Great Continuation

Verified Purchase:Yes
This season kept the excitement going from previous seasons, with many unexpected twists. Can't wait to see the final outcome of it all. We love all the characters, both good and bad, as all parts are cast and played perfectly.

good, not great comedy
on February 20, 2015
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
There are laughs to be found in this film including James Franco's committed performance as a successful but dim TV host, but a lot of the funniest bits you've already seen in the trailer - We enjoyed the great chemistry between James Franco & Seth Rogan, but the film overstayed its welcome

better for the teens than adults
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
This unfortunately felt like a film better enjoyed by pre-teens. It didn't carry over well for an adult film goer. The visuals are good, but the script and story are lacking. It wants to be as powerful as "The Hunger Games" but misses the mark.

This hard hitting release for fans of martial arts cinema includes all three films from the Ong Bak trilogy, starring Tony Jaa: Ong Bak: The Thai Warrior, Ong Bak 2, and Ong Bak 3.

great action sequences and not much else
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
The 4 stars are because the action sequences are hard hitting and terrific. The story is nothing new. The acting is sometimes painful. But you don't watch these movies for Oscar performances. On the fight front, these films are winners. A great value.

Smart sci-fi that will kick your butt
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
Tom Cruise can do anything. Here he is a less than admirable character who manages to do the right thing almost despite himself. Emily Blunt has never been sexier/scarier, and I mean that in a good way. With little introduction as to the world these characters are in, you are immediately THERE and involved. The overused and tricky time travel plot device is handled really well.Finally a sci-fi movie that doesn't make you frustrated by its failings.

Superb continuation of the series
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
Readers of the books should be very pleased with the treatment of the material for the films. This 2nd film is again terrific visually with the characters expanding into their new roles as Hunger Games winners. All the actors are wonderful. Donald Sutherland as President Snow continues to chill and Jennifer Lawrence continues to amaze as Katniss.

extended violent undercover cop picture
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
The surviving policeman from the first film is forced to go undercover and infiltrate a violent crime family under the guise of finding the dirty cops that allowed the carnage of the first film. That is really the only connection to the first film. The action sequences are good enough, but the story is disjointed and unoriginal. Super violent even for fans of controlled violence.

another disappointing Mars movie
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
One more movie set on Mars which just doesn't quite work. This film borrows heavily from several other space exploration movies with a little bit of zombie action thrown in. The visuals are good enough, but there is a been there & seen that feel to most of the film with the cliche of smart people acting really dumb. Liev Schreiber is as good as he can be with such a 1 dimensional character. Fun enough if your expectations are fairly low.

A thoughtful look at true forgiveness
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
Brendan Gleeson once again amazes in a tricky role. He plays a man who becomes a priest late in his life who is forced into examining not only his faith but his place in life and the choices he has made. Beautifully filmed, beautifully acted, unforgettable ending. A true meditation on whether any act can be forgiven.

unexpected mix of heartbreak and space fun
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: reelfans
Verified Purchase:Yes
Unlike the other recent films in the Marvel Universe, there was a pure joy to moments of this film, but there was also some very universal sadness. The film has a great story, visuals, and acting. Chris Pratt is effortlessly charming and sincere in equal measures. The effects are in service to the story and aren't really the entire focus of the film. Really enjoyed this!

Update your movie library with this DVD recorder that features one-touch recording for easy operation and bidirectional dubbing that lets you transfer VHS to DVD and DVD to VHS.
 

Two questions 1. Can I tape a program directly from my TV to the recorder to make an instant DVD ? 2. What inputs are there on the recorder to accommodate whatever cables can be brought in ? Can RCA cables be used ? Can USB cables ? Can HDMI cables? C

1. You can record from whatever device the input is coming from. Does the TV have outputs?

2. Inputs include DV, A/V, S-video, RCA-video and analog audio. There is no DVD recorder that has HDMI input available in the US. Something to do with laws and/or copy-write.
