A Lot to Like

A great story with interesting characters. A nice return visit to the late 1950's era of American suburbian life that many baby boomers can relate to. A growing up story with drama and comedy from a kid's prospective.

An interesting story with great animation

I like this version of the Jungle Book much better than the original Disney animated version. The story is more fleshed out, and the animals are rendered to look and act so believably.

A Great Double Feature Value

Captain Phillips and Zero Dark Thirty both flesh life, detail, and understanding into the actual events that would not have been possible to experience otherwise. Highly recommended at the two for one combo price.

Top of the line performance

Verified Purchase:Yes
Selecting a large screen TV is not easy. The 2016 model year will be the last year that the 78 inch size will be offered. It offers a worthwhile 3.5 inches greater diagonal size than a 75 inch sets which only measures an actual 74.5 inches. It is the only Samsung set to offer a full array backlight. At 104 pounds, this set is at the limits of what two average size persons can lift. Up sizing to an 80 inch plus screen will add about 40 pounds. The picture quality offers great color saturation, high output brightness, and super sharp scaling of all 4k and less than 4k density images. The processor is very quick for accessing jpeg files and works well with any hard drive connected to it. There are three USB inputs of which two have 1v of power for hard drive usage. It is amazing to see the superb upscaling quality of small jpeg files blown up to fill this giant screen. The viewing angle both horizontal and vertical is more narrow than that of a average LCD TV but offers a superior picture within the viewer span of a three across sofa. The TV's sound quality is better than average, with natural voicing and warmth unlike the tiny sound of other sets. The bigness negative is the variability of the black levels as affected by the overall quantity of light present on the screen. The screen can get quite black but falls short of the control that individual pixeled OLED screens can achieve. The screen is curved which adds nothing to the viewing experience, but it is soon forgotten while viewing. Setting the picture controls is highly critical. It is possible to make the picture look really bad if mal-adjusted. I recommend using the "High" setting in the custom auto-dimming menu, and liberal use of the Blurr and Judder controls. Highly recommended if you need a screen of this size, and are able to find one that will fit within your budget. It's overall picture performance exceeds than of any lessor priced LCD screens.

The story will keep your attention to the end. The Robots and automation show the possibilities of what man can create. But, can it be wisely controlled? I can recommend the movie story highly, but the 3D version is formatted with lost a portion of the sides of the image but has minor added image height vs. the 2D version. The 3D is also not the best as it is simulated from the 2D images. As such, I prefer the 2D version.

This was the first X-Men movie I have viewed. It did required more than average concentration to follow the story. Additionally, I was not familiar with the X-Men characters and their personalities. Perhaps a second or third viewing would be enlightening. The video presentation was above average, and the 3D version was satisfyingly 3D! Recommended for true fans of the franchise at this point.

A Great Planet of the Apes Story
on May 24, 2017
Posted by: HavaCow
Verified Purchase:Yes
This installment of the Planet of the Apes Movie does not disappoint. It is a well written and acted story involving conflict between the Apes and the Humans. The story will put you on the edge of your couch from beginning to the end. The apes are so convincingly rendered digitally and portrayed with realistic manners. The video is very viewable, but not cutting edge detailed. The 3D presentation provides natural depth without noticeable lost of detail vs. the 2D version. Very highly recommended.

Another hit fantasy tale by Disney. The animation is top notch with glops of detail, and beautiful highly saturated colors. The 3D is excellent without artifacts, and adds much to the enjoyment of this movie. Now, if only Disney would put this on sale once in a while. Highly recommended!

I found the pace of this Star Trek adventure to be a bit slow. It was made during the time of Leonard Nimoy's passing and the movie does honor him within the story. Viewing the Bonus Features beforehand adds much to the enjoyment and understanding of this movie. I think that Beyond would be appreciated more upon a second screening. Technically, the movie looked a bit soft, and the 3D did not improve the depth to any reference level. Recommended for Trekkies, but wait for a sale on this title.

Mexican Book of Life in 3D

Verified Purchase:Yes
Whether your heritage is Mexican or otherwise, this story is great to learn something about Mexican customs and culture through this animated tale! The video is of reference quality with ultra detail and eye popping colors! The 3D is also exceptional. No 3D artifacts at all, and superb 3D depth in every scene! View all of the many informative Bonus Features BEFORE viewing the movie. It will make the movie so much more meaningful and enjoyable. My highest recommendation!
