      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Michael Newman (Sandler) is a workaholic who never seems to have time for his wife (Beckinsale) and kids. Television is the only pleasure he allows himself, so he goes in search of a universal remote to make viewing easier. After an eccentric character (Walken) gives Michael the latest and greatest gadget to use, he discovers that it will control more than just the television. With just one Click of a button, Michael can turn off barking dogs, fast forward through moments he wants to avoid, and even travel back and forth in time. But when the remote seems to be controlling Michael more than Michael is controlling the remote, he knows it

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits well-saturated colors and good shadow delineation for a pleasing picture. Some pixilation and minor edge enhancement is apparent, but it only becomes a distraction in the wider shots. Color balance is generally good, although fleshtones tend to be slightly red. (Danny Richelieu)

    WSR is the most authoritative source on video and film issues. Their staff is well-informed, well-connected, and highly respected in the industry. The articles are informative, timely, and well-written. I use past issues as a resource for informing friends, co-workers, and customers on what's hot and what's not!
