An interesting sleeper

Verified Purchase:Yes
There aren't many Bryan Cranston films not worth a look. The actor can almost always elevate all but the worst material with his presence, but thankfully this is not one of them. An interesting thriller, that never really found an audience during a poorly promoted big-screen outing, it's definitely worth taking a look on home video.

Extras make it worth picking up

There have been plenty of re-releases of King Kong, but this one in particular is worth picking up, notably because of the wealth of special features. Peter Jackson's production diaries alone are well worth the purchase.

One of the best films of 2016

An intelligent and well-told story about the African-American women behind the US space program, it's one of the rare films that plays equally well on the small screen. Definitely worth a look.

From Best Buy Customer Support: “Please be advised that only a maximum of 8 reviews will be credited per calendar year (a total of 200 points).” So as long as they keep insisting on sending me e-mails asking me to write reviews I won’t get points for, I’ll keep posting this.

A big burning ball of fun

Verified Purchase:Yes
With the glut of cookie-cutter superhero films on the market, it's refreshing to see something like Deadpool, which doesn't take itself seriously in the least. A well deserved skewering of the comic book genre, which unfortunately will now spawn a host of less successful imitators.

The release collects every episode from the debut season of Mr. Robot, the USA Network original series that stars Rami Malek as a depressed computer programmer suffering from social anxiety, who is recruited by an anarchistic organization attempting to bring down the U.S. banking industry. Christian Slater and Portia Doubleday co-star.

A timely little sleeper of a series

Verified Purchase:Yes
I gave this series a miss during its initial go-round and I'm sorry i did. It's a beautifully constructed series, with an amazing lead actor and a storyline that couldn't be more timely. With season two looming, it's definitely worth taking a look at this DVD set to see how it all started.

This is not Sandra's finest hour

Verified Purchase:Yes
Quite honestly, I would watch Sandra Bullock in almost anything, but she does make it hard sometimes. This is a mess of a movie, and while Bullock almost never turns in a bad performance, she's really pushing it here. Probably worth a miss.

Less than three months after its theatrical debut, Elektra flies to DVD in this widescreen edition from 20th Century Fox. Also available in a pan-and-scan edition, the film comes with an anamorphic 2.35:1 widescreen transfer and a 5.1 Dolby Surround track, both clear and dynamic, with a sharp picture and a loud, booming soundtrack. Since the film virtually died at the box office, it's not surprising that the disc is packed with extras that are virtually carried straight over from most of the promotion found on the Internet before its release. There's a 12-minute making-of along with a slew of "Inside the Editing Room" featurettes with director Rob Bowman explaining the editing process of some of the more complicated sequences. Add in an appearance by Jennifer Garner at a comic convention, plus the teaser and theatrical trailer, and you basically have footage that you might have seen before somewhere else. Probably the biggest hyped extra comes in the form of the deleted Ben Affleck scene in which Matt Murdock visits Elektra in a dream sequence and tells her that he'll always be there to wait for her, though it remains to be seen if the fans will after this movie. Missing is Marvel's usual featurette on the comic character, though one shouldn't be surprised considering the multiple obnoxious tie-ins from The Family Guy and American Dad TV series along with a cheesy commercial for the Elektra soundtrack packing the rest of the disc.

Before the Netflix series, there was Elektra

Jennifer Garner as the Daredevil anti-heroine? Hard to believe in the wake of the amazing Netflix TV series. This is an interesting novelty, but only for die-hard fans.

Two Hercules films released back to back and neither worth our time. This is the worse of the two and not worth your time at all. Donate your DVD money to charity and you'll feel happier.

Utterly forgettable CG-fest

Verified Purchase:Yes
Sad to admit, I've watched I, Frankenstein twice, and I still can't figure out what it's about. I think there is an interesting story buried in there somewhere, but I'll be darned if I can find it. There's just too much sub-par digital fury signifying absolutely nothing.
