.

For the show itself, it's as solid as the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) movies. The special features are fun, too, although interviews with the actors and perhaps even a roundtable would've elevated it further. My one complaint is that there is no Digital Copy included with this unlike most releases these days (perhaps it's a Disney thing).

As for the movie itself, at 2 hours, 41 minutes running time, it's a tad long, but replacing LaBeouf with Wahlberg is a smart move in changing the style of the franchise.
As for the set itself, a few more extras would be nice (always felt it odd that there are no character profile featurettes on these discs), but the ones that are here are fun.
At this point, it's kinda obvious as to how this review's gonna go. For the movie itself, it's fantastic and is a vast improvement over its predecessor, which tended to drag in parts. The rest of the set, however.....there's not much here to criticize, and that's the problem. Seems as if they hold back all the supplementals for the now-obligatory Extended Editions. The DVDs for Lord of the Rings did not have this problem. What gives, WB?!

There's a reason this movie did so well at the box office!! Performances aside (which are fantastic), the sheer scope of this movie is amazing, and ups the stakes for anyone trying a special-effects-heavy movie in the future. Cuaron is a truly gifted filmmaker, having impressed the world over with his contribution to the Harry Potter saga and the hauntingly powerful Children of Men. The movie keeps things moving at a brisk pace and doesn't overload the story with extraneous backstory; the viewer is given just enough to be able to relate to the characters. Features-wise, this set truly puts most others to shame with the breadth and scope of the features included. Sadly, I haven't been able to view this in 3D, yet. Amazing set.
