      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    From the wildly popular cartoon on Nickelodeon comes The Wild Thornberrys Movie, a story about a family who gets to travel the world for Nigel Thornberry's nature show. The youngest daughter, Eliza, possesses the ability to talk to animals...and she will need to use her secret gift to save the animals on this trip when some greedy poachers move in and steal a cheetah cub. With oldest daughter Deborah, wild baby brother Donnie, and the kids' grandmumsy along for the ride, this will be one unforgettable trip. Features the Paul Simon song "Father And Daughter."

    Reason #106 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    No one covers the issues in more detail than Widescreen Review. No one else has the breadth and depth of different review systems on which to base transfer quality opinions. Gary Reber has given more editorial space to important Home Theatre trends and technologies than anyone in the industry, AND he has Joe Kane and Greg Rogers on his staff as advisors/columnists. 'Nuff said.
