      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    When the FBI receives a phone call threatening the city of Los Angeles with the release of a deadly virus, it is once again up to Jack Bauer (Sutherland) to get down to business. Negotiating with terrorists is not an option, especially when they are demanding the release of druglord Ramon Salazar. Bauer is going to have to get to the source of the virus, but it

    DVD Picture:

    Soundtrack:

    Reason #55 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it has had a consistent editorial perspective since its inception: a no-compromise approach to making home theatre the best that it can be. I have read the magazine cover to cover since Issue 2. Despite staff and reviewer changes over the years, thanks to Gary's leadership this perspective has never changed. As new technologies are introduced, Widescreen Review always provides in-depth analyses of not just the technology itself, but the political and industry forces that may be forcing compromises in its development. You have always sounded the clarion call to stop compression madness or any other madness that may force us to accept a home theatre experience that falls short of what it could be. Thank you!
