Best of the Best
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In my opinion Stanley Kubrick is the best director of film that ever lived. His movies were a true experience and can be thoroughly enjoyed again and again not only because they are so beautifully crafted in every single frame but also cause there is so much to dissect in these deeply layered movies that there's no way you could ever see everything in one viewing. It doesn't help that most of us watching aren't certifiable geniuses like him but we can still enjoy his movies nonetheless. The 3 films in this box set (2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange and The Shining) are 3 of his most well known works and they don't disappoint in displaying that genius. Even, The Shining, which was reviled by most of Stephen King's following (as well as King himself) is a masterpiece especially if you're coming into it as a blank slate or at least an open mind. The clear vision he had coming into each of these three films is unmistakable and executed flawlessly not to mention filled with bravura performances by all three casts. These are symphony masterpieces created by the greatest composer of film in the history of film. Sit back and immerse yourself in the experience again and again and again...

I Love Stanley Kubrick and Such a Bargain Price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the movie director Stanley Kubrick and his work for 4 decades now. As a child actor, I heard about auditions for the role of Danny Torrance in The Shining in 1979. I have the sequel film Doctor Sleep so I am going to watch them in order. A bit of cultural binge viewing. As an astronomy geek, I adore 2001: A Space Odyssey which also covers primatology matters in the opening sequence, after the musical fanfare. And A Clockwork Orange with its Orwellian overtones always provides, but the sex assault scenes are awful. I cannot believe three such classics for like 12 dollars or something. Amazing Best Buy. Thank you.

Best Deal For These Films!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Have been Trying to Watch 2001 Space Odyssey for a while, But Was not willing to Pay the Prices I Have seen for It. The Shining Is One I needed For My Steven King Films, And A Clock work Orange Is Just to strange a Film for me to be Willing to Purchase Alone. Not Only dose This Bundle make each Film Less than $5.00, But It is ALSO separate Disks for Each film, Complete with their Standard Special Features. Meaning I can Make Jackets for Each Individual, and Separate them Into there Respective Categorys to integrate Into my various Collections. Absoloutly worth the Price.

This is funny, embarrassing... & a lesson for all
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I will stop grumbling about prompts to write reviews after looking at this email and saying out loud, "I didn't buy Blu-ray. I can't play them!" I then got up to confirm that belief and discovered that Best Buy was RIGHT. I already own one of the movies, but was so excited to find three CLASSIC Kubrick films in one box that I didn't notice someone had set it down in the wrong section! Sure hope it's available in standard DVD format when I return it. Hmm.... I assume I can return/exchange it; I didn't have time to watch a movie so it remains unopened. Reminder: confirm the disc you are drooling over is a format your equipment will play!

Three Amazing Movies!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Getting three Stanley Kubrick classics--2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, and The Shining--gives you something for nearly every kind of movie-viewer. Okay...hardcore Action and Rom-Com lovers need to go elsewhere for fun. These are three classic films that shaped the movies we watch today. 2001 has affected nearly every sci-fi movie of the past few decades. My favorite of the three is The Shining (even if Stephen King hates it). You'll never look at Jack Nicholson the same way. But a close second is A Clockwork Orange, which shows how our innate inhumanity can't be cured with science.

3 Great Kubrick Classics
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.2001: A Space Odyssey is considered to be the greatest Sc-Fi film ever made! Even when you watch it now on a large flatscreen TV it still looks magnificent! An alien presence appears to our very distant ape-ancestry in the form of a black monolith. It influences them to change and gives them a push towards the future to become us. Another black monolith is found on the moon which begins a transformative journey of discovery all the way to Jupiter!
