Title: You need the ultra HD BluRay player
Review: (This review is not a slight; itâs a heads up.) Well, the great news is I did receive what I ordered, and itâs always awesome when that happens. And this DVD pack comes with three discs, so chances are good that youâll be able to view one of them at home. I havenât bought physical DVDs in a while, so Iâm out of practice with how tech is changing. But basically my goal was to buy the extended cut of this movie; thatâs all I wanted. And I now have that extended cut⦠but it doesnât play on my device, because the extended cut is on a 4K ultra HD BluRay disc that only plays on an ultra HD BluRay player. So if you have one of those (and Iâm sure many people do), then youâre good. Iâm a Flintstone, so I unfortunately do not.To add hilarious salt to the wound, the regular BluRay disc in this DVD pack is *not* the extended cut. Itâs the theatrical version of the movie. So to recap⦠all I wanted was the extended cut. And for whatever reason, instead of making that extended cut available on all discs (and not requiring special devices to view them, which I discovered reading the tiny print that says âfor use only with ultra HD BluRay playerâ on the circular edge of the disc) (picture #2), I now have discs that I canât view until I buy a new player.Now, I do have the theatrical release, so thatâs something! And I do really like the movie. But itâs literally not why I made this purchase, especially since this can be bought on streaming (Prime, Apple TV, etc). I first saw this movie on Peacock during the summer Olympics and they only offered the extended cut, so I saw it that way first; watching the movie at a later date on a different streamer had me wondering why some scenes were missing. So anywho. $26 later, extended cut is only for the ultra HD BluRay folks. Just figured Iâd offer that heads up. Itâs a good movie and the discs arrived very quickly.Edited to add: I just checked the digital download and itâs also only the theatrical release. So thatâs just quite a bummer. Not sure why there were such huge letters on this case says extended release if three of the four discs/downloads donât have it.Edit: Ok Iâm going to return this, but I still think itâs great to purchase from this seller, so long as you have the right device to play it on!

Title: Entertaining Cheesiness in the best way possible.
Review: Cliche love story. Check. Gratuitous action. Check. This isn’t some epic Oscar hungry film that delves beyond the shallow end of the human psyche. It is simply a fun, warm, feel good action comedy that manages to get it right. What takes this movie way beyond what the filler elements that could add up to another mediocre action romance, is the heart of this movie. This movie is a love letter to the unrecognized hero stunt men and women. And aside from the corny lines and slight self deprecation that Ryan Gosling plays to perfection- just watch some of his interviews- this is the authenticity that makes this movie magical. Emily Blunt as usual puts in a fantastic performance that brings believability to a role that could easily be written off. The roles are stereotypes, but played with a cheeky wink and a nod of self realization that invites the viewer in on the jokes. The finale shows the comradery of the behind the scenes people who do whatever it takes to get the job done. Add a little nostalgia factor in some music and cameos, and top it with a chef’s kiss.

Title: Fun watch!
Review: I loved how Hilarious the film was! Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt are great together. My only drawback is a personal one. There a bit more colorful language than I was expecting. I feel like it could have still been great without it, but itâs still a great watch.

Title: Full of Action, Funny, and Lead Chemistry
Review: I love this movie so much that I saw The Fall Guy in the cinemas multiple times and pre-ordered the Blu-Ray as soon as it was listed. The movie is funny, full of action, and wonderful chemistry and banter between the two leads.This is Colt Seavers journey of redemption after an on set accident caused him to quit his life as well as his friends and new love, Jody. Colt is a guy you can cheer for as his love for movies, ability for the physical action, and overall sweetness shines through. Colt is given the opportunity to make it right with Jody and possibly earn his old life back as her replacement stuntman on her first movie that she is directing. The cinematography and editing capture the action sequences perfectly as Colt races against the clock to save Jody’s movie.The second chance romance between Colt and Jody feels effortless as Colt does his best to win her trust back and she wonders if she can count on him when things get hard. The key to this storyline working is when you realize that he is doing everything he is doing to help Jody, not just to win her back, but because he wants her to succeed. He might want her back, but he will happily do everything he is doing if he can help her finish her movie (her big break) and she still tells him to get lost. This small twist in motivation makes Colt all the more endearing.Movie fans will love all of the homages and link backs to previous films; blink and you’ll miss the sheer volume of references that blend cohesively into this new story.The extra-features are fun and you can also see the director’s cut of the film which has an additional action sequence and more time with the great supporting cast (their scenes are longer in this cut). But I do love the opening title sequence of the theatrical version with the cuts back and forth.

Title: Pure Fun
Review: I was pleasantly surprised how much pure fun this film turned out to be. The characters are slightly developed, not very deep, but Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt have nice chemistry when they’re on screen together. Gosling really is the heart of the film, and like the TV series it is loosely based on it pays tribute to the stunt men (and women) who make the stars look so good. I like this film.

Title: This movie was by far the best movie for 2024! Love the storyline and characters!
Review: Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt were phenomenal in this movie! It has comedy, drama, and a bit of mystery to it. I love the storyline! The soundtrack is also very good and really gets you into the movie. I’ve watched it several times, and love it each time I watch it!

Title:
Review: Una bellissima commedia (anche romantica) d’azione diretta dal grande David Leitch (John Wick, Atomica Bionda, Deadpool 2, Hobbs e Shaw, Bullet Train), libero adattamento della serie tv anni ’80 “Professione Pericolo”. La storia (in breve) segue uno stuntman, tornato su un set di un nuovo film dopo un brutto incidente, a lavorare con la sua ex che lo dirige. Rimarra invischiato in una strana faccenda riguardante la sparizione dell’attore principale della pellicola e si troverà in guai molto grossi. Storia coinvolgente, spassosa e ricca di trovate, personaggi carismatici, un cast fantastico (Ryan Gosling, Emily Blunt, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Winston Duke), scene d’azione eccezionali, grande ritmo e una stupenda colonna sonora. Divertimento assicurato. Oltre a questo è ovviamente un sincero e genuino tributo agli stuntman, perfetto visto che è diretto da un regista che l’ha fatto di professione. Edizione blu-ray di qualità , ricca di extra (commento audio, speciali, papere, scene alternative ecc.) Consigliatissimo a tutti.

Review: Llego muy bien protegido en el slipcover, el cual es de buena calidad y textura.La imagen es una buena mejora desde el disco blu-ray, mejorando en nitidez, saturación del color, brillo de los blancos y profundidad de los negros. El efecto HDR10 mejora este apartado.El audio en inglés Dolby Atmos es muy bueno y correcto, sin distorsiones en los diálogos o sonido ambiental.El código digital es válido solo para USA.
