      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    A junior high Sleepover turns rambunctious when a scavenger hunt sends four girls out on the town. The competition: the infamous and extremely bitchy

    DVD Picture:
    A perfectly colorful picture for a lighthearted teeny-bopper comedy, the anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD looks great. Colors are well balanced, with hot pinks, bold blues, rich reds, and deep blacks. Images are sharp and detailed, with nicely rendered contrast and shadow delineation. Aside from some pixelization, there is little to complain about with this picture. Edge enhancement is not a problem and the picture is quite clean throughout. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    This Dolby

    Reason #105 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Since Issue 5 (my first), I focused on reviews of Laser Discs and now DVDs, and From The Editor's Couch. Also, WSR has a lot of punch in the new equipment features. The technical essays have been superb! My home theatre setup depended (and still depends) on knowledge gained from WSR. WSR has become the media reference for me with regard to picture and sound quality assurance in display equipment and widescreen entertainment (movies, music events, and documentaries). I still do not have Issues 1 through 4 or the Premiere Special Edition of WSR and hope you put them on the subscribers' site eventually, so that I can giggle at some of the early typos and slips (if you leave them in). However, I'm sure that the early editions make for interesting historical reading as well, because I believe WSR has moved the display industry forward through the pushing the envelope attitude of Gary Reber. Carry on.
