      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    When Ricky Barry (Mitchell) auditions his song at Ross Records he hopes to finally be on his way to the big time. The sexy Kennedy Ross (Bombay) is impressed with his tune but informs Ricky that all he's won is a position in the mail room. It isn't long, though, before Ricky realizes that he's been Ganked; Kennedy has stolen his song, and she isn

    DVD Picture:
    Shield your eyes from the vibrant colors on this DVD! Anamorphically enhanced at 2.00:1 (the jacket claims the aspect ratio is 1.78:1), the DVD presents colors that can border fluorescent proportions. Fleshtones can be nicely rendered, and blacks are deep and solid. Images can be sharp with adequate details, though fine textures are lacking and the picture can appear somewhat smeared at times. Edge enhancement is not a problem, but there is minor occasional pixelization. The hand-held camerawork can be dizzying. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Reason #100 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I primarily read WSR for unbiased information concerning the future of HD DVD. Articles are written in such a way that the average consumer can understand the technology and benefits of HD DVD. It's nice to be able to read articles from purist videophiles/audiophiles who clearly state their opinion on technologies/products with clear, understandable supporting information. When I read WSR, I have no doubt that the information within is complete and accurate. It's a publication I can TRUST!
