Alejandro G. Iñárritu can do nothing wrong.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Director Alejandro G. Iñárritu is a our modern master filmmaker. The documentary 'A World Unseen' that is included with this, is as engrossing as the movie. This is in your face realism...you feel the cold, the blood, the wounds and every emotion that comes along.

This will probably be as close to a live action as this tale will get. The mini-hardback is just the right size to be comfortably readable.

Good retread of the original movies

Daisy Ridley as Rey and John Boyega as Finn are really the main reason this wasn't just a boring re-enactment of the first three Star Wars films.

Based on a series of science fiction novels, The Expanse is set a few hundred years in the future when humanity has colonized a large chunk of the solar system. Follow Joe Miller (Thomas Jane), a police detective born and raised in the asteroid belt, as he investigates the mysterious disappearance of corporate heiress Julie Andromeda Mao and the implications that has for the tenuous peace between Earth, now controlled by the United Nations, and a militaristic colony of humans who have settled on Mars. Also trying to uncover the mystery of Julie's disappearance are Jim Holden (Steven Strait) and the crew of an ice hauling ship which finds itself caught up in the political intrigue involving Earth, Mars and the Belt. This 3-disc set collects all 10 episodes from the first season of the Syfy series.

Great adaption of a Great book series
on May 6, 2016
Posted by: whalter58
Verified Purchase:Yes
Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck write under the pen name "James S. A. Corey" and they created the 'Expanse' universe, that this series is based on, in several novels along with novellas and short stories. As the saying goes 'The book is better', but this is an excellent realization of the Expanse. A big story spread all through our Solar System!

The Public Security Section 9 is back in action!

Major Motoko Kusanagi and her crew must find out who assassinated the Prime Minister, and why. The way I watch anime is by first watching it with English subtitles and Japanese audio, to get the original emotional feel...then I watch it with English dubbing voice actors . Either way this is a good addition the movie/tv franchise.

There are moments in this film that actually make you squirm in your seat, the tension is that deep. It's like the worlds most violent Jack-in-the-Box is being wound up... and you can't look away...you know it's coming...then BOOM! it pops right at you. Good Stuff.

Part one of a trilogy!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Boy, is this creepy! [sorry, couldn't resist doing that] In the making of segment of the extras, the creators say that this is part one of a trilogy about the making of a serial killer. The Boy of the title is played by a gifted natural actor Jared Breeze, keep your eye out for him, he's amazing The film builds it's tensions slowly and very quietly.

Does the kitchen timer work when the microwave is working

It's very useful to use the timer on the microwave to keep track of something else you are timing. So many don't do this and for me, it's a critical feature.
Yes it does and I use it to time boiled eggs and other stove top tasks, however be near your kitchen to hear it when it goes off, it is not loud enough to be heard all over a house or large apartment.

Noise

I just purchased this microwave. It is quite noisy and rattles when it starts up. Is this normal??
The magnetron that generates the microwaves in ANY microwave oven is always going to generate sound. The rattle is something else, perhaps the motor for rotation platter is faulty. My unit works great and has no rattle at start up or even later. You might want to get it exchanged.
