those crazy birds

while I was not necessarily a fan of the game, I did like the movie. it was catchy and well done. like the graphics and surprisingly enough, it has a really good robust Dolby ATMOS audio soundtrack! it's great fun for most kids too.

this was a good release, I like the take on the original story and the incredible job done on the visuals is amazing. they did a super job on creating a jungle look. they also have an incredible Dolby ATMOS soundtrack and since I rock 7.1.4, this is amazing!

I got this release for my kid, we both collect steelbooks and we couldn't pass this up. the movie video was great and the standard 1080p blu has a great lossless DTS-HD-MA soundtrack. plus, you get that sweet steelbook to boot!

this movie was great. not sure why I wasn't getting love. I hope it's not because of the all female cast. they were great. the video is good and the audio is really really good if you have a Dolby ATMOS audio system. I have a 7.1.4 and only the UHD version has ATMOS, it sounds amazing! plus, it's in a steelbook case, you just can't go wrong.

perfect for ATMOS/DTS:X speakers
on December 16, 2016
Posted by: Solarrdadd
from Alexandria, VA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I currently cannot do in-ceiling speakers for ATMOS/DTS:X so I chose to use these for on-ceiling mounted speakers and they work incredibly good. I have four mounted on the ceiling in the HT room 7.1.4 and two mounted on the ceiling in the bedroom 5.1.2
these speakers have dual 4.5" drivers and that makes the difference in the quality of the midrange and the level of unstrained volume you can get from these speakers. make sure you understand that they are sold as single speakers and if you needed a pair you must order two.

this is yet another in the star trek rebooted series. this one is more like a great two part episode of the original tv series. it puts fun back into the movies like the tv show. I really enjoyed it. I also really enjoyed the stellar ATMOS soundtrack included with this release, so did my 7.1.4 audio system!

superior video and audio upgrades!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have the original release of this on Blu-ray, and it's great, however, the re-mastering and releasing of this on UHD is on two whole nother levels! I have a 7.1.4 audio system and the ATMOS mix of this release really makes the difference in the experience for me.

this movie was great. it had action, it had story it had great visuals and it also includes the great new audio codec DTS:X and it literally puts you right in the middle of everything sound wise. if you have a system that supports DTS:X and ATMOS (the two new audio codecs) you will forever change your movie watching experiences.

what kind of wall mounts go wirh this?

these speakers have cutouts on the back of them for wall mounting. it also comes with a template for marking walls to put the needed anchors onto the wall for mounting. you must supply your own anchors and screws for mounting. once done, the speakers will simply drop down onto the screws you have in the wall and hang onto them. hope this helps.

Looking to upgrade home theater surround sony 1 box. 15yr old system. Receiver died. Now have onkyo 757 receiver. Now too much power for speaker. Looking at polk owh for left,right. Will these be good. What about center channel.

yes, these would be perfect for front L & R it will also be perfect for the center. it's always best for fluid timbre matching to have 3 of the same speakers across the front wall. they are designed to be easily mounted on the wall or can sit on furniture. these speakers have I believe to be 11 different ways to mount them on walls or ceilings.

best of luck, I love them, I use them as Dolby ATMOS & DTS:X on ceiling speakers! I have no doubt they will work perfectly for your needs. you WILL need a sub to bring up the low end.

tv has picture in background but has lo of snow in forground

you should probably check your source. does this happen with different sources? does this happen on more than one input with those different sources. if it does and if the sources play ok on a different tv then you should return the tv. just be sure you have reliable sources your trying to watch on the tv to ensure which is the problem, the source or the tv.

hope this helps.

Can you use an external sound bar with this TV

yes you can. if your soundbar has a digital inputs (both digital coax & optical to cover both) your in luck. also, if your soundbar has analog inputs your also in luck. you can even control the volume level on the soundbar with the tv remote. hope this helps.
