DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 2.40:1 DVD exhibits a picture that is sharp and detailed, with nicely rendered textures and clarity. Colors are well balanced and fully saturated, with natural fleshtones, rich hues, and deep blacks. Contrast and shadow delineation are also very nicely rendered. There is some minor pixelization noticed, causing the breakup of finer details. Edge enhancement, however, can be a distraction at times. (Suzanne Hodges)
