Gritty, dark and engrossing film
on November 11, 2014
Posted by: Greggery
from San Ramon, CA
Although quite dark with some disturbing scenes, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Nicholas Cage gives one of his better performances, and Tye Sheridan is one of today's most compelling young actors.

V stands for Very Boring
on September 23, 2014
Posted by: Greggery
from San Ramon, CA
Maroon 5 albums are usually filled with well-crafted songs that have catchy hooks that make you want to listen to it over and over. This album has 3 such songs: Maps, Animal and Unkiss Me, while the rest are boring, unmemorable pop fodder, despite being well-produced. Put it this way: after repeated listens, I have no desire to hear this album after the fourth song. Enough said.
My Best Buy number: 2161796464
What's great about it: A couple of good songs
What's not so great: The rest of the songs
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

One of Spielberg's finest
on September 23, 2014
Posted by: Greggery

One of Spielberg's early classics about man's contact with aliens before E.T. on Blu Ray. This disc contains 3 versions: Original Theatrical Release, Special Edition and Director's Cut, with a feature that when activated tells you the difference between versions while watching the movie. There are no other Special Features, thus I had to take away 1 star. Picture and sound are otherwise great, and it was a great value.

What's great about it: Great movie
What's not so great: No Special Features

My first Blu-Ray player
on August 20, 2014
Posted by: Greggery
from San Ramon, CA
This is my first Blu-Ray player, so I have nothing to compare it to. It plays Blu-Rays and DVDs and does what it's supposed to at a good price. The picture is good and DVDs do look better than on a traditional DVD player. Discs load pretty fast. I don't use any of the SMART features because I already have a SMART TV.
My one complaint is that the player is noisy when first accessing a disc (you can hear the laser moving/tracking during its initial read). It is silent once the disc starts playing.
All in all it seems to be a good player for the price.

Good, smaller SMART TV
on August 20, 2014

Internet Connectable?Yes
Connected to the Internet:Yes
I bought this for my bedroom and so far I am very satisfied with it. The picture is pretty good but the sound is kind of lacking and the remote feels hollow and flimsy (but it does what it's supposed to).
The best feature is the SMART capability. During setup, the TV easily found my wireless network; I entered the password and it connected right away. I've never had connection or buffering problems, although my modem is just in the adjacent room. The Amazon Instant Video app (for which I specifically chose this model) did not work initially but updated once online and worked within 30 minutes after setup. The was even a little alert with the icon telling me it was updated.
Internet content most enjoyed: Amazon Instant Video, YouTube

Can you surf the internet via the smart capabilities?

Unfortunately you cannot surf the internet. The Vizio Smart TV doesn't have a web browser. It comes preloaded with apps that let you stream content like Youtube, Hulu, iHeart Radio, etc. There are also apps for Facebook, Yahoo, stocks and weather, but without a browser you can't surf the web at will. I still have yet to figure out if you can add new apps.

how can i connect to rca audio system

By RCA I'm assuming you mean RCA connections, not the brand of electronics. Unfortunately you can't connect directly to an analog audio system. The Blu-Ray player only has HDMI and Coaxial Digital Output, which would connect to your HDTV and/or digital receiver/decoder. Those devices may have RCA outputs that you could then connect to an analog audio system.
