Bought this as a gift for my brother in law who was using a 10 year old tv that had black lines on the sides that appeared one year after he bought it. This tv was great. Easy to set up (including the Smart TV apps) and the picture is fantastic.

Classic movie finally on Blu ray

If you're a big fan of director Michael Mann and you haven't seen this flick, you are missing out. Beautiful cinematography, great story, solid acting all around, ahead-of-its-time music, and some stylish action sequences. It's a great Mann flick featuring one of James Caan's best performances, don't miss out. Hard to beat an ending as great as this one

I grew up watching this film and this is still arguably Tom Hanks' best comedic role

Better than people think...

While the cast and director would suggest one of the best films of the past decade, this definitely isn't it. Don't get me wrong, I do like this movie quite a bit. Michael Fassbender acts his heart out here and that makes it worth watching alone. Add to that a fantastic (and oddly comical) Javier Bardem coupled with a handful of impressive set pieces and I am in. Cameron Diaz is really the only low point for me here, but I feel for most people you have be familiar with Cormac McCarthy's writing as well.

Exceeds High Expectations...One of the Best
on September 4, 2015

Absolutely loved this movie. It's the closest any film has ever come to being non-stop action. While that may turn some people away, it's good to know that even though there is so much action in this movie, it does not slight on character. The story isn't much, but is more than enough to propel this movie forward. I love visual storytelling and this is the absolute best example of that. You get to know the characters and their motivations by what they do, not by them simply telling you everything. Director George Miller literally drops you into this world and doesn't take the time to explain a single thing (also brilliant) and just brings you into this experience, letting it wash over you.
While Max may not be the real star of the film, he is terrific in the role and does the original trilogy justice in portraying him as a tortured man, obviously reeling from the death of his family, as well as many others he could not save. Charlize Theron gives my favorite performance of hers in what will be up there as the best of feminine heroines like Ripley from the Alien series. This is really Furiosa's story, but her and Max's mostly unspoken bond & respect is a real highlight of the film. It comes through in their actions based on each side out of the necessity in order to survive.
When I think about the Mad Max series, I think about the finale of the Road Warrior and how I had never seen anything like it before. This entire film feels like that. It's intense, daring, and has a lot of weight to it because of the lack of CGI. I also have to give a shout out to the music in this film because I feel it's difficult to effectively score an action film. However, Junkie XL really knows how to keep the blood pumping throughout. He's does a great job with the loud, bumping action beats -- as well as the more tender and quiet moments. Fury Road is one of those movies I will never get tired of watching. I would love to see Miller & Tom Hardy come back for a couple more movies because I love this world and I love these crazy characters....but I honestly don't know how they could top this. Easily the best film of the year, and one of my favorites of all time.
