One of the best purchases I've made at Best Buy. That is saying a lot because I'm a patient a buyer and have scored scores of great deals over the years. Fantastic quality for the price. Whoever Best Buy has making these for them - they need to make sure they keep that company making them in the future.
I sometimes work nights and I like to listen to music. My cell phone speaker is pretty pathetic. Having this little Bluetooth speaker has made my nights go by a lot faster in the short time I've had it. Plan on buying another for myself and several for gifts for XMas!

Don't know a ton about memory cards so I try to stick to well-known and respected brands like SanDisk. Bought this for my wife for her cell phone and so-far-so-good. No issues so far over a year later.

Only at Best BuyPower up plenty of remote controls or toys with this pack of 60 AA batteries. These alkaline batteries have a long shelf life, letting you stock up now without worrying about low performance later. Keep this pack of 60 AA batteries in the drawer or closet to keep favorite gadgets running or ensure flashlights are ready during emergencies.

60 AA batteries for 8.99 can't be beat. Not sure how they'd compare to higher end batteries as I don't buy batteries often.
Definitely head-and-shoulders over discount batteries form the $ stores in my experience. Seem to go on sale frequently and it seems like they are a deal of the day more than anything else.
Highly recommended for $10 or less.

BD50 is great; BD66 just OK for a 4K
on June 19, 2017
Posted by: Sooners8In17
Verified Purchase:Yes
The regular Blu-ray AKA BD50 isn't quite reference quality for the format but it's near the top of the next level down. I'd call it excellent but not reference. The 4K video presentation is a worthy upgrade for any fan and noticeably better due to the abilities of the format. Believe it's an upscale from a 2K scan. Recommended immediate pick up for any fan. If you're not a fan I'd recommend picking up some of the more reference quality 4K discs first.
The audio is where you'll see the biggest upgrade on this disc. I'd give the audio for both the BD50 and thr BD66 a 4.5 each for their respective formats so the audio is a big step up between the BD50 and the 4K IMO.
Movie 4.5
BD50 video: 4.5
BD50 audio: 4.5
BD66 video: 3.5
BD66 audio: 4.5

4k not best of the best but still very good
on June 9, 2017
Posted by: Sooners8In17
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have the 1080 transfer I might out this off but not long. Buy some 4Ks you don't own the film of at all but definitely do pick this up.
The 1080 transfer is truly reference. Which is saying a lot with hiw many 1080 discs there are compared to 4K. A very nice transfer and improvement over the 1080 on PA and AQ, to be sure.
Film's great, true American heroes all, and an inspiring story of survival.
If you're a fan of this movie buy it straight away even if you have the 1080. If you're on the fence buy a few others or a dozen other 4Ks first but definitely do pick this up.

Maybe not top 5 4K but def top 10
on June 9, 2017
Posted by: Sooners8In17
Verified Purchase:Yes
Detail is noticeably improved over it's 1080 counterpart but what I enjoyed the most was the improved contrast in the film's darker sceens. Contrast in dark and shadowy scenes is significantly improved.
The film itself is a gritty and fast paced ride into the world of drug trafficking and cartels.
Highly recommended 4K release.
5* disc
4.5* movie

Presentation 5* and movie 5*
on June 9, 2017
Posted by: Sooners8In17
Verified Purchase:Yes
Both discs are pure reference quality for their respective formats. Simple as that.
Love the film itself! Best pure action movie of the past 20+ years IMO. Serious action with a lot of gun fu and the hand-to-hand sequences are mostly reslistic.
Should be one of your top 5 4K purchases if you're an action fan (even if you enjoy other formats equally). The highest recommendation.

Not ref quality disc but noticeable upgrade
on June 9, 2017
Posted by: Sooners8In17
Verified Purchase:Yes
The 4K image is not as sharp as reference quality discs like Lucy or John Wick but still a worthwhile upgrade from 1080 disc even for those that already own the latter. The details and textures on the 4K disc are noticeably smoother.
Apples to oranges both the 1080 and 4K discs' audio are reference quality for their respective versions.
The movie itself is one of my favorite action/spy movies of the last 20 years. Great combination of action and character development for what would become a franchise.
5* for the movie. 4* for the disc.

Reference Quality Video & Audio
on June 9, 2017
Posted by: Sooners8In17
Verified Purchase:Yes
5* for the reference quality presentation
3* for the movie itself
The PQs and AQs on both discs are reference quality. This is what 4K is made for! The 4K is a big upgrade over the 1080P and both are reference quality so enough said.
The movie itself leaves something to be desired. I didn't like the ending at all and I think that even those who did will admit that the same ending could have been executed much better. And I know it's an action flick but an extra 5 minutes of character development in the beginning would have done wonders in helping viewers relate and sympathize with the main character. I don't need a ton of character development in my action movies but I need more than 2 minutes worth.
