Fun Fun Fun

Verified Purchase:Yes
We MARVEL fans will watch anything MARVEL, even a movie about a bunch of D-lister comic heroes. Well I loved this ragtag team of misfits and loved the 1970s sound track. This movie has something for everyone: lovable characters, adventure, action, great music, cool gadgets and spaceships, good triumphs over evil and the promise of more to come!
This is a review for the 3D blu-ray widescreen release. The picture and sound quality are good. The 3D feature enhances the movie but does not have any blow you away 3D scenes. Special features include: Guide To The Galaxy with the director, James Gunn and a featurette on the making of the movie.

Double Schwarzenegger double action
on December 5, 2014
Posted by: matineeidol
from Sacramento, California
Verified Purchase:Yes
Two action movies starring Schwarzenegger. In The Eraser (1996) he is a US Marshall Witness Protection officer assigned to erase a whistle-blower's past and make her future safe. In Collateral Damage (2002) he is a family man who gets involved in the dangerous world of international terrorism after his wife and child are killed in a bombing. He takes matters into his own hands and tracks the bomber to Colombia where he kills a lot of people and blows up a lot of stuff. This movie was made pre 911 so do not judge it too harshly.
Two blu-ray disc 2.41:1 and 1.85:1 aspect ratio with no extra features.

Good movie for all
on December 4, 2014
Posted by: matineeidol
from Sacramento, California
Verified Purchase:Yes
Story of redemption that takes place between two brothers and their father while training for a fight. I became wrapped up in the drama of their relationships and their training for success in the ring. I found it suspenseful when the brothers confront each other in the ring for winner take all because I wanted both to win. Good performance by Nick Nolte.
Blu-ray disc, packaging, picture and sound quality good. Presented in 2.40:1 aspect ratio.

Pub crawl meets Invasion of the body snatchers
on December 4, 2014
Posted by: matineeidol
from Sacramento, California
Verified Purchase:Yes
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are a great team in movies. This is a comedy based on 5 friends who failed to make 12 pubs, 12 pints in one night in their youth, so they get together to try it again. The story unfolds with buddy comedy and turns into a Sci-Fi absurd homage to Invasion of the body snatchers. All makes for good clever fun.
Blu-ray disc, packaging, picture and sound quality good. Presented in 2.35:1 aspect ratio. With lots of extra features.

Great movie classic
on December 4, 2014
Posted by: matineeidol
from Sacramento, California
Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie was awarded two academy awards and nominated for more. Great performances by Gere, Winger and Gossett Jr and great music. Although the movie is about training naval pilots, it is an uplifting story about human conflict and human growth centering on a young man attempting to make a better life for himself.
Blu-ray disc, packaging, picture and sound quality good. Presented in 1.77:1 aspect ratio. Extra features: Documentary of the making of the movie, music and tour of the town.

A sweet treat

Verified Purchase:Yes
Tim Burton's stylized grim fairytale adaptation of Willy Wonka has exuberant kitsch sets and his usual piercing look at the underside of our suburban lives. I found my ride of the lottery for the golden tickets to the tour of the chocolate factory to be visually rewarding.
Blu-ray disc, packaging, picture and sound quality good. Presented in 185:1 aspect ratio.

Good psychological thriller

Verified Purchase:Yes
Robin Williams delivers one of his best performances as the photo guy trapped in his lonely fantasies in this effective thriller. Through the developing of one family's photos over the years, the photo guy comes to believe he is part of their family. His picture perfect fantasy collides with a dose of reality creating the psychology of this thriller. Well made movie.
Blu-ray disc, packaging, picture and sound quality good. Presented in 185:1 aspect ratio.
