Melancholy, accomplished film gets okay Blu-ray
on January 19, 2015
Posted by: Moviegeek123

Verified Purchase:Yes
Nebraska might be the saddest, most contemplative picture filmmaker Alexander Payne has ever made; it's certainly not for all viewers. Pity the Blu-ray is almost bare-bones (although the AV stats are great).

Gripping true story; nice HD treatment

Verified Purchase:Yes
Paul Greengrass' 2013 docudrama is ridiculously underrated; it might be better than his 2006 thriller United 93, and Tom Hanks gives one of his 3 or 4 best performances. The Blu-ray, too, faithfully serves this story.

A classic summer blockbuster!
on January 19, 2015
Posted by: Moviegeek123

Verified Purchase:Yes
There are few summer blockbusters more engaging than this one; the film just works, even almost twenty years later. The Blu-ray, however, leaves a little to be desired - it's missing special features from Fox's previous "Five-Star" edition.

Terrible movie; great Blu-ray

Verified Purchase:Yes
One of those so-bad-it's-good blockbusters; little in Trans4mers makes sense on a moment-to-moment basis, and the characters are shockingly unsympathetic. That said, the Blu-ray is phenomenal, with excellent AV quality and loads of substantive features.

Great performances in a rough movie
on January 19, 2015
Posted by: Moviegeek123
from Richmond, VA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is such a bleak, raw thriller; if it weren't for the performances of the stellar cast, the film would be too hard to watch. The Blu-ray is a little light on features, but it looks and sounds incredible.

Phenomenal movie; decent Blu-ray

This brutal Western is one of the great films of the 2000s; the Blu-ray itself is just okay (some good features; decent A/V quality).

Fabulous set; Unbelievably good price

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Halloween series is one of horror's most fascinating, frustrating franchises, and this Blu-ray box set gives it the royal treatment. One of the year's best home-media releases.

Wonderful Film; Mediocre Blu-ray
on September 13, 2014
Posted by: Moviegeek123
from Richmond, VA
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Birdcage is one of the funniest movies ever made; outside of the classic Marx Brothers movies, it's rare to find a comedy where all of the main characters jockey successfully for the title of Biggest Scene-Stealer. The Blu-ray, however, is so disappointing - we get a trailer and little else.

Great Film; Great Blu-ray

Verified Purchase:Yes
That Good Will Hunting still holds up is somewhat of a minor miracle. Although Ben Affleck and Matt Damon have moved on to bigger things, their work here isn't just a calling card: it's heartfelt and moving. Robin Williams is particularly good.
