I understand that this is not Planet Earth so don't worry, I wasn't expecting that when I bought this. For me, the best BBC documentary show is Life, then comes Planet Earth, then Human Planet. I was hoping this show would be on the same level as them but it wasn't. There are good episodes but all the great moments can make up one episode which makes the entire series feel worthless. It does inform you and educate you on how predators attack their prey but it felt lacking of something.
This extensive release includes all six films in the science fiction juggernaut Star Wars franchise: Star Wars (aka Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope), The Empire Strikes Back (aka Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back), Return of the Jedi (aka Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi), Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, and Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith.
As i said for the summary, I am a fan of all six films. Yes, that includes the supposedly much hated prequels. I don't mind them because I see them as great films. The original trilogy is great and the prequels are great. The Empire Strikes Back and Attack of the Clones are my two favorite films within the saga; Empire being my favorite one. Each blu-ray upgrade is amazing and well done. Note: These films are the remastered editions of Star Wars. So yes, this set includes the now infamous head-jerk Han Solo does when Greedo shoots him..first. The Sarlacc pit has become a sort of plant monster so be ready for disappointments and improvements, fanboys. This is a great set though. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
This release contains all 10 episodes of season 2 of Fargo, the anthology series inspired by the 1996 Coen brothers film. Season 2 focuses on a young state police officer and Vietnam veteran in 1979 South Dakota and Minnesota.
This season is way better than the first season. The first season is still great but this was a mass improvement in every way. The DVD quality is good. Can't expect much from a DVD but it's still good.
A drifter named Malvo (Billy Bob Thornton) brings trouble to small-town Minnesota and influences insurance salesman Lester Nygaard (Martin Freeman) into murder. Meanwhile, a pair of local police officers are trying to piece together a series of murders which they believe is connected to Malvo and Nygaard.
The first season of Fargo is really great. May I add, however, I am not a fan of the film Fargo so I wasn't expecting much from this show. This show was way better than the film. I really enjoyed it. The DVD quality is OK for a DVD. I'm sure the blu-ray is better but the DVD is well alternative.

I only bought this to buy digital games on my Nintendo 3DS. The games were good and I usually prefer to buy these online cards than giving any information out.

The game is great. It has amazing graphics and a unique story with unique lore. By now, most gamers know this game. It is hard if you don't know what you're getting yourself into. It is not a hack-and-slash game. This game requires patience and calmness.
Mel Gibson does an amazing job bringing the life of a war hero to the big screen. The entire film works, overall. The blu-ray is amazing, with high grade visuals and audio. The features are very cool; there is a documentary on the disc that informs you more of the main hero. Highly recommended.
The film itself is good because it keeps you entertained with stylistic and amazing fight choreography. There were a couple of scenes that I felt slowed the film down but only because I was expecting something and got another thing. The blu-ray upgrade is amazing. There are a good amount of features that inform the viewer of behind the scenes of how the film was made. Recommended.
This Emmy-nominated dramatization of the 1994-95 Los Angeles murder trial that rocked the nation retells the story of how prosecutors Christopher Darden (Sterling K. Brown) and Marcia Clark (Sarah Paulson) sought justice for victims Nicole Brown-Simpson and Ron Goldman, against an all-star defense team of Johnnie Cochran (Courtney B. Vance), F. Lee Bailey (Nathan Lane), Robert Shapiro (John Travolta) and Robert Kardashian (David Schwimmer) seeking exoneration for accused perpetrator O.J. Simpson (Cuba Gooding, Jr.).
The show itself is well-written and well acted. Each episode offers insight into the media obsessed trial of O.J. Simpson. I found myself being surprised at how much I thought I knew and how much I was being taught. The blu-ray itself is also good. The video and audio quality is excellent. The only problem is the lack of special features; if the features don't matter to you, then it is minor.
