      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Global warming. Melting glaciers. Record-breaking hurricanes and floods. Life-threatening droughts. They pepper the headlines of our newspapers and our evening news programs almost daily. But how much do we really know? How bad is it...really? Spend the next 90-plus minutes with Al Gore

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD picture exhibits a varied quality, as can be expected from a collection of different sources. In general, the picture is slightly smeared, although adequately well resolved. Blacks are deep, and good shadow delineation can make for a dimensional image, but noticeable edge enhancement can flatten the image. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #8 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review summarizes the information I need to make informed decisions about DVD purchases. My DVD library is growing by leaps and bounds, and it's great to have WSR let me know when I may be disappointed with a disc before I buy it. I also like the new DVD release list to let me know what's ahead. On top of that, reading WSR is a great way to keep abreast of new technologies. Sometimes the interviews with those who bring these technologies to market give more insight into the overall demands and future directions of the market.
