      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Sony Animation

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits well-rendered details and colors, but pixilation and edge enhancement can make a mess of some of the scenes. Depth is very impressive in nighttime scenes, but day scenes generally look rather flat. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #41 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I subscribed to WSR because I finished building my home theatre and no longer need to subscribe to magazines that give ideas on how to build a theatre. Widescreen Review focuses on the films I would like to see and the equipment I would like to upgrade. It is the next step to the home theatre experience.
