      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    John Hughes

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits image quality that surpasses any other available home video format for this title. Despite some dated characteristics, this is a nicely rendered DVD that will surely bring on flashbacks to the 80s! (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The 5.1 remastered soundtracks offer some welcome spatiality, mostly through the music but also on occasion with atmospheric effects. The audio is somewhat dated, slightly affecting the natural tonality of voices. Some low-end foundation for the music can be noticed, and the LFE channel is active throughout. Those who are fans of this movie know full well that much of the audio is of a quiescent nature. The DTS

    Reason #127 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review magazine because it gives not only in-depth reviews on equipment, as well as new technologies and technical breakthroughs, but also it has the best information on DVD movies in the world!!! Because I love movies so much (I own over 300 DVDs), Widescreen Review helps me decide which ones will look and sound the best without me having to rent hundreds of DVDs each month. The month is not complete without my copy of Widescreen Review magazine!!! Wish I would get two or three copies every month instead of one!!! Thank you for helping me with my passion!!!!
