Wasn't expecting this good

The movie was packed with jaw dropping, eye popping action from beginning to end. The drama had a mix of sadness, comedy and seriousness which were all mixed in together so beautifully to give a consistency to keep the viewer starring at the screen and being involved in the movie rather than daydreaming about other things.

In my honest opinion I would say that it is the best Fast & Furious movie to date.

Loved it

I loved my dinner here :) I found street parking, it's in a quaint little residential area. The service and ambiance were really cozy and inviting.

Great effects

All I can say is that I was extremely impressed with this film. Based on the trailers, I was expecting this film to be mediocre, I was wrong. In my opinion, for a superhero film to work, it all narrows down to special effects and the acting. For this movie, both are great. This movie may not have been as good as X-men: First Class or The Dark Knight, but it is an above average superhero movie. Ryan Reynolds is good as always and Mark Strong delivered a strong performance as well. This movie is heavy on special effects and they are SPECTACULAR. The dialogue is nothing new but don't expect it to be excellent given the fact that its a superhero movie. Overall, this movie was very well done and I liked it a whole lot more than I thought it would.

Pleased with the show

I've been a fan of George R.R. Martin's novels for years, so I was madly excited for this show and I'm pleased to say that it didn't disappoint me.

The casting was perfect for major and minor characters alike, and seeing Westeros and Essos come to life was truly awesome. The set design, costuming, cinematography, etc. was all wonderful.

The writers did a great job overall of compressing GRRM's massive novel into a gripping and coherent show. Like any long time fan, I have a few minor gripes, of which the most significant is the changes to Daenarys's storyline, which made the development of her relationship with Khal Drogo less realistic and her storyline in general feel rushed. Her final scene was everything I hoped it would be, though.

Overall, I couldn't have been more pleased with the show. I can't wait for season two!

Wonderfull

I bought this after returning a Sony Home theater, not knowing what to expect. I read reviews on other Samsung Home Theater Systems and most of them got poor reviews. So I was very leery about buying this. Well I was pleasantly surprised. This was a lot better than expected. The size of the speakers are very deceiving. As small as they are, they still produce a wonderful sound. The system definitely sounded better once i got it home than it did in the store. This system sets up very easily. The only downfall is the length of speaker wire for the rear speakers. As with any system the wires just aren't long enough. And they have special connectors that plug into the back of the system so I had to cut and splice the wire to make them longer. But other than that this system is wonderfull!

Great room and stay at Encore

The rooms are spacious (I'd say approx. 650 sq. ft) with expansive windows, remote controlled drapes, and a twirling flat screen TV so you can watch in the livingroom or your bedroom. Even the bathroom is huge. The bed is super soft and comfy. And don't even get me started on the buffet. There are food stations representing every corner of the world. I absolutely loved my stay here.

Great if you can afford it!

Each room has a couch and is large enough to ease your anxiety about living out of a suitcase. The staff is super helpful and the pools are nice, classy, and fun. Encore is a bit smaller than the Wynn, but my experience has been that it is a younger crowd. The hotel has two really popular night clubs, XS and Surrender, and the newest/hottest day club, Encore Beach Club. I've been to all three clubs and most of the restaurants, and honestly, I will never stay anywhere else if I can help it!

Overrated

One of the most overrated Hollywood stars ever. Lookswise she doesn't light my candle thanks to the overinflated lips and all those tatts but in an age where most A listers are pretty ordinary looking I guess she stands out...slightly.

Surprised me

This guy is a good actor!! I wish he would get more film/TV roles as he really surprised me with his acting chops. It came about accidentally, was a rainy day, looking for something entertaining to watch and found a sci fi movie called "Serenity", definitely a fun movie to watch. I hope he gets some great roles in the future and gets the credit I think he deserves for being a good actor
