      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    With nearly twenty minutes of material restored to this Anniversary Edition of the Visual Effects Oscar

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced and windowboxed 1.66:1 DVD exhibits a well-restored picture that shows little sign of its age. Colors are rich and vibrant, with nicely rendered fleshtones and deep blacks. Though some scenes are slightly hazy, images are sharp and detailed throughout. The animated scenes are solid and smooth, with excellent color saturation. Film grain and source element artifacts are apparent, but are neither excessive nor distracting for the film

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #102 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I just recently started a home theatre business called Celestial Audio Video. Widescreen Review plays an important part for many reasons. Not only can I keep up with new trends and new technologies, I can understand better, and I am able to also explain to customers about forth-coming products. The in-depth and detail of your articles are not only appreciated but needed. In short, on a professional level your publication is a must-read every month. On a personal level, I enjoy the DVD reviews, the monthly feedback, and editor's couch. I would also like to see more reviews on DVD concerts. As far as I'm concerned, your magazine is top notch for home theatre, unsurpassed by none and stands in a class by itself. A true reference quality publication.
