An Excellent Quality Performer
on April 30, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
This mouse looks sleek! It features a nice gently sloping body with rubber side grips for the thumb and finger. The scroll wheel has a nice smooth scrolling action which is aided by a rubber central body with raised nubs. Installing the accompanying software you can adjust the laser dpi on the go by actuating the buttons below the scroll wheel for a more or less sensitive cursor action. I switched from an optical mouse and like the performance of the laser sensor. This mouse also has a nice quality feel in the soft flexible braided cord construction. The light illumination on the logo and trim can be dimmed or brightened to your liking, which I highly like because I can match it with my Razer Blackwidow Ultimate keyboard. The keyboard appears too bright for my liking out of the box, and so the two input devices being able to adjust the light output is a major plus. As an ending note, I use this mouse for both gaming and web surfing and it is great that i can adjust the responsiveness for the appropriate application.

Nice team up again
on October 20, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's about time these two team up to do a film together. Cannot really count the Expendables because Schwarzenegger is only seem in these movies for a few clips compared to the other casts. But this movie its all them together throughout. And they do a good job and the plot is pretty cool. Never seen this take (avoiding spoiling the movie) before, but it is a borrowing on real life events/ideas/implementations. Again I cannot say what these are as it would reveal the above.

Excellent Classic
on August 22, 2015
Posted by: HALgonewild
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an excellent 90's movie as there are few hacking themed movies that have been put out by the film industry. It sensationalizes hacking, though it is not an accurate portrayal of it. The beauty of the movie is it can spark the imagination and spur the interest to learn about coding and all things computer related. Its just a cool movie to watch and enjoy. As far as the Blu-ray transfer quality goes it seems to be an excellent transfer as the resolution looks good. It's been a long wait for this movie to appear on Blu-ray.

A Good Comedy
on February 15, 2015
Posted by: HALgonewild
Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie combines several known actors from various A listed movies with a plot generated around a smidge of Marijuana that the drug boss wants brought back from Mexico to compensate for the merchandise his pusher lost. To do this successfully Jason's character concocts an idea to use an RV and enlist some people in need of money to help him pull this off. Now this movie won't have you rolling on the carpet laughing your butt off and gasping for air, but it does have it's light humorous moments. I would not recommend going to see this in the theaters, but rather rent it. This movie has a good cast of characters which I think they could have pushed the envelope further and made it funnier, but they didn't. It's still a decent comedy, just not one that would be at the top of my must see list.

A Fine Good Classic

When I first saw this movie I knew it was going to be a classic in the horror genre. And let me tell you if I saw a scarecrow like that one driving out in the country, that would creep me out. Let me just say this classic is worth the watch.

Great pairing of actors
on February 7, 2015
Posted by: HALgonewild
Verified Purchase:Yes
The quality of the blu-ray transfer was excellent. I loved the pairing of these two talented actors. It's not an action movie, rather a (slow methodical drawn out) drama of espionage and the entanglements that develop as a result of the job and the consequences of the game they play. One of the highlights (in my opinion and this is revealed in the movie's trailer so it is not a spoiler) of the movie is the rooftop scene. Bishop in his conversation with Muir argues that "it is not a game". Muir argues back that it is and "it's not a game you (Bishop) want to lose". He warns him "you go off the reservation I will not come after you" (one of his several tutelage advise during his training). The movie encompasses Bishops capture and imprisonment that leads to up the finale. Sorry can't spill the beans, you'll just have to watch.

Great Transfer to Blu-ray
on December 21, 2014
Posted by: HALgonewild
Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie debut back in 1982, so for Disney to transfer this movie on over to the Blu-ray format and restore the film so that it looks even better is amazing. Not many films receive the necessary attention needed to make the images look good in transfer. The end result is you see the poor transfer images hugely magnified by the Blu-ray format. I have to say the movie screenplay was well ahead of it's time, and this movie received less fanfare when it was released than it does today. If you watch the bonus material on how they produced this film you would agree they should receive some form of award (today) for their achievement. As far as the movie plot goes you will either love it or hate. It's not as exiting as a Star Wars movie but it is interesting in it's own way. My review mainly is aimed at the quality of the transfer. How good the movie is is subjective. So to each their own. If you are not a sci-fi fan or are of a newer age of movie viewer you might not like this movie and find the plot long and drawn out, and then there is the price of this Blu-ray, it's not cheap (2014 purchase), it is a Disney release after all. But like I said before they did do a good job on the transfer. I had a Best Buy Rewards coupon so it brought the price down to where it was more affordable. I was not too sure how well the transfer was going to appear so that was my main apprehension in purchasing this movie.

Great follow up to the first movie
on October 8, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie takes place concurrently where the 300 are defending at Thermopylae in the first movie and after their defeat. If you disliked the first movie because of the bloodiness or lack of historical accuracy then let me save you the trouble and stop here as this movie will be similar, otherwise proceed on. I like the antagonist role of Artemisia and Eva Greene plays it very well. The movie provides a brief good back story on how her character came to be where she commands on the Persian side. The movie also provides some back story on how the Persian king came to power which is nice. On the Greek side is Sullivan Stapleton who plays Themistocles and he too does an outstanding job in his role. This movie covers the naval engagement side that was occurring during and after the fall of Thermopylae. Both sides employ strategy in their efforts to outdo the other on the battlefield, which is another aspect of the movie I like. The naval battles fill the waters with galleys ramming one another, ships sinking, and boarding parties dealing out bloody dismemberings with their swords and axes. The only thing this movie lacked was an epic quote like that from Leonidas in 300 "This is Sparta!".
