      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    If you didn't get enough laughs with "The Big Black Comedy Show" Volume 3, you'll be happy to know that "Volume 4" has arrived! Hosted by big white boy Ralphie May, this show was filmed on the west coast at The Wadsworth Theatre in Los Angeles, CA. (Tricia Spears)

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD picture delivers this stand-up comedy show with picture quality that is suitable for the content. Colors are nicely balanced, with vibrant stage lighting, nicely rendered fleshtones, and deep black backgrounds. The picture is generally sharp and detailed, though there are some soft edges and minor shimmering details. Depending on the source camera, occasional shots exhibit moir

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #18 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    There are, of course, a number of reasons why I read Widescreen Review. The primary one, however, is the excellent informative reviews and critiques on the latest DVD's, which are most helpful! In addition, there are many very informative articles on all aspects of home theatre, and I really view your magazine as an excellent resource for any home theatre owner in terms of ideas and excellent product information.
