An absolutely absorbing and enlightening story about the captured-spy swap from back in the 1950s. Beautifully acted, especially by the always-reliable Tom Hanks and Oscar-winner (supporting actor) Mark Rylance, and expertly directed. One of the best movies of its kind I've seen in years.

This very good movie could be titled "The Matt Damon Show" because of how dominant Mr. Damon was in this movie. His performance ran the gamut from A to Z; most surprising was the use of humor to lighten things a tad. While I didn't think it was among the best movies of the year (my best movie of the year choice: "Spotlight"), "The Martian" was most entertaining and worth two-plus hours of your time.

Another Superb Performance

Ian McKellen turns in yet another outstanding performance in this new twist on the Sherlock Holmes' legacy: Holmes' memory is failing him as he tries to solve a mystery from deep in his past. The always-wonderful Laura Linney provides excellent support in this unique, thought-provoking movie.

Much, much better than I was expecting, this is an excellent if somewhat predictable story with exceptional acting by Jake G., who turns in a heartfelt performance in the lead role. With good support from Rachel McAdams and others, this is an entertaining way to spend two hours.

A very well done John Wayne western with outstanding performaces from him and James Stewart. A few twists and turns makes it different than the typical Wayne vehicle. Only negative: Lee Marvin as the "bad guy" is way over the top; would have been a better movie with a more subtle performance. Overall, however, a very good movie.

Not a bad thriller, made better mostly because of a strong performance by the always reliable Morgan Freeman. Ashley Judd, not among my favorite actresses, turns in a decent if not excellent performance.

You Might Have Missed...

...this one (lots of people missed it) when it was released in 1993. Alec Baldwin and Nicole Kidman (plus a brief appearance by the legendary George C. Scott) are at the top of their games in this nifty thriller focusing on a beyond-arrogant surgeon who makes the wrong call during a procedure, with intriguing results.

Lots of fun going back in time to 2001, when this movie was made, and included several big-time stars to be, including Amy Poehler, Bradley Cooper, Paul Rudd, Elizabeth Banks and others. The movie's setting is August 1981 on the last day of summer camp. Sit back, relax and enjoy the party.

This is the kind of movie that kind of sneaks up on you and gives you the creeps. Beautifully acted by the three leads, the twisty conclusion will reward your patience for what might seem like some slow going in the first half, necessary for story development and to establish the characters. This one is well worth almost two hours of your time.

Three decent Hitchcock classics on blu-ray for $14.99 is well beyond just a bargain: it's a steal at twice the price. All three movies are entertaining if, like me, you enjoy old-fashioned thrillers. Cary Grant, Gregory Peck, Laurence Olivier, Ingrid Bergman and more, plus the usual Hitchcock fun & games. Highly recommended.

Is this Sony BDP-S3700 Blu-ray Player the 2016 model which replaces the Sony BDP-S3500 2015 model? If so, are there any differences between the two models?
Yes, this is the new, 2016 model replacing the BDP-S3500. As I did not own the prior model, I do not know what the differences are with the new model. What I do know is that the BD-S3700 I own has performed flawlessly since I began using it about a month ago (and I use it for an average of 190 hours a month). It loads very quickly, plays beautifully and the price is right.

This Sony BDPS6500 Blu-ray player features built-in Wi-Fi. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.
What setting do you use for 7.1 sound?
Cannot get 7.1 working. I must be missing in the setup. Help
I had the same problem, which the manual doesn't address. Finally figured it out: in the audio setup mode, the unit defaults to "Stereo." To get either 7.1 or 5.1 sound, you need to change "Stereo" to "Surround." That should do it.
