      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Jake Green (Statham) is a grifter and hot shot gambler who has just been released from prison and is out for revenge. Macha (Liotta) is the cold-hearted gangster responsible for the death of Jake

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.34:1 DVD shows an inconsistent picture quality, with blacks that can be solid, or not, and details that can be nicely resolved, or not. Shadow delineation generally is good, but when the black levels are elevated, the image can look very flat with poorly developed details in the shadows. Colors can be nicely saturated with natural balance, but there are times when colors are somewhat washed-out or overly contrasted. Whites can also bloom at times. Pixelation is also problematic from time to time, and edge enhancement can be noticed at times, but it is very minor. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #10 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I have read and researched many so called hi-fi mags to find intelligent and well-balanced professional reviews on new home theatre equipment for my new house. Widescreen Review has, in my opinion, provided me with a no-bias approach to help me in building my new dream system. Widescreen Review is my primary resource for the latest news in DVD home theatre gear. And your Web Site is an excellent place, too.
