I'm trying to catch my wife up on movies she's missed. Sat night it was " The Equalizer ", with Denzel Washington. Last night it was " John Wick " on 4K.

Watched " Donnie Darko " - the director's cut last night ( my wife's pick ). Never watched the director's cut before. I may like it better. Great movie, again !

I really enjoy that movie too. Great picture and sound. You ever watch the extras ? Cool that they built a full size model of the ship !

Yeah, I felt the same way.  To me, they did a good job of setting up the individual runs of violence.  (Though my wife didn't agree -- liked the movies but thought it was non-stop violence.  I thought it was an amazing mix of violence with the right portion of "slow down, catch your breath".  PQ was great and sound absolutely awesome! 

BTW, did I mention it was violent?

Keanu Reeves spent a lot of actual range time shooting 3 gun tactical courses prior to this film - it certainly showed in the action set pieces. Amazing choreography and stunt work. Realistic firearm handling and reloading. My wife thought the first one was " just a shoot 'em up " and didn't join me watching it. She does like " Eastern Promises " and " The Equalizer ", so go figure !

Watched John Wick 2 last night. 4K video quality on this disc was really good and the sound track had great dynamics. Since I was watching this one alone, I ran it near reference level. Some of the gun shots sounded a lot like actual gunshots.

I was worried I might get a visit from the police when I watched it at 11PM.  One night I am going to walk outside my house while this disc is playing to hear what it sounds like from there.

I did that last week after watching " Mad Max : Fury Road " cranked pretty loud. We live in an area with 1/4 - 1/3 acre lots, so while I could hear it, I've never had anyone notice ( or complain ). Helps to have 2 x 6 construction throughout our house !
