      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Rick Robinson (Gourley) is an intern for a large Miami law firm who dreams of becoming a full partner one day. With just five days to go before taking the bar exam, Rick's boss, Mr. McAllister (Hauer), asks a favor of him. The favor is Moving McAllister's beautiful but untouchable niece Michelle (Kunis) and her pet pig Dorothy to California. Along the way the mismatched pair encounter numerous obstacles and unforgettable characters. Among the strife of breakdowns and detours, Rick just might find true love and the key to his dreams.

    Reason #84 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Let me tell you a story about a man named Mike. Overwhelmed by components, can't believe marketing claims. And then one day while surfing on the net, up came a page with an interesting claim... Knowledge that is. Reference material. Widescreen Review. Well, the first thing you know old Mike's signed up. Getting monthly coverage and in-depth reviews. He thought Widescreen Review is what we all should read. So now I'm reading Joe Kane and spouting ISF calibration, that is. Image quality. SMPTE bars.
