Sadly Avengers: Age of Ultron doesn’t live up to the original film, but for Marvel fans it is a solid effort with some good action sequences. Watching it in Digital HD is a treat and I recommend it for any Avengers fan.

Modern Family Physical Media: DVD Review

Modern Family: The Complete Sixth Season
