A road movie with a great new star

Newcomer Sasha Lane as Star...is the star...amazing performance. British filmmaker Andrea Arnold...making her first film outside the UK...shows she's got what it takes to be a great international director.

While a little more heavy pulling the heartstrings than the excellent book by M. L. Stedman that is based, this is a noble effort. The two leads Fassbender and Vikander really sell this one.

Real bummer that there is no blu-ray
on January 27, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Sad to see this inventive and genuinely entertaining show slipping in ratings and in threat of being cancelled. And the DVD only release is a big bummer for us fans. Season 4 is on now and you can catch up with this great show by watching season 3.

Witch worth revisiting...with modern tech
on January 27, 2017
Posted by: whalter58
Verified Purchase:Yes
Basically a modern version of original 'Project' but with new [and some old] tech recording equipment. The connection to first movie is made apparent in first scenes. There are some great scares and jolts through out but of particular note is some very [VERY!] claustrophobic scenes near the end that had me saying sotto voce to myself: 'It's only a movie, It's only a movie.'

Lean, mean and a little wiser, Bourne is back
on January 6, 2017
Posted by: whalter58
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bourne pursues his own origin and nothing is getting in his way...but that doesn't mean it'll be easy. Watch it first for just the sheer entertainment, then watch it a second time and pay attention to what cinematographer Barry Ackroyd and editor Christopher Rouse did under Paul Greengrass' awesome direction.

Perfect Voice casting and great 3D
on January 6, 2017
Posted by: whalter58
Verified Purchase:Yes
The animation is fun and inventive, the 3D really pops...but what really makes this one worth all the hype...is a great voice cast that has a great script to perform. Not a weak performance in this wild bunch of pets.

High marks for HIGH TENSION!

Director Fede Alvarez & Cinematographer Pedro Luque know exactly when to be quiet and when to cut the lights. Twists in the plot keep you from seeing what's coming. Looking forward to more from this film team.

Another 3D winner from Laika Studios!

Without watching this in 3D this is a stunning movie...but when you put that 3D disc in your player and slip on the specs...you suddenly realize that this is the way it should be seen. Great voice actors, cool story and stop-motion animation at the top of it's game. Great for kids and grownups!

While we're waiting for G.R.R.M to finish book 6!
on December 24, 2016
Posted by: whalter58
Verified Purchase:Yes
Much of this season contains story-lines that will figure in the novel The Winds of Winter that G.R.R.M is taking his own sweet time finishing [I'm not complaining George...keep typing...I'll be patient!]. Stuff from books 4 & 5 get shoehorned in here as well. A highlight episode 'The Battle of the [those without fathers]' {just keeping it clean for bestbuy.com...you know what I meant}

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.
