Verified Purchase:Yes
NCIS: Los Angeles is my favorite of the ever-expanding franchise, mainly due to the cast. Even when the stories are on the rote side, it's always fun to check in with O'Donnell, J, Linda Hunt, et al. Looks good on DVD, though I wish it were offered in-store on Blu-ray.

Two decent time-killers for the price of one
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: Coriolanus
Verified Purchase:Yes
Star power keeps you engrossed despite unlikely plot developments in both movies. ("Pelican Brief" has some real head scratchers.) No bonus features, though foreign language audio options are there for those interested. Video an audio are good if not top-of-the-class.

Glossy take on rock & rock "reality"
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: Coriolanus
Verified Purchase:Yes
This affectionate look at the rock & roll lifestyle is a little glossy for its own good, but strong performances and a killer soundtrack make it all go down smoothly. The hi-def bump doesn't work miracles, but enhanced sound and tons of bonus features make it a keeper for your movie library.

Double your WW2 action fun
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: Coriolanus
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Blu-ray double feature is a great deal, with cynically comic "Stalag 17" making a nice contrast to the gung-ho theatrics of "The Dirty Dozen." Both movies look good if not great in hi-def, but the sound on both releases gets a new lease on life. Bonus features are decent if lightweight.

![True Grit/The Searchers [Blu-ray]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/9149/9149044_sa.jpg)
This release features two classic westerns starring the legendary actor, John Wayne. In The Searchers Wayne plays Ethan Edwards, a former Confederate soldier who returns to his brother Aaron's frontier cabin three years after the end of the Civil War. In True Grit, he plays grumpy, pot-bellied U.S. marshal "Rooster" Cogburn, hired by 14-year-old Mattie Ross (Kim Darby) to find Tom Chaney (Jeff Corey), who killed her father.

One 4-star, one 2-star movie at a bargain price
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: Coriolanus
Verified Purchase:Yes
The original "True Grit" from 1969 hasn't worn well, with stiff performances by Wayne and, especially, Campbell, but the Duke is at his best in John Ford's "The Searchers." Both films are much improved on Blu-ray and the extras carried over from their DVD versions are fairly interesting. Definitely worth a purchase at Best Buy's low price.

![Birdman [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray] [2014]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/1821/1821324_sa.jpg)
Posted by: Coriolanus
Verified Purchase:Yes
"Birdman" is worth a look, though you may be surprised that such a gimmicky undertaking won the Best Picture Oscar. Michael Keaton is pretty good, though never really believable as a former superhero star. Edward Norton is less irritating than usual. It's fun to watch the nearly unbroken camera movement, but that's about it for excitement.

My favorite guilty pleasure
on November 6, 2016
Posted by: Coriolanus
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'll miss the two heroes of "Strike Back," though both guys have already landed other TV gigs. The final season is just as exciting, fun, and sort of semi-serious as the previous years, but each time I've been drawn in to the outlandish action. Strong visuals, great theme song, decent-to-excellent acting across the board.

![Banshee: The Complete Third Season [Blu-ray] [4 Discs]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/4723/4723104_sa.jpg)
The crime-fighting sheriff known as Lucas Hood (Antony Starr) returns in Season Three of this action-packed crime drama series. All ten episodes of Banshee's third season are included in this collection, featuring Lucas and his deputy partners Brock Lotus (Matt Servitto) and Siobhan Kelly (Trieste Kelly Dunn) and their often violent showdowns. Plotlines include showdowns between Lucas' team and felonious neo-Nazis, a kidnapping carried out by a returning character, and bloody conflicts involving various gangs in the city of Banshee.

If you're missing "Strike Back" and "Sons of Anarchy," give "Banshee" a shot. Season 3 finds the show in fine form and looking great in a classy Blu-ray presentation. Lots of commentaries and other nice extras make the set worth owning, as do the multiple language audio options. I really like watching the show in German.

If you like the two leads, buy it
on October 7, 2016
Posted by: Coriolanus
Verified Purchase:Yes
"Hawaii Five-0" is about as repetitious as it gets, but if you enjoy the clever banter between the two leads you'll get your money's worth from season 5. It looks good on DVD, though I wish they'd had the Blu-ray in stock. (I have those versions of the first 3 seasons.) I still prefer the original series, especially the classy guest stars, but this one works well on its own terms.

Still slick after all these years
on October 7, 2016
Posted by: Coriolanus
Verified Purchase:Yes
Even after 10 years, "Criminal Minds" finds ways to up the violence and creep factor without going completely overboard. The cast changes didn't bother me, since they're all pretty much cogs in the machine. Slick and well-written and competently acted, it's a good way to pass the time
