Because of the pre-order deal at best buy, you not only get the free early cinema now copy, but you also received this cool kid's lunch box. You don't need to use it for lunch. You can use it for lots of things, like carrying mini-minions around. Kids definitely enjoy it.

What's great about it: First the Free Cinema Now copy and now the lunch box!
Once upon a time, Gru (voice of Steve Carrell) dreamt of stealing the moon - these days he's a single adoptive father of three precocious girls. Having given up his spectacular life of crime, Gru now aims to produce a delicious new line of jams with the help of his tiny minions and his old pal Dr. Nefario (voice of Russell Brand). Feeling unfulfilled in his newfound role as a jam-maker, Dr. Nefario announces that he will be departing for more evil pastures just as Gru is approached by the Anti-Villain League to capture the mysterious culprit who just stole a top-secret research lab filled with PX 41 -- an experimental serum with the strength to transform harmless animals into ravenous monsters. The AVL is certain that the culprit is covering his tracks by posing as a small business owner at a local mall, and assign their best agent Lucy (Kristen Wiig) to aid Gru in identifying him. Meanwhile, Gru's oldest adopted daughter Margo (voice of Miranda Cosgrove) falls for rebellious teen Antonio (voice of Moises Arias), the leather-jacketed son of boisterous Mexican cantina owner Eduardo (voice of Benjamin Bratt). Now, with Gru's paternal instincts kicking into full gear just as a dastardly plot begins to unfold, the devoted new father must divide his time between saving the world from an enigmatic super-villain, and saving Miranda from total heartbreak. All the while, a suitable mother for the girls may have been standing right under Gru's pointy nose the entire time. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi
With some of best buy's pre-order deals you get an extra copy of the movie through Cinema Now prior to the movie actually being released. I love this feature and would use it again. Later when the movie is released, you can watch all the extras, etc. This is definitely the way to go.

What's great about it: The pre-order with bestbuy is great since you get to stream the movie prior to receiving it.
Overall, this is one of the oldest (hence first) slapstick movies that are stupid funny and have a great word play. Some of the classic jokes originated in this movie. You got cameos and a career restart for Leslie Nielsen. If you like stupid comedy and haven't seen this one, go pick it up for $5. You will not be disappointed.
This is older Black Keys, so it is not as polished. A little grittier but overall a great album. I actually like it a little dirtier than current version of Black Keys. Music at it's simplistic but groove driven beat. Good lyrics, singing. Overall a good album.
I don't know if this is all copies but something happened in the Ironman song about 1/2 way to 2/3 way through. It otherwise is a good representation of classic sabbath. But if you are purchasing and wanting a good version of iron man get a different one.

What's not so great: Something happened with recordings.
If you love action flicks, you will like this one. It Jason Statham, injected with a poison that will kill him if his heart rate slows down. So it is one adrenaline rush after another. Don't mind the story, plot or for that matter cinematography. Just stick around for the all out action.

What's great about it: duh, read the title of the review
This movie still holds up pretty well after all this time. No, it is not in the top 100 movies of all time or even in the top 100 action movies of all time. Maybe in the top 100 movies made from comic books of all time. But I am not sure if there is a 100 of those or not. This is Wesley Snipes near his acting peak, before he would do any garbage for a buck to pay the IRS. Good action, good story and definitely worth watching if you haven't seen it. He is part vampires fighting vampires with the old and gnarled up Kris Kristofferson to help.

Getting Dragon Age 2 for $5, I figured I had to give it a shot. I know the DA itself was a great game, but had heard mixed reviews for DA2. It is a decent game. It is like a bunch of other games that have main quest lines and also secondary quest lines. You can respond to conversations in 2-4 ways depending on situation. If you can get it for $10 or under it is worth. I wouldn't pay for more then that. It just doesn't seem to take that long to beat, even when doing all the secondary quests. It was enjoyable and having paid $5 made it worth. I may go back and try a different character and see if there were any other quests I missed.

To get 1600 points for 14.99 was a decent price, but that best buy threw in the extra 400 points definitely made me bite on this. The 400 were sent via email, where the cards had to be picked up in the store. I don't spend a lot on xbox, but these points helped me to spend a little faster then normal. Great Deal!
