The quality on the first movie is iffy...
on February 7, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
The first movie was a low budget flick by Danny Boyle. It looks like it was filmed on video tape so the picture quality and sound is pretty iffy with edge enhancements.
The second movie was made on film and is a lot better image-wise compared to the first movie. Too bad the first movie is a better film than the second.

Still a spooky show...

To all the youngsters out there... This is the original spooky horror show. You should watch this and see how even a low budget movie can be well made without all these special effects..

The complete fourth season of the present-day adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's imitable Sherlock Holmes crime drama series. Benedict Cumberbatch stars as the titular detective who cracks various crime cases for the Metropolitan Police Service in London alongside his sidekick Doctor John Watson (Martin Freeman). The award-winning adaptation is a collaboration between the BBC and PBS, and the fourth season features guest star Toby Jones as one of Sherlock's many adversaries.

Sherlock series getting a bit predictable...

This season is not as good as the first few seasons... It seems that the writers are sticking with the same formula making the show predictable... Still, the series is better than other shows on television...

A great UHD player fot the price
on December 3, 2016
Posted by: jon96789
from Honolulu, HI
Verified Purchase:Yes
This player is going for about $200 and at that price, it's a steal. The Panasonic is going for several hundred dollars and Oppo and Sony have not released their players yet.
Since this is a first gen player, you can expect some design quirks and there are some. For some reason, the Samsung uses 4:4:4 color mode which requires 18Gbps bandwidth. This means that in most cases, you will have to upgrade your HDMI cables. 95% of HDMI cables cannot handle full bandwidth UHD signals, even those that are "certified".
Once you do get the system up and running, UHD does make the image more detailed, even on a 50" screen. But it is the HDR that makes the most impact in viewing UHD movies. Colors pop and you get brighter whites and darker blacks.
The only issue is that a lot of 2014-2105 UHD color displays are not designed for HDR so you will only get the added detail.

A typical Coen brothers movie
on July 30, 2016
Posted by: jon96789
from Honolulu, HI
Verified Purchase:Yes
The movie would be enjoyed only by Coen brothers fans. The story is about a "fixer' in Hollywood in the 1930s. It is funny here and there but just an average movie...

I bought this to supplement the memory in my Sony Hi-Res player. The problem with this card is that the write speeds are a bit slow. i ended up buying a Samsung memory card which is faster.

But i wonder on how accurate the facts are... i guess it is a typical Hollywood movie taking liberties with the story.

A good movie but best as a rental

This movie is pretty good but probably only for one viewing. I would recommend it as a rental. The cast is excellent but the movie can be a tad violent.

Best remote for the price

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's not as fancy as the top line Harmony remotes but this one gets the job done. i like the fact that it uses AA batteries which are replaceable. The Harmony database is quite extensive and all my devices are covered. You can't go wrong with this...

SSDs are getting cheaper and better...

Verified Purchase:Yes
I remember when SSDs were extremely expensive. When I bought this, the price was slightly over $200. One TB SSDs were nearly $1000 a year ago.
SSDs are super fast, 4-6x faster than regular hard drives. My Windows 10 computer boots up in 10 seconds. Opening and saving files are super quick. It makes my computer super fast.
