![The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 2 [Blu-ray/DVD] [SteelBook] [Only @ Best Buy] [2015]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/4827/4827603_sa.jpg)

A good, if bloated, end to a popular series. Female viewers may find more meaning and inspiration, but this is a capable finale. Jennifer Lawrence is the best thing about every Hunger Games film and she commands here also. If not revolutionary, it is at least evolutionary.

If you like martial arts films, these are required viewing. Stunning action scenes and sets make this the new standard for Asian period films.

The truth is still out there...

You either get it or you don't. The X-Files, rightfully, transformed television as we know it. Today, it is easy to forget the effect this show had upon the landscape of serial entertainment. Many of the shows today would not be successful if it were not for the imaginative story telling of this show. The X-Files had it all, character, story and pace. The third season continues the juggernaut of exciting television that everyone else wishes they could emulate. Mulder and Scully are truly one of the greatest duos of all time.

![Schindler's List [20th Anniversary] [3 Discs] [Blu-ray/DVD] [1993]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/8099/8099049_sa.jpg)

If you have heard this film is good, there is a reason. The film earned Oscars for best picture and director (among others) and has also been recognized by the AFI as one of the 100 greatest films of all time. It was filmed in black and white and Spielberg had to fight the production company to achieve his vision. Great drama and some of the most chilling scenes drive the tension over the top. Spectacular.

There are few films in history that change our perception of what movies are capable of achieving. The very first animated feature paved the way, not only for Disney as a company, but animation as an art form. Without this film, none of the animated movies of today would have been possible. There are some dated elements to Snow White, but it came out in 1937! This restored version is an absolute must to any film library, especially if you call your self a movie buff.

Bond is back.

Posted by: Catfan
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
The steelbook utilizes the artwork from the original advance poster. The film is quintessential Bond. A huge opening teaser, huge stunts, some romance and some big (record breaking) explosions. Daniel Craig is dialed in as 007. Skyfall may be better, but not by much.

Good, but not yet great

The Xbox One is a worthy attempt to be an all-in-one entertainment hub in your home theater. It is capable of much, but it is odd that the gameplay seems to be less important in a system built on gaming. I am not a crazy avid gamer, but play often. The PlayStation has more gaming power and some Xbox peripherals (recharging stations) are not up to the 360's ability. At least they are working on backward compatibility (for now).

Iron Maiden is a global force and has been for decades. This release is average by their standards which is admittedly high. You get plenty of music (2 CDs), but the songs rarely feel like "Maiden" to me. That may be because Steve Harris had less input on this album than is the norm. In any event, it is great to have Bruce back after his health scare. With some reservations I say "Up the Irons!"

A fitting send off
on December 5, 2015
Posted by: Catfan
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
The 7th (!) F&F is exactly what you expect it you have seen the previous films. Don't look for realism and just go with it. The theme of family that runs through the franchise, is especially poignant this time around. The passing of Paul Walker shadows the entire film, but the send off at the end is restrained (unlike the films- so that was a surprise), tasteful and a bit moving. The film itself is solid, but not the high point of 5 and 6.

Still a classic

Verified Purchase:Yes
No movie, since Star Wars, has changed (event) movies on such a scale. You could argue The Abyss or Terminator 2, but the photoreal effects in JP are on another level. It is surprising how well they hold up today. The story is simple (and that's OK) and you get what you want (dinosaurs with plenty of screen time ahem...Godzilla 2014). Cue it up and sit back, it's gonna be a fun ride!
