Wont play the movie hancock

if the dvd is blu-ray then your dvd player should be blu-ray too if its not it will not play it and you will have to get a blu-ray dvd plater to play it

Ok EVERYONE. After emailing Sony Pictures, I took the second copy back to Fred Meyers put it in their active BluRay display player. I have a Sony BDP-S300 right at a year from purchase, they had a Sony BDP-S350 and my disk that did not work - played fine even past the eagle. I came home Downloaded and installed a Firmware update. Now my copy of Hancock that did not work works fine.. The simple answer is Update your Firmware

I went to Best Buy to test my theory of why Blue-ray players do not play Hancock, Iron Man, and many others. I posted the solution I found with the Dell Computer yesterday so I wanted to clarify if the same was true for HP and other systems. What I found was that the mouse was inactive and only the arrow keys worked on other computer systems with Windows Vista, I wasn't able to test XP. The computer staff at the store had no clue of the solution, but many had heard of disgruntled Blue-ray customers. When I tried the discs on a stand alone Blue-ray player the functionality was a little better but still not user friendly. The employees at the store were not surprised and didn't seem to mind that $30 Blue-ray movies were not easy to play on many systems. I'm holding off on further disc purchases and I'm not buying another Blue-ray player until this issue has been resolved. 

If you have a Sony BDP-S1 I would try to upgrade the firmware using the information here. Sony have improve disk compatability in the recently released firmware
