    Story Synopsis:

    DVD Picture:
    The 1.82:1 DVD is not anamorphically enhanced. The transfer is sourced from a print, with images rather soft in appearance, even the opening titles. The picture has a pasty, unnatural quality with colors that appear washed out in the brighter scenes. Yellow is a prominent hue in fleshtone rendering. Clarity is wanting, as colors tend to bleed. Film grain is revealed, but artifacts and aliasing problems can be distracting. Even though the picture is nothing impressive, the special features make it a fun DVD to own.

    Reason #56 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I am most interested in the formats (audio) of DVDs. I buy a DVD, and then it is re-introduced in a deluxe package some time later. I am not that interested in the extras, but the DVD is invariably upgraded in sound. This is usually DTS ES surround but in some cases DTS ES 6.1 (discrete). Most reviews (Home Theater, Stereophile Guide To Home Theater, Sound And Vision) do not address this situation. I am subscribing to Widescreen Review, hopefully, to solve this problem. I am looking forward to my first issue and a long relationship with your magazine.
