    Story Synopsis:

    DVD Picture:
    The 2.35:1 DVD is not anamorphically enhanced and exhibits a picture that is generally unimpressive. While colors are generally balanced with accurate fleshtones, blacks are slightly weak. Aliasing problems are prevalent throughout, as well as edge enhancement. Images are sharp, but fine detail and definition are wanting. Some scenes are softly focused. Contrast and shadow delineation are mediocre. The picture is generally mediocre at best, with pixelization and distracting aliasing artifacts.

    Reason #127 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review magazine because it gives not only in-depth reviews on equipment, as well as new technologies and technical breakthroughs, but also it has the best information on DVD movies in the world!!! Because I love movies so much (I own over 300 DVDs), Widescreen Review helps me decide which ones will look and sound the best without me having to rent hundreds of DVDs each month. The month is not complete without my copy of Widescreen Review magazine!!! Wish I would get two or three copies every month instead of one!!! Thank you for helping me with my passion!!!!
