Hard to watch, but worth it.

Joe is not the most pleasant experience you'll have watching a movie, but that doesn't mean it isn't a very good film. Don't go in expecting another "crazy" Nicolas Cage performance - you won't get that - but as a slow boiling, emotionally loaded drama, it's up there in the list of best movies of 2014. It's frequently on sale, so if that sounds like your cup of tea, pick Joe up.

Fitting release for a unique movie.

I can't say with any certainty that the average viewer who heard about Birdman after the Oscars is going to like this film, but I loved it. Despite being a movie that draws from a myriad of sources, it still feels fresh and unlike anything else I saw last year.

Enjoyable movie, decent Blu-Ray, good extras.

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Interview, despite the attention it garnered from the Sony hack, is really just like any other Seth Rogen / Evan Goldberg production (Superbad, Pineapple Express, This is the End). If you enjoyed those, you'll probably enjoy this. It's maybe a little long, but has an interesting visual style and is fairly amusing. The transfer on the disc has a disconcerting level of black crush, which makes it difficult to see anything taking place at night. The tiger scene, in particular, is difficult to follow.

Great season, great packaging.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I don't normally buy an exclusive because of a slipcover, but since I was picking up season four at Best Buy for the bonus disc (about visual f/x), I went ahead and got one of the "house sigil" sets instead of the normal art. I have to say It looks very nice with the other seasons, and I prefer it to the "Three Eyed Raven" version. The set itself is worth buying in any iteration.

Clever Thriller in a Great Package
on February 19, 2015
Posted by: CapnHowdy

Verified Purchase:Yes
While not for everybody, David Fincher's Gone Girl is a tense thriller, and looks fantastic on Blu-Ray. Fans of the movie will appreciate the extra book, a nod to the main character of the film. It's a nice touch.

Almost makes me forget the 1998 Godzilla!

Verified Purchase:Yes
While it's not really in the same league as the original film or as silly as some of the later sequels, this Godzilla is fun to watch and takes the monsters seriously. The Blu-Ray has some nice a/v specs and pretty good extras, too.

This is a great movie to have around if you have friends with children, but the parents can also enjoy it. That's a win-win. Have purchased this for a few families since the combo-pack came out.

Good Price for Both Movies

I knocked off a star only because I liked Home Alone 2 less than Home Alone. Bought this as a gift for an 8 year old and he loved it. When it's on sale, it's a great deal for two holiday movies.

An Exclusive Worth Picking Up
on November 20, 2014
Posted by: CapnHowdy
from Raleigh, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Edge of Tomorrow was a surprisingly entertaining film that wasn't really on my radar, and this Best Buy Exclusive version is a very nice version to own at home. The extra feature is more substantive than most retailer exclusives and clocks in at nearly 30 minutes, adding to an already impressive Blu-Ray.

Makes a Good Thing Better...
on November 7, 2014
Posted by: CapnHowdy
from Raleigh, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug was already an improvement on An Unexpected Journey, but the extended edition of Peter Jackson's middle chapter smoothes over the bumps that did exist. In particular, the sections at Beorn's house and Mirkwood feel less rushed, less frenetic. The extra discs are packed, but the overall theme seems to be explaining how two movies became three - it's a fascinating peek behind the curtain...
