Review :
beautiful visuals. And gradually
The show started off strong -- intriguing plot, beautiful visuals. And gradually, as the season went on, the plot started going to shambles. Every episode was packed with the most ridiculous surprises that dissolved the realism of the characters and any chance at a deeper meaning. I should have seen it coming that the ending would be such an utter letdown. I'm sorry I watched this show.

Strange Story
The plot is fresh and original. I enjoyed the mystery, but I kept getting lost. Why would a Rabbi allow a crazy gentile preacher to raise a Jewish boy? It seemed implausible, but perhaps they will make this clear in later episodes. The story moved along well and was entertaining.

Spoiler Alert.

Their goal is to communicate with God. Huh? Wouldn't he be outraged when he found out what they had been doing? God's not some amoral force to be used by ruthless men. I thought we settled this with "Indiana Jones", but I guess not.

Worst finale EVER! (Spoilers)
I really loved this show. I thought it was well thought out, well written, compelling. Then, the final episode ruined it for me.

1. The "Hey, look over there," ending was lame. Christians, Jews, and the Moriahs (?) planned this event for more than 13 years and they are distracted by a little earthquake. They were planning ARMAGEDDON! I've never experienced the end of the world before but I would imagine that there would be more than a little 2.5 earthquake. You had one job: to kill the red heifer. You look out the window and someone steals your calf? Your plan wasn't so great if a little tremor distracted you.

2. Pastor Billingsly was killed by an evil cashew? Really? That was soooooooo lame I was literally laughing at the TV. The writers got paid for that? They need to pay me for making me watch that foolishness.

3. Emma/Rebecca falls in love Peter? She plans and schemes this entire thing. She changes her identity for more than...

Review :
Release price is way too high
The fact that another season is coming out in Blu-ray is great. The problem is that Paramount/CBS is releasing these with super high prices. While plenty of people say you can just wait and they'll eventually come down in price (like season 1 did) and that is true, the problem is that if they keep releasing these with high prices and people keep waiting a year to buy, they may eventually stop releasing for perceived lack of demand. Plenty of people are already nervous that this is what's happened with Andy Griffith since both Lucy and Griffith S1 blu's were released at the same time and now there's only notice of Lucy S2. They may have wrongly assumed that just because people didn't want to buy Andy Griffith S1 for a hundred bucks that there's no demand, when really there is demand, just at a reasonable price-point like 30-35 dollars. Over a hundred dollars for one season of Lucy on Blu-ray, when you can buy the entire series for that price on DVD with LOADS of special features...
Awesome, as expected.
People, PLEASE stop driving the review rating down on this wonderful product based solely on price. As another reviewer mentioned, the cost involved in doing a frame by frame restoration of 60+ year old films has to be through the roof. CBS is sparing no expense in putting these superb "Ultimate Seasons" together. What do you all expect the price to be, 20 bucks? If it's out of your price range, either don't buy it, or wait about a year until the price drops substantially.

Now, as for the product itself, I received my "Ultimate Season 2" on it's release date, 8/4/15. I'm about 6 episodes in, and so far season 2 is just as gorgeous as season 1. Stunning picture quality. The bonus features are great as well. I'm a Lucy fanatic, but I've never seen "The I Love Lucy Movie" before. So glad that they included it in the bonus features. The "Job Switching" episode with audio commentary was really cool too. Thomas J. Watson is the man! He's doing an...

They will continue to master in HD and have the added bonus of us all buying the series again on blu ray. It's a win-win situation. They WILL release all seasons.

Review :
How will they do it?
No gratuitous sex or graphic nudity and no vacuous blondes or muscle bound heroes with cringe-worthy dialogue. The plots in this show are intriguing. The actors are entertaining and you care about what happens to their characters.

I confess I would never have thought Jim Caviezel (John) and Michael Emerson (Harold) would make effective protagonists in a show like this, but what a great combination they are. One of those "lightening in a bottle" casting decisions you're so glad has been made whether it was on purpose or accidental or a little of both. Happily their satellite characters are as entertaining a group as you'll find, each with his/her own set of quirks. All together, this ensemble cast takes you from humor through great sadness. Better yet the show has wonderfully interesting villains. They seem to range from shades of mildly bad to "I want to see this guy get squashed like a bug" evil.

In the end the "good" guys...

I wasn't sure if i'd like this, but i started watching and then binge watched! I don't usually do that. Then after i finished season 1 I had to have them all so anxiously awaiting this one.

All the excitement, edge of seat, you will need!
This is the only TV show that I have the first 3 seasons and will definitely buy this 4th season. Love the characters, even Root, especially love the story line. This story line literally runs parallel with how things appear in society. Although this is fiction; it does make you wonder.

Description :

Based on Susanna Clarke s award-winning novel, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell reveals mysterious secrets and scandalous thrills between the two men destined to be England s greatest magicians. Spend some time with this diabolical duo in the fantasy story adored by fans and critics alike. Featuring Tony Award-nominee Bertie Carvel (Matilda the Musical) as Jonathan Strange and Eddie Marsan (Sherlock Holmes) as his arch-rival magician Mr. Norrell, the clash between these two British magicians is about to become a dangerous duel of the dark arts where, in the midst of the Napoleonic wars, the real battle is between their oversized egos.


Review :
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell is a triumph in its transfer to the screen
Having watched the high-definition version of the long-awaited seven part serialization of the Susanna Clarke novel about the return of magic to Napoleonic-era England after a 300 year long absence, it is gratifying to say that the series more than does the book justice. Those of us who loved the novel were somewhat worried that no single film could approach its richness of characterization and period detail, and certainly no two or three hour film could. But a seven part serialization with production values as high as any I've ever seen, a recreation of the era that is so lovingly detailed you would think that you were watching a documentary rather than a drama, and acting so spot-on that the characters seem to have literally leapt off the page and on to the screen, give this series all of the life that made the novel so remarkable. Not since the 1995 Colin Firth Pride and Prejudice has there been a small-screen version of a celebrated novel as brilliant as this one...
Magic is returned to England...and television.
I have not loved a TV show as thoroughly and completely without complaint since Firefly. An absolutely astounding bit of entertainment in its own right, it also has the distinction of being one of the purest adaptations in book-to-television or book-to-film history. I can't think of an adaptation this faithful since the Megan Follows-led Anne of Green Gables.

I cannot possibly recommend it enough. I intend to buy multiple copies and give them away as gifts. Even to people I don't like that much.

So absolutely worth your time.

An extraordinary production
I can make no comparisons to the book since I've not read very far in it yet, but perhaps that's a good thing. Every work of art must be it's own thing, borrowing, certainly, inspired by other things, certainly, but copying nothing. And honestly I have never seen anything quite like Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.

On the surface it's a tale about how magic re-enters the world. But if that was the only thing it was about, it would almost certainly not be as rich and intriguing as it is. Magic isn't really the central focus here. Rather, what we see is the politics of magic (and life), the tension between different ideologies with Norrell upholding the idea of practical, disciplined, "respectable" magic, and Strange seeking the old, wild magic of the Raven King. Neither sees that the two are not mutually exclusive.

Everything about this production is perfect. The performances are superb, the sets and costumes spot on period pieces with just enough...

Review :
One Of The Best New TV Shows In Years!
Wow, The Knick is just on another level, and It's by far one of the best new TV shows in years! Each episode feels exciting, special and leaves you wanting more every time. The Knick is the story of Doctor John Thackery, a surgeon in the early 1900s who is a pioneer in his field with a little bit of a cocaine problem. The Knick is truly special, and will not disappoint.

The Knick
Terrific, tense, and totally groundbreaking, showcasing some of the bloodiest operation scenes I’ve ever seen and probably ever filmed, The Knick is one of the best shows on television or any medium for that matter, period. Series creators Jack Amiel and Michael Begler deserve a round of applause. These two do most of the writing for the show leading to episodes that are fantastically entertaining and hypnotic in a way that you can’t take your eyes off the screen. The same could be said for Clive Owen. He is brilliantly haunting as Dr. John W. Thackery in one of the best performances of his career. The direction by Steven Soderbergh is sublime, making every episode worth watching and always wanting to see more. The score contributes to the hypnotic, haunting quality of the Knick with electronic beats that elevate the scene into a mixture of nearly unbearable tension and intrigue. I’ve seen seven of the ten episodes so far, and the show has just peaked in it seventh...
Please watch The Knick!
The Knick has become one of my favorite television series, and Season 2 will be must-watch TV for me. Set in the Knickerbocker Hospital of in New York City in the early 1900's, The Knick explores several social and public health issues by examining the interactions in this central location. Dr. John Thackery, played by Clive Owen, battles drug addiction and ego as he strives to become one of the most renowned surgeons of his time. Dr. Algernon Edwards, a black physician portrayed by Andre Holland, also strives for success in medicine but constantly battles prejudice and oppression as a black man in America. Several other interesting characters struggle through everyday life at the Knick.

While the individual characters are very interesting, what I found to be fascinating was the The Knick's portrayal of medical practices at the turn of the 20th Century. Doctors perform surgeries on patients without gloves. Liquid cocaine, along with ether, are chosen as analgesics for...

No gratuitous sex or graphic nudity and no vacuous blondes or muscle bound heroes with cringe-worthy dialogue. The plots in this show are intriguing. The actors are entertaining and you care about what happens to their characters.

I confess I would never have thought Jim Caviezel (John) and Michael Emerson (Harold) would make effective protagonists in a show like this, but what a great combination they are. One of those "lightening in a bottle" casting decisions you're so glad has been made whether it was on purpose or accidental or a little of both. Happily their satellite characters are as entertaining a group as you'll find, each with his/her own set of quirks. All together, this ensemble cast takes you from humor through great sadness. Better yet the show has wonderfully interesting villains. They seem to range from shades of mildly bad to "I want to see this guy get squashed like a bug" evil.

In the end the "good" guys...

I wasn't sure if i'd like this, but i started watching and then binge watched! I don't usually do that. Then after i finished season 1 I had to have them all so anxiously awaiting this one.

All the excitement, edge of seat, you will need!
This is the only TV show that I have the first 3 seasons and will definitely buy this 4th season. Love the characters, even Root, especially love the story line. This story line literally runs parallel with how things appear in society. Although this is fiction; it does make you wonder.

Five Stars
Episode 4 is over a day late, I'm going through withdrawal!

Great show!
Love the series, but where the heck is episode #4? It's over a day late and hubby is getting restless.

Foolish payin for streaming video
Purchasing this video to stream each week. Its 3 pm, the episode aired yesterday on AMC. Called customer service twice. Its kinda tough to ask questions and hear answers from a customer service rep WHO DOESNT SPEAK ENGLISH! For now at least, in the United States most of us speak English. Soon SPANISH, however, if I cant watch my tv show I paid for, I can purchase this somewhere else. DONT PAY IN ADVANCE FOR A SEASON! I feel like a FOOL, paying for this service.

Strike Back: The Complete Third Season [Blu-ray] + Digital HD Get Rabate

Rating : 4.9
Buyer Review : 32

Description :

Cinemax's first scripted primetime drama series returns. A high-octane, globe-spanning thriller, Strike Back focuses on two members of Section 20, a secret British anti-terrorist organization: Michael Stonebridge (Philip Winchester), a consummate British soldier still struggling to overcome tragedy in his life, and Damien Scott (Sullivan Stapleton), a disgraced U.S. Delta Force operative who has found redemption with S-20. In Season 3, the series will have a true global canvas, opening in Colombia - with parallel missions in Beirut, Budapest, Russia, and Germany - and following a trail of drug money that is funding terrorists in the Middle East.


Review :
"I'm a soldier, kid. I know pain."
"I can't see where you're comin' from
But I know just what you're runnin' from:
And what matters ain't the who's baddest but
The ones who stop you fallin' from your ladder."

I hear the cool-ass strains of The Heavy's "Short Change Hero" and I know it's time for another season of Strike Back. For the completists, Season 3 is known in the United Kingdom as Strike Back: Shadow Warfare. To them British viewers, this Season 3 is actually Season 4 (or Series 4). Cinemax doesn't count the actual first season (that starred Richard Armitage) because the cable network didn't get involved with co-producing the show until Series 2 (which was then promptly re-labeled as Season 1).

Section 20, that secretive branch of the British Defense Intelligence Service, never rests, even if its top two field agents occasionally do. Sgt. Michael Stonebridge (Philip Winchester, a Yank actor posing as a Brit) and Sgt. Damian Scott (Sullivan Stapleton, an Aussie posing as a...
Back on Track
I liked season one pretty much but season two seemed to drop off in the story department. Things were stretched pretty thin and were fleshed out with more action. Season three has gotten the series back on track.

Here's the scoop. A mid-eastern terrorist group has been working on a weapons version of smallpox. They have a team in place that will release this in various places and some huge number of people. So....it's up to section 20 to thwart the effort.

This has all the the earmarks of the first two season. Scott and Stonebridge in dicey situations. Down to the second saves. Heavy duty sex/nudity and Scott dropping the F bomb pretty much all the time. But here the plot is much more intricate. The Kamali character is still a mystery. Whose side is he on? And every time the near objective is close at hand, something (or someone) puts it out of reach so, of course, it will come down to a tight finish.

The plot moves at an even pace. The action scenes...
Strike Back Seaon 3
I have seen episodes on HBO and own seasons 1 and 2 and it is really an awesome series. When I first started viewing season one I had to buy it and season 2 and am waiting not patiently for the 3rd season. I have hundreds of DVD's but this show is my favorite of all. It is full of action, the scene locations are excellent, the actors are excellent and there are never a dull moment. I was and am very impressed with the story lines, the combat scenes and the detail used in armament and life like fire fights and the quality used in making the show. Absolutely well done and I give it 5 stars because I cannot rate it higher. I hope this review is helpful to you.

Rating : 4.8


Description :

Two-time Critics Choice Award-winner Tatiana Maslany returns in the pulse-racing third season of Orphan Black. After the shocking discovery of Project Castor, Sarah and her sister clones are left to battle the top-secret military project producing these lethal male clones. At the same time, Sarah tries to track down her missing twin Helena and an ailing Cosima searches for the key to the synthetic sequences that may keep them all alive. But how far are they willing to go to protect each other and their families, and who can they really trust? Orphan Black is back with more adrenaline-charged action, intrigue and suspense than ever before!


Review :
In for the long haul.
"Orphan Black is a show that I would be unlikely to watch. Not my choice of viewing fare". These were my thoughts when the BBCA started promoting OB for the first season. I was running out of shows I do enjoy, and thought I'd just take a chance, step outside my viewing comfort zone and give OB a try. Major score on my part. The show has a nice little plot line that could quickly grow stale if mishandled. The direction, filming and writing have been outstanding from the start. There's no notable difference from episode 1, season 1 than the end of season 2. The cast? I'm sure many have read the reviews, the feedback on the cast and if you think it's all media hype, you're mistaken. And yes, Tatiana Maslany is everything she's stated to be and more. How in the world she's not been nominated for an Emmy is beyond me but her fans and the fans of Orphan Black are all she really needs. She'll do more in the future but please, let's not get too far ahead. We need many more seasons of...
I love the story
I love the story, the suspense, the drama, the action, and the fact that so many new and important events take place in each episode. You never get bored. The actress that plays all the characters is very versatile. As intense as the series is, there are many entertaining things that happen as well. I have found myself laughing when I should have been covering my eyes and screaming. I really like Helena. She is my favorite. An unpredictable lunatic who will capture your heart. I would like to say a lot more, but I don't want to spoil it for you. I can only assure you, that you will like it so much that hours will fly while you watch it, and you won't even realize it.

The best show you aren't, but should be, watching!
I cannot wait for Season Three to start! My Mom introduced me to this show last March. She had downloaded them onto my Kindle and told me to watch. And I watched, for seven and a half hours straight. The first time. I watched the first season four times in the two weeks before the second season started. It's that good. Tatiana Maslany is amazing as Sarah, Cosima, Helena, Allison, Beth, Rachel, Katya, Jennifer, etc. (Don't worry, you won't have to keep up with all of those characters!) Before she opens her mouth you can tell which of the characters she's channeling, not because of the different hairstyles or clothes, but because she's made them each a different woman. When I watch the show, it's so easy to believe I'm watching different actors playing different characters. When Allison steps in to help Sarah, by pretending she is Sarah, what you see is Allison pretending to be Sarah, not Tatiana being Sarah. The entire cast is brilliant, and they each hold their own against these crazy...

Review :
A very underated film. Hillarious!
People can piss and moan about plot and structure and character but when you've got a film like this one you should put those things aside and watch the movie for what it is, a very well done comedy about mistaken identity. The idea may be cliche but with Bill Murray's comic timing and prowess, it doesn't matter if the idea has been used a thousand times. This movie made me laugh from start to finish. Why? Because it is a comedy. If it makes you laugh, its doing its job. Murray delivered a hillarious performance as did Alfred Molina and the old British Bad guy(don't know his name). His brother played by Peter Gallagher was also surprisingly funny in his scenes. A comic gem that should be given more credit.

Lori Wants Her Letters........
This movie was a real surprise for me and my wife. We rent a lot of comedy movies and have passed this one up a couple of times thankfully having picked it out just recently and now intending to buy it.
Murray plays a very funny underachiever who just so happens to get involved with international intrigue, yet he thinks he is involved in a one night reality TV program. His straight side kick in the movie is Joanne Whalley playing Lori.
Murray is a crack up throughout the film thinking he is in a movie and thinking that all of the spies and diplomats are actors staying in character.....he is the funniest since Groundhog Day in this. I feel he is better than 'What About Bob.'
Peter Gallagher plays his brother and the funniest interaction he has is with an actual police officer where Gallagher, who funded Murray's intended movie romp, thinks he is talking with an actor and as he gets angrier he just gets funnier.
The movie has a lot of funny scenes that I laughed...
First of all...I loved it.
First of all....I loved it. Simply put, this film was great. Talk about a story that could have been based upon true life incidents is not what this film is about. This is comedy at its best. Bill Murray's character is a man who manages a Blockbuster-video store someplace in Iowa. Murray decides to take a vacation and visit his brother in London. His brother (Peter Gallagher) is entertaining some important clients that same evening and sends his brother (Murray) out to participate in this audience-interaction play involving spies called the `Theater of Life'. Well, as the play begins, Murray accidentally stumbles into a real-life spy drama and takes everything that happens next as if he is just acting in a play. The result is non-stop humor which leaves the audience busting up outloud. You don't have to love Bill Murray to love this film...he brings to the screen the best parts of his roles in "Scrooged", "Stripes", "Ground Hog Day" and...
