      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    When Nick Persons (Ice Cube) falls for the beautiful Suzanne Kingston (Long), he has no idea what's in store for him. The single mother of two isn't nearly as tough to win over as her kids, Lindsey (Aleisha Allen) and Kevin (Philip Daniel Bolden) are. And when Nick has to take the two little darlings on a road trip to Vancouver, he turns out to be the one screaming

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.82:1 DVD picture offers a vibrant and well balanced color palette, with accurate fleshtones and deep blacks. The night scenes are very nicely rendered, with colorful Christmas lights popping from the darkness. Images are mostly sharp and detailed, though some scenes have a slightly soft appearance. Pixelization is occasionally noticed, but edge enhancement is not a problem with this title. Overall, the picture is quite pleasing throughout. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #23 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    There are so many good reasons why I read Widescreen Review. It is one of the best magazines on the current market about electronic gadgets. It is informative, precise, and contains up-to-the-minute information on all the things that you will ever need to know about electronics in the twentieth century.
