      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    After going to the no-holds-barred bar mitzvah of Arnie Stein

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.82:1 DVD picture exhibits a somewhat hazy appearance, which leads to milky blacks and underwhelming shadow delineation. While details can be satisfyingly sharp at times, most of the picture looks smeared. Pixel breakup and edge enhancement can be noticed. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    Surround envelopment is generally limited to low-level music and effects in the Dolby
