Still a classic, still holds up
on June 30, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
While the technology behind the animation has certainly aged, the style of this movie is timeless, and good storytelling always holds true. Despite the deluge of superhero movies that have come out since this movie was released, this still holds up extremely well. The 4K transfer is decent, though mastered from a 2K source, it's not as good as it could be. The disappointment is the audio mix on the 4K disc, which loses a lot of the bombastic bass of the mix from the original included blu-ray disc, in favor of a less aggressive overall tone. In that respect, the blu-ray is superior. This includes all of the special features from the previous blu-ray/dvd releases, as this set includes a 4K disc, and both blu-ray discs.

A stunning revitalization
on April 27, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
God of War takes a character that was hard to relate to in Kratos, and takes a fresh approach to the character. A new setting, a new pantheon, and a new dynamic for the series helps breathe life and depth into Kratos. This game is gorgeous, and fun to play. The combat has weight and is satisfying to execute, and the story is intriguing, and worth savoring. The game is meaty, with plenty of open areas and side activities to help broaden the experience, without feeling like filler. While having played the rest of the series has added benefits to understanding the tragic history of the character, this game also works as a fresh start for newcomers, and easily sits with Horizon, and Uncharted 4/The Lost Legacy as a top tier, must have PS4 game.

Worth it for the BTS features alone
on April 6, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm admittedly not the Star Wars fan in this household, but I've enjoyed these recent films well enough. But as far as this blu-ray goes the special features are of particular interest to me. First off, a gag reel for Star Wars is welcome, the last movie didn't have one that I can recall, but there is a feature length BTS documentary that is fascinating, even if you're not a fan of Star Wars but simply love the film making process. On top of that, the audio/visual quality is another top tier Disney release.

A steal at this price, no pun intended
on April 6, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
This recent release of Heat on Blu-ray is easily the most comprehensive release so far, with an excellent transfer and a satisfying offering of bonus content. At the sub $10 price point this is a classic, well made film anyone should have in their collection.

A surprise
on April 6, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
On paper, the idea of Disney doing live action adaptations of some of the classics wasn't very appealing. Maleficent tested the waters and didn't really land for me, but then Cinderella came along and for some reason just worked, and every one of these movies since has worked for me. There's just something pleasant about this movie, the casting is great, and the costuming is awesome, which makes it surprising that the costuming in Beauty and the Beast was kind of disappointing.
The bluray has a decent selection of special features, including the Frozen Fever short that accompanied it in theaters. The video and audio quality is excellent.

A double length cord is always welcome
on March 30, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
This cord offers the same functionality as the lightning to USB cables that come with almost any apple product, but with a longer cord. I'm sure it still has the same susceptibility to wear and tear, but it functions as intended.

A unique experience worth your time
on March 30, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
A Way Out is something special. It's not a perfect game with a perfect story, but the experience it offers, and the co-op game play far outweigh the flaws. It doesn't overstay it's welcome, and is a fun ride from start to finish. The game also offers plenty flexibility to find a co-op partner. You can play on the couch with split screen, or online. And the best part is, even online, only one of you needs to have the game, as your partner can still connect with you via an app downloadable from the PS Store. Keep in mind that there is NO WAY to play this single player.

A creepy classic
on March 16, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
I remember being too scared to sit through this movie as a kid, but now I'm able to appreciate it for the marvel of practical set design and puppetry it is. This is a really incredible restoration as well, with a good offering of special features and BTS extras.

Shane Black continues to shine
on March 16, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
Shane Black makes some of my favorite buddy movies, and I think this one stands right up with Kiss Kiss Bang Bang as a top. Ryan Gosling in particular is great. This blu ray has great quality but skimps on the special features. How does this movie not at least have a gag reel?

The best of the Thor series so far
on March 16, 2018
Posted by: RatedG
Verified Purchase:Yes
or at least my favorite. Thor Ragnarok is the more colorful and humorous of the trilogy, finding a tone between Guardians of the Galaxy's humorous sci-fi and the other Thor movies' fantasy elements, it's easily the most entertaining of the three. The blu-ray has exceptional picture and sound quality, with the colors immediately standing out in the first scene of the film. The special features are pretty decent, with Taika Waititi's commentary being a stand out for me.
