      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Ignacio (Black) is the cook, and a bad one at that, at the Mexican monastery where he grew up. With the institution in financial trouble, Ignacio decides it

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD picture exhibits a generally pleasing color balance, although fleshtones can look slightly orange and plugged up. Shadow delineation is adequate, and blacks are deep, but the overall picture does not have much dimensionality. Edge enhancement is noticeable, although it is generally mild. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:

    Reason #130 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review contains the most comprehensive information available on new products, market trends, and emerging technologies. Your detailed analysis of display and recording technologies sets the standard by which other industry publications should be measured. I purchase millions of dollars of A/V gear yearly, and Widescreen Review helps me keep up-to-date and ensure that the technologies that I am purchasing will not be obsolete in a year. New product reviews in Widescreen Review are both accurate and honest. If a product performs poorly, I want to know about it. Unlike other trade publications that give glowing reviews on every product, Widescreen Review can be counted on for the real story.
