      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    FBI agent Neville Flynn (Jackson) and his witness Sean Jones (Phillips) are on Pacific Air

    DVD Picture:
    With bright, vibrant hues and deep blacks, the anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture can be quite pleasing. Shadow delineation is impressive, and contrasts are well rendered. Details are not as sharp as the best DVD transfers, and minor edge enhancement can become bothersome. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #16 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read to try and find the best quality movies for sound and video. Too many movies these days have horrible sound and with today’s home theatres seem unacceptable. Also, equipment reviews are helpful.
