      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Based upon Capcom

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 Superbit DVD exhibits subtle improvements over the nicely rendered previously released DVD. Images can be sharp and finely detailed, though sometimes seeming softly focused. The Umbrella Corporation digital graphics have finer edges than the non-Superbit title. Colors are rich and nicely balanced, with accurate fleshtones and deep blacks. Contrast is nicely rendered and, with much of the picture taking place in dimly lit settings, shadow delineation is suitable for the storytelling. There is some edge enhancement noticed, and pixelization is occasionally detected. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The DVD features the the same Dolby
