John Wick returns in a movie the is violent but it is a stylized almost balletic display on gunplay in a world of bad guys anti antiheroes in which Wick is treated almost like a rock star The story and acting is imaginative in a way that is so untypical that it make his world seem like a hitman's fantasy The extras on the disk a very informative of Wick's world

Reynolds does it again

His performance(He ruined Green Lantern Too) along with a really badly done sound soundtrack totally wrecks this movie Every few minutes the soundtrack volume over loads the surround sound system. The constant use of profanity makes this movie un suitable for families and children over all this was a waste of good money. I would say unless you can stomach 2 hours of bad acting and constantly reseting you sound system stay away from this turkey

Failure
on October 3, 2015
Posted by: clairbearski
from esat stroudsburg pa
Just like the WD portable drive for nor reason this drive suddenly failed
seems portable as a category are not worth purchase as they have a near 100% failure rate and even before that the working are very spotty in future I will stick to the plugin drive and just carry a bigger bag.
best advice on external drive buy several and back up everything in triplicate as all external drive fail over the course of time but portables like this one are totally unreliable

Seems to work good but has a few issues
on December 10, 2014
Posted by: clairbearski
from esat stroudsburg pa
I've played around with it a bit It seems to work well with go pro how ever it does work with DSLRs as advertised. You would need a more substantial stabilizer for that. Balancing the unit is easy The other problem I noted was the adapter does not fit the GoPro without forcing it. The tines on the mount need to be forcibly spread in order to mount the go pro If I get a regular video camera to use with it will have to be very light and I will take the stabilizer to the store to make sure it's compatible.

Better than the competition

from esat stroudsburg pa
Easy to use, Accurate maps including all the recently named roads, a lot of new roads about 2 years ago in my area, Tomtom and Magellan maps don't have them The downloads from could be a bit faster but at least they DL far faster than others, 3 hours for maps vs 12 on Tomtom(if you can keep it form timing out) Programing destination work better than the others. and some cute downloadable content, my current car icon in an X-wing fighter It finds attraction like ski areas that do not even exist in the Magellan's maps Over all Garmin is far better than the others, It is the only major brand to buy

Not what is advertised
on November 25, 2014
Posted by: clairbearski
from esat stroudsburg pa
I bought this as a replacement for a really bad Magellan unit, This one is perhaps worse. First off it has no maps installed when I tried to get maps installed, the download time was estimated at over 12 hours on a cable modem, the download timed over and over called tech numerous times no useful help was given. All in all it is a really bad quality unit
. I am half afraid to try any other unit after the last 2 purchases I had a Navteq GPS that got wet and stopped working it was far superior t either Tomtom or Magellen Wish I could find another one
I am taking this buzzkill back to bestbuy

Ancient Rome. An era and a place where the whims of a single man can send ripples though the entire known world. Where empires fall and regimes end in the face of one colossal army. Where greed, jealously, betrayal and sacrifice played such a role that they shape the future world. The intensely dramatic and deeply twisted rise of the Roman Empire is now your story. You control the army, you choose the path, you determine the destiny. Total War: Rome II puts the fate of the most powerful and corrupt empire in all of history into your hands.With the power of the vast Roman war machine under your command, you can dominate the enemies of the empire by military, economic or political means — the choice is yours. Your rise to power has brought about jealousy and betrayal from your closest allies — will you allow it to strike you down or will you turn on old friends? Will you sacrifice everything to save the Republic? Or will you turn to the darker side of ruling and plot to become an Emperor and place Rome in a dictatorship? With an epic turn-based campaign mode and thunderous, bone-splintering real-time battles, Total War: Rome II allows you to plan your conquest of the known world in exquisite detail — and according to your vision. A new graphics engine and unit cameras deliver a stunning experience of each intense clash, exotic city and massive army in incredible detail from almost any perspective. Scalable to either your PC or laptop, Total War: Rome II delivers an engrossing experience that lets you feel the scope of Ancient Rome's power, the temptation of totalitarian leadership and the intensity of colossal conquests.

Dtsappointing Worst Total release

Age:55-64
Gender:Male
I have been playing Total war games since the first released Mediaeval and the Original Rome This one is major step backwards Graphical and in game play, The graphics are nowhere close to the adverts on the websites ads, The battles are no improvement over the first Rome game. You are limited to just 3 armies and to navies. and unit recruitment only takes place with in the armies and navies, during which you armies are paralyzed and "muster" new units is completely stops for no reason. There are many other shortcomings than can be listed here. I waited for months for this turkey and am disappointed to the point that I may not consider not purchasing future games of the series. I really, REALLY wanted to like this games Especially after the Shogun 2 was so very well done Do your self a favor if you want a TW game get Shogun 2 or even the much maligned Empire They are both far better games
What's great about it: Not much

The so called carreer mode is a total bust You cannot play any thing other tha an abreviated 7 minute game. No option for any kind of multiplayer league, Gameplay is awful play is sluggish at best. all the thing that are so right in NCAA are missing here. Who really plays football on line .
Just like EA ruining Golf with their dreadful Tiger woods series and totally messsed up FIFA soccer the have now ruined the premier sports franchise EA sports can count me out for any future versions of Maddan after seeing this total dog of a game
What's great about it: NOTHING
What's not so great: No franchise mode, useless online mode Awful game play

Two Blu-Ray Discs for each movie!
By Bestigri from Bridgeport, Pa
I am kind of disappointed of this released version, I thought since is a blu-ray edition and blu-ray disc had a storage capacity greater than DVD disc, the studios will fix the whole extended edition in just one blu-ray disc per each movie and not like they did with the DVD versions that is cut in two parts. The cut is exactly at the same part of the movie that on the DVD version, I feel like I just got the DVD version with a blu-ray label. Sound and picture are great and the extras are fine DVDs are fine too.

Two Blu-Ray Discs for each movie
July 4, 2011
With a playtime opf 4 hours each have a little break from movie being on 2 disks is not a problem unless you are unable to get ouit of your chair to change disks. besides a HiDef file is much larger than a dvd image would you rather have a loss of image quality to squeeze the entire film on just one disk

Saturday. To some, it's a day off from work, a day to sleep in, a day to kick back. For you, Saturday is what you train for all week. It's the day that defines whether you'll be celebrated as the new hero of the campus — or the biggest letdown in town. The day when your most heated rival will be laid to rest — or trample on your pride. It's game day. And in the fierce world of college football, it's more than just a game — it's a way of life. Do you have what it takes to go back to school and bring glory to your campus on the field?Climb into your school colors and hit the stadium for the most authentic college football experience yet in NCAA Football 12. This year, the traditions are more intense, the celebrations are rowdier and the school pride has never been so real. Live the pain, glory, action and grit of Saturday any day of the week as you take the competition to the 50-yard line against your fiercest rivals. Deliver punishing hits and devastating tackles with the all-new momentum-based collision and tackling system that lets you control a player through the moment of impact. Experience the true emotion of college football with all-new pre-game traditions, including the Sooner Schooner and Ramblin' Wreck, and celebrate exhilarating plays with school-specific icons like Chief Osceola, Uga and Tommy Trojan. Take on the challenge of running a program in the enhanced Dynasty mode that lets you begin your coaching career as a coordinator or take over as a head coach. Rise through the rankings and lead your school to a coveted National Championship. Forever alter the landscape of college football by realigning conferences or constructing new 16-team super conferences. Make an impact on the field as you lead your team down the road to the National Championship and learn what old-school football glory really means.

Another money maker
By Inspect1 from indiana
This game is the same as years before it. Very difficult to complete a pass, kick off run backs are just too hard to get passed the 20yd line.
Presentation is good and graphics are good as well. EA still have control of how many passes you can complete, fumbles you will have, how many INT you will have, and so on.
This game could have been a great game but there are just too many unfair settings against you.
If you have a player with great speed on a so called poor team, EA setup makes sure that that player run much slower against those so called better teams.
Often time’s players on poor team run backward or sideways so good team can stop you. thanks to EA unfair settings.
These issues is also visible in madden10, 11, and will be visible in madden 12.
I would not pay 64.00 for this game or madden12 as well. I also did not buy M11.
Wait and read the review and wait until the price is cheaper.

Not completely aon target review
July 16, 2011
While some of you points are valid such as the passing {Note Landry Jones Of OU completed just 9 0f 31} which is rather in accurate Kick off run backs are not as bad as you say As to unfair settings try tweeking the AI or a lower difficulty level. I was able to beat Auburn with PSU set difficult at All_american 28 -0
I wil be posting my review of the game soon check it out

I am sorry to hear you need too attack my honest and humble opinion of an inadequate. piece of software that obviously was no ready for release I wanted so much to like this game but alas Sega let me and many others down
I have played Rome 2 for better than ten hours and it is not a matter of the oft mention glitches it is just a bad game from a point of playability especially when compared to any of it's TW kindred Sega should not have released a game with so many flaws and substandard graphics that bear only a passing resemblance to the promos Obviously this is more of a beta than a truly finished product else why would they be issuing patches ad infinitum Anyone wanting a good TW game should stick with Shogun 2, Empire Or even Rome1 They are all still available as far as I know Check Best Buy's site to see if they have them
