Chef - Movie Review

Timing

I recently watched this movie and found it relevant to my life now. With so many changes in the world, how does one move forward. This movie shows how a man was forced into change and how it made his life happier. I think about this a lot with changes that have happened in my life in the past few years such as divorce, career changes, and the unknown of what is to come. This movie shows that sometimes life changes you to make you happier. I hope this holds true with what may come in my life.

Review

Jon Favreau leads an all-star cast including Sofia Vergara, John Leguizamo, Dustin Hoffman, Oliver Platt, Robert Downey Jr, ad Scarlett Johansson. Everyone delivers a performance to remember. It is a great movie that is relevant today about moving forward when your life plans change. I enjoyed this movie immensely and highly recommend it for anyone experiencing change in their life who now can chase their dream that they didn't know they were after.

Rating

I would give this movie a low UHD rating. This movie is worth adding to your collection under $10. I was able get my HD copy for $2 using Vudu's disc to digital. It did cost me a little more as the Blu-ray was used from Family Video, but my cost was well under $10 for the entire process.

Digital Ownership

 What Is? With the digital revolution, digital media has been sweeping the world. My memory of digital media was back with iTunes in 2001. There you could download music with a touch of a button from an actual retailer vs illegally with the bonus of malware to your computer. I actually had digital music from iTunes before I had a iPod or iPhone to play it on. In 2005, Apple released their video iPod and started to "sell" digital TV and movies. I am not saying Apple was the foundation for the digital revolution but it was my first positive experience with digital media. My first digital video purchase was the unaired Aquaman TV pilot as it was the only place to get it. What does purchasing something digitally really mean though? Apple and Amazon are coming under class-action lawsuits for their digital ownership definition of "buy" an item. The lawsuit stems from the fine print where retailers cannot guarantee you own the product but merely have unlimited streaming. T...

Protecting Your Online Collection

 Protecting Your Collection In this time of cyber crime, you want to protect your investment of digital movies. I will be focusing this page on the primary retailers that connect with Movies Anywhere. At the time of this post, I am only aware of Google and iTunes are the only two retailers that offer secondary authentication. Technically, Amazon offers a secondary authentication with the use of a pin for digital purchases. I highly recommend you use these security feature provided by Amazon, Google, and iTunes. This provides great protection for your collection and any saved credit card information that you have with the retailer. I would not advise keeping your credit card information with a online retailer but I understand it's convenience. With that said, I will point out that users have the ability to removed their credit card information from Amazon, FandangoNow, Google, iTunes (provided you are not using Family Sharing), and Microsoft. This is convenient when one of the retai...

Captain Marvel - Movie Review

Digital Sales With the release of Captain Marvel, many retailers are offering several of the Marvel movies for $15 each. I was planning to talk about all the digital sales on Fridays but my followers are few and sales change every week. So I have decided to change things up a little bit again. I will keep Tuesdays for new and early access movies along with where to get them but I have decided to make Friday's movie reviews. I would enjoy any following this site to post comments on potential movies they would like reviewed. Marvel Releases Dates I want to say Marvel has been releasing movies to coincide with event celebrations. Last year, Black Panther came out in February. This was one of the first time a Marvel movie came out in February. Did anyone think this was due to February being Black History Month? If not, I bet you are thinking about it now. Why do I mention this? Captain Marvel is the first Marvel movie with a female lead. They couldn't let DC get away with...
