      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    I

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.38:1 DVD exhibits deep blacks with good shadow delineation, which helps create a very dimensional-looking image. Colors are bold and vibrant, and while details are generally captured well, the picture can look slightly soft at times. Dark scenes look great, but daytime scenes can often look somewhat washed out. Pixel breakup can be noticed in bright scenes, and shimmering and edge enhancement can be somewhat distracting at times. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #21 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I received a DVD for Christmas and went to the newsstand to learn all about DVD movies and Widescreen TV. I picked up an entire different magazine and out of all of them, yours was the best. It is that simple. As a matter of a fact, I just subscribed to Widescreen Review.
