      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    R. Kelly, Mr. Show Biz himself (who could forget his pee

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 picture is rather soft, and the jerky camera transitions, while dizzyingly chaotic, actually match the music well; R. Kelly gives different amounts of time to each song, mixed into a fluid montage of music, while never actually completing them. The actual picture quality varies with the cameras used. Some show good shadow delineation and deep blacks, while most just deliver a field of dark gray without any real detail. The quality is typical of the average stage performance. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #130 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review contains the most comprehensive information available on new products, market trends, and emerging technologies. Your detailed analysis of display and recording technologies sets the standard by which other industry publications should be measured. I purchase millions of dollars of A/V gear yearly, and Widescreen Review helps me keep up-to-date and ensure that the technologies that I am purchasing will not be obsolete in a year. New product reviews in Widescreen Review are both accurate and honest. If a product performs poorly, I want to know about it. Unlike other trade publications that give glowing reviews on every product, Widescreen Review can be counted on for the real story.
